- In part 2 of the New Bike Special, we take a look at my 1968 Honda CT90 K0 trail bike.
This is one of the first CT90 models to have the switchable hi-lo range gearbox, giving 8 gears in total. There's quite a bit to do to get it roadworthy, but nothing insurmountable.
Tasks to complete:
- New wiring loom (make one and fit it)
- Rebuilt rear wheel
- Fit new tyres
- Fit battery
- Fit new cables all round
- Un-bend brake pedal and footpegs
- Repair ripped seat
- Get it road registered (in progress, waiting for DVLA)
- Flush out petrol tank
- Replace fuel hoses
- Clean out the carb
- Put some oil in it
- See if it starts
- Learn to wheelie

Oh ya I forgot . Thank you for posting !
I own an '68 , '67 and a '65 . The '67 first year ohc last year dual sprockets. My late father upgraded the '67 to dual range one sprocket . I built a '68 up for a friend from spares , it has dual range and dual sprockets. The weak link with these bikes is the fuel tank leaking at the mounts . Next the muffler is always going to be rotted out to some extent. The front dampeners are not , and since you can't rebuild them or purchase new ones never will be. I doubt they ever worked . 50/50 the rectifier is bad along with all the light bulbs and the battery which if not in top shape will cause the bike to run poorly . I have much more to share . I have owned many many 90's . I ride my '68 year round . It has been places it was never intended to go . Great bike !
