Low'N'Slow's Honda CD90 Commuter

[My name is Russell]

Cant really claim this being my owen work, Jason has done a sweet job on all the important stuff!

Been Commuting last two weeks with it, something different to taking the C90 to work.

Changed back to foot shift for wellington trafic

Welded up a stand, not quite up to wellington winds turned out so will have another go.

Put the tank sealer through it

Welded up brackets for Solo seat tonight

Fitted new fuel cock

Welded on 4 indicators

Made a cage for battery to saddle in

Fitted LED headlight and tailight, think the regulator is toast so just running LED bulbs of battery for now.

Tightened and lernt how to straighten rims

New intake carb and filter

New tank badges

Added headight shroud that wing broke off when bike got dropped

Welded tank bracket

Narrowed bars

Painted zorst pipe and added some baffle

Old Ignition switch chopped and new one added

Spark plug tightener made for covers.

Super impressed with how well the brakes work on this thing! Jase made a dope zorst pipe sounds so crisp. New carb and inlet makes motor pur at idle, something I really appreciate with number of lights i have to sit in. Will get the same settup for the C90.

Would white walls look wrong with knobbly tyres?

Any paintshoppers around?

[Hayholes mum]

I guarantee that if you do not put a 140cc engine in this straight away, you will develop AIDS.

[KIRK]

white walls would look yuck imo. looks cool. how do you make drum brakes work? iduno if mine work properly cos I've only realy riden disk brake bikes in he past. either way drums suck lol

[Hayholes mum]

Ahhh. Perfect.

[BlownCorona]

pretty sure thats aready a brand new lifan 125?

[KKtrips]

But 125 is only 12hp. A 140 is 18 or something.

[Hayholes mum]

And turbo it.. Turn it into a real chilf magnet.

[Leebo3]

Wow this is a real surprise. Straight outa left field. Looks cool Chris Russell Wells.

Had a blow out today, first major failure in 6 odd months of ridding yeah yeah not bad Jase dog! 

 

Heart ridding this thing, get so many comments from old dudes, rules. Beats plastic any day!

 

Thanks for being my knight it blue armor steelies with your trusty steed, new appreciation for small vans, sweet Hog transporters. 

 

Need to wire up a new voltage regulator presume the old ones gone as getting voltage surge had just been running of battery but getting bit dark all the time now, they difficult to wire up? recommend models/wiring Methodz100? daaa cant be bothered winter sucks 

[Rookie]

I got a 4 wire 12v one of trademe, super easy to wire up, yellow and pink are the alt, red is +12v and green is ground.

[My name is Russell]

Cool cool thanks Rookie!

[My name is Russell]

Love ridding this bike, but today i am extremely great-full i made it out of A&E the same night with just a few stitches. 

 

Have the frame apart and was about to start copping it up to weld on some stuff to make a SS50 leg work but James has just saved the day! 

 

 

 

[tortron]

damage from sliding into a curb is it?

[My name is Russell]

Nope didn't hit a curb, just to fast.

 

Starting to think Tyre must have wedged up into the guard also.

 

Difficult to see it that pic but has a nice fold in it.  

[Chris.QCR]

Front guards are lame! off with it!

[My name is Russell]

Almost got this back together less a front guard. just need to re lace the front wheel now dow! unless its bent other parts of the rim 

[thegreatestben]

Maybe consider some better tires!

[My name is Russell]

Went for a ride
