Default Reliving my childhood. Still Honda Fan

Thought I would share this with the Forum. I had this same bike when I was a kid and always wanted to get another. I recently purchased this 1971 CT Trailbike. It has been slightly customized with a aftermarket pipe and it has 88cc vs the original 70cc's. I love riding this hog around the neighborhood. I get a lot of people stopping me to confirm its an old CT and telling me how they had one as a kid. I'm still a Honda fan to this day.

1993 CBR 900RR
1971 Honda CT 70 (88)

Ok, now that's interesting, what I see there is a Honda Z, one of the survey firms I worked for back in the 80's had one.

Fold down the bars, sling it in the back of the station wagon and at the end of the days work you had a natty little bike to go back and pick up the car with.

In NZ a "CT" is one of those "step thru" trailies that all the postmen use.
