I came across a 1969 Honda trail 90 AKA known as the CT90 today before i came home from work.
i checked craigslist just before i shut down this afternoon and saw that an ad popped up from a guy no more than 20 minutes away about 7 hours before.
i gave the nice guy a shout and said if he still had it, i was coming to get it!
He said Come On Down, like ol' Monty Hall(from the Price is Right fame) used to say..
i Showed up 18 minutes later and loaded er up.
then proceeded to kick tires and tell lies for a few minutes, before headin' back to the shop, where i can hide the CT90 until Christmas Eve.
this will be a gift to my son for Christmas.
there is much work to be done to make the bike work reliably again, as it has not seen fresh gasoline in more than 5 years.
i have already purchased parts for the bike and await their arrival.
i'll be cataloging and sharing the experience as a father/son project
