got my CT back together
1982 Honds CT 70 that is. When the say "Honda Copy" they mean in looks only. I used the 88cc big bore kit. I still need a pipe because the Ebay honda copy pipe did not fit the stock Honda head. And I need a Carb, that I will get off of Ebay. Also the electronic Ignition that was suppose to be bolt on did not fit either. So I had to put new points back on it. Still need tires and a few other goodies. I wish it had the old style cool folding handlebars but I guess that was on the early years. Still will make a nice pit bike. Here is an unfinished pic.

Those are fun little neighborhood bikes for sure. Getting a little hard to find now and day's too.
Are you planning on doing a full resto on it ?

I had not planned a full resto but just get it back with everything working. I looked at the 124cc engines on Ebay and a couple of websites but most of them said the frame would have to be modified to fit it? This way it still has the factory 3 speed trans and all honda parts. I would love to fit it with the older front end that had the folding bars and the speedo/headlight in one. plus it needs the older chrome fenders.

I had a '77 model CT70........bone stock head to toe, but being a centrifugal clutch you really had to pop it into 1st gear while winding the throttle to get wheelies out of it
