A full ground-up, concourse level restoration has been undertaken on this rare yellow 1968 K0 Honda CT90 trail bike. The 1968 K0 models are rare in that they still have the leading axle front forks but also have the dual range sub transmission (and were only produced in this configuration for around 18 months). Yellow CT90’s of this era were also far less common than the red models. No expense has been spared on the restoration and the bike now presents as new, just as it would have appeared on the Honda showroom floor in 1968. Details of the restoration are listed below: Motor Cases, head, barrel and covers bead-blasted New bearings New timing chain New NOS Honda timing chain guides New NGK D6EA spark plug New oil seals and gaskets throughout All screws replaced with new correct PH3 Philips head screws Side covers painted with 2 coats of heatproof engine enamel, followed by 3 coats of BASF “Glasurit” 2K Clear Fresh Honda engine oil Electrical Original coil and condenser used New NOS genuine Honda contact breaker points New 6V AGM battery New bulbs in all fittings Original correct Stanley headlight Original correct Stanley taillight New 6V horn (original horn comes with bike) Original speedo refurbished (showing a genuine 2755 miles since new) Wheels New chrome plated rims New chrome plated spokes New bearings in both hubs New brake shoes Hubs and brake plates polished New drive chain New OEM front sprocket New Kenda tyres Frame/Painted parts Frame sandblasted then etch primed All other parts stripped back to bare metal All parts re-sprayed with: 2 coats of etch primer 2 coats of BASF “Glasurit” 2K primer 3 coats of BASF “Glasurit” 2K top coat Suspension Front forks completely overhauled New fork stop rubbers and bushes New rear reproduction shock absorbers Seat Original seat base repainted New reproduction seat cover Plated parts All OEM Honda nuts, bolts and brackets re-plated by Gold Coast Electroplating All chrome plated parts re-chromed by A Class Metal Finishers SA All spring and flat washers replaced with new Stainless Steel washers Carburettor Fully disassembled, ultrasonically cleaned, then rebuilt with a new Japanese rebuild kit Exhaust system New complete reproduction exhaust system (the original exhaust will come with the bike) Re-chromed exhaust heat shields New stainless steel screws Rubber parts/Cables New NOS genuine Honda handgrips Hew NOS Honda kickstart rubber New NOS Honda pillion peg rubbers New NOS grey front brake, rear brake, throttle and speedometer cables Happy to arrange freight/bike transport at buyer’s expense CT90, CT110, Postie bike, CT Trail
