“It’s a Honda” classic line when you get an old one running. Fun to see an old bike like that running.

Haha yeah, pretty impressive considering the design technology they were using back then.

I have a 83 CT110 and 2 2008 CT110’s (all Australian models) but I really want one of these beauties. Almost non existent over here. We see so many early C models in unbelievable condition in the US. Very envious.

I just got my first CT200 Trail 90, about a 64-65. It looks like yours. Yours is geared in the low range. If you look at the rear sprocket, you have basically a high and low. Here is a quote from another website. The ’64 was the first year for the bike. It said Honda 90 on it, but was VIN plated a CT200 and went by that name for a number of years. The distinguishing characteristic of it was the rear dual sprocket. It has one chain ring mounted on top of the other and two master links on the chain. If you were headed for a mountain romp or trollop through the streams, the large gear was in order. At the end of the day when you wanted to get home fast, unbolt the gear, mount it behind the other, take the chain apart, store the extra pieces and cruise. By the end of the 60s, Honda did away with this feature and added a high/low switch next to the foot peg to save you the trouble.

Amazing dual sports - iconic story of Cub modifications in the states and Honda paid attention to make trails. The power of dreams.

I think this is the first one I've ever seen in person. However the first bike I ever road was from the same era, but it was a pedal style moped haha.

I remember when we first got this bike running in early aughts. I think there were three bikes total, with all their parts combined we got a running bike. We had to pull the kick starter off another bike for this one, and i remember we created a veritable bolt sheer. Everything we tried to use to connect the kick starter to the motor resulted in sheered bolts. iirc we had to drill a second hole to give it two points of contact. Sweet video and glad to see big bro out there doing his thing.

I also think this was referred to the trail model because it came with the extra large gear that gets bolted on. Maybe I should convince him to take it off and rechain it. I bet it would go 45mph+

I think I cut that part out but he'd mentioned the bolt for the kick starter got messed up at some point. Once we took it off he couldn't find any problems though, I guess that must be why! Haha.

I believe it's a 67 or early 68. They went to the low range option before the update to the telescopic fork.

Not a '68, yours has earlier trail gear setup like the '65 I once had.

I was wrong, yours is an early 68, there was a later 68 with gear switch like on mine.
