The Ultimate Honda Trailbike Tech Thread (possible NSFW)

[semlin]

you need to check this out




all joking aside, this is a serious thread for collecting tech on small SOHC honda trailbikes. Things like parts links, info links and tech discussions. I have a 1965 CT200, a 1973 CT90 and a 1983 CT70. Feel free to post up content or questions about these and similar bikes.

Very nice old Honda gallery site with some excellent year/model info.

I found out my ST90 is a K1 model and only came in yellow that year.

I found a source for manuals, reprints of the actual factory manuals I think.

Go to World of Powersports 800-432-8937 and download their "Parts Numbers of Honda Manuals", which is a PDF, and write down the part numbers for your service manual and owner's manual. Then go to their "Order by Part #" page and enter those numbers.

Shipping is kinda steep but my factory service manual is only $6.03

I fall for it every time. I still suck - but I suck less!

Remember the shocks I installed on the '79 CT90 during TUTaPII? Well, I just installed another identical set on the '70 CT90 and got the very same positive result. With my weight, these new shocks (purchased off eBay) have been a perfect replacement for tired OEM shocks. Here's a link: eBay Motors: NEW HONDA CT70 CHROME REAR SHOCKS (CT70, CT90) (item 370080418398 end time Aug-31-08 11:32:23 PDT)

Sean, I think that since these work on the CT70's, they'll also work on the ST90 too. I did have to knock out the metal section that they have installed in the rubber bushing on the upper end; however, that was no problem (much easier with your equipment though.)

for a site full of minibike geeks (kind of low on CT90 info) try Planet Minis

theres a vintage section, and a for sale section, a few guys on there have some nice z50/monkey builds, replicas.

Razzo Moto - Honda Mini Trail Restorations, Parts has some nice bikes on it.
