You tricked me the other night when you posted a pristine example of this. Nice little bike.

Sorry, when I said a twin I didn't mean a cosmetic twin!

I'm pretty sure when I look at them online that even though it's not pristine, I could likely at least double my original investment from 1974!

Thanks a lot Carl. Now I'm going to have to get a project bike. 

That thing is sweet! And the beauty of Honda, is you should be able to get pretty much everything mechanical from the dealer. and all the rest on line.

But that bike doesn't look like it needs much at all, it looks to be in great shape!

 Carl buys a B body Canadian Poncho post and swaps engines along with doing an "original" 4 speed conversion.

 Mark "  "  "  " .......................................................................................................................................!

Carl says time to restore a 46 year old Honda.

Mark  "      "     ".............. ...........old bike!

So if Carl says he's gonna go jump off a cliff................... (did mothers actually ask their kids that?)

Did you have the 90 road legal Carl?

 You betcha. I licensed it the day I bought it and drove it that summer, back and forth to work etc from the farm, about 4 miles each way. Comfortable cruising speed is only about 40 mph though. I did have it up to 55 one day back then, vicious tail wind and my head down between the handlebars! I don't think I licensed it ever again after that and just rode it out in the country, back roads etc.

 You bought it new?

 one year old in 1975, had 6,000 miles on it

 Oh, you were the rich kid down the street that could afford all the cool toys! I was pumping gas for $1.25/hr to pay for my ST90.....! (seriously)

I can't believe what they are going for even unrestored. Guess a lot of guys like us are looking back on those days now. 

You do know you'll have to document the whole thing now Carl.

I hate to say it guys but early teenagers look good on a Honda 90 but old men do not.

 Fixed.

True. I stopped taking my Batman toys out to the playground sandbox last Summer.

Neat! What brand is it?
