This is a beautifully and tastefully executed mini Cafe Racer build starting with a 1970 Honda CL90 as pictured. It has won Best of Show and Best Cafe Racer at a local bike show in Raleigh 2 years ago. It has been about 2.5 years since the build was completed. I did ride it every once in a while (maybe 300 miles in total) and it will do 60mph quite easily, but I preferred to have it sit in a visible spot in the shop so I could just look at it. The lines are classic cafe racer and 60's inspired, reminiscent of Angel Nieto winning six 50cc world championships. The bike was meant to be a permanent feature in my shop and so I paid attention to every single detail as you can see in the pictures. Every part was disassembled inspected, powder coated, refinished or replaced and reassembled to bring it back to better than new condition. Due to the old 6V electronics the flashers/turn signals do not work, however they are not required in NC and I was planning to remove them. Has a minor oil leak underneath the motor where the drain bolt sits, only weeps a little when you ride it. I give it a 9.5 out of 10 due to the few small issues mentioned. The engine/motor is from a 1970 Honda SS90, is all original and has only around 6000 miles on it. It has excellent compression and runs like a top, no issues whatsoever. It currently has a non OEM replacement carburetor on it which works quite well. Can be a little hard to start if you had it sit for months at a time like I did, but eventually starts and will then start first kick every time. I will also include the original carburetor in the sale if you prefer to keep it closer to original, however you will have a hard time finding parts for it. The original donor bike gauge was refurbished and reused and it currently shows 22965 miles (6000 on motor) which in itself speaks volumes for the durability of these little work horses. Since my shop is now filled to the brim with custom bikes, the time has come to part with some of my builds to make room for new projects. Please feel free to ask questions. It has a clear and clean title. Buyer arranges shipping or local pickup only.
