I was mulling around on ebay the other day and ran across an item that caught my eye. With only 33 minutes left and zero bids I knew this one was for me. So I sat there for a while and decided that I would go ahead and bid even though I havent even finished my motor trike project yet:(.

and this is my next project:

Ebay item: 230157995080

60's era Honda 110 50cc motorcycle, for much less than trying to put together my trike I snatched up what I think will be tons of fun. :)

Much cheaper than a Whizzer style bike which I have been wanting to build.

Let me know if any of you have owned one of these or have any opinions on them, looks like I'll be picking it up sunday.:)

We had two Honda C70's when we were kids. They were awesome and I agree that they are the greatest motorcycle ever, very reliable! They only went 45mph but that is fast enough for the backroads. I would like to find another one and use it for long distance tours. Well OK, just for cruising around town but you can dream. I heard that one was driven Alaska to Patagonia.

If you have problems with the motor, you can try Lifan replacement motors.

I had a CT70 and the first mod I did was replace that doofy handlebar to BMX bars. It was pretty cool.
Not to play the better than game,but bicycle motor bikes>scooters.
