We found a Honda C90 from 1968 in a garage. It had been standing for 52 years since 1972. The previous owner bought it new in the UK and used it to commute to work and then parked it up in 1972 when he had his first child and got a car. There it sat ever since then. In this video we restore the lovely scooter to a running condition and find some surprises along the way!
This Honda C90, which is similar to a Honda C70 and Honda C50, didn't really need a full Motorcycle Restoration. It was in remarkable condition given how long it had been standing. We like restoring these old bikes, its something we used do as kids. If you like motorcycle restorations, we hope you like this one. We just do it for fun!
We are both very mechanically minded. We've been friends since school and enjoy riding and repairing motorbikes from the 1970s and 1980s mainly.
Enjoy!
