Okay, I usually love your videos, but the rat extraction was gratuitous and I forwarded past it. Gross. Time to take off top end, and best case is just changing the rings. More likely, you'll wind up having to bore the cylinder the cylinder for a larger cylinder and new rings. Hopefully the valves and seals are in good shape. Also, I replaced my battery with a LiFPO on my CT90 and I'm very happy with it. The connections required minor modifications, and I needed to add some spacers/filler in the battery compartment, but its about half the weight, no fluids and never needs maintenance. Good luck.

Disgusting 😂😂

Disgusting 😂😂

Looks like Micky Rat is freeze dried.

Over 1000 subs! Good on you. Best content on the web.

Perhaps it’s where previous owner stored his lunch… he just plain forgot about it?

Time to pull it apart maybe some new rings and it will be good m8

Tough luck! But these motors seem straightforward to pull apart and I guess spares are plentiful? I settled down to watch this eating an apple… that rat carcass just about did it for me! Oh well.. still want to see Barney running well and out for some fun, so I’ll endure the rats and watch future episodes. Always interesting, thank you. Les 🇬🇧

hello .what is the problem before?

Any tips for removing those clutch basket screws. Mine are seized and I’m worried if I go to hard I’ll strip them.

Will it run? The Postie Master General is on it! It doesn't have a chance against the Postie Master General!

Great video buddy ride safe

Excellent! Barny lives.

My wife and I each have 1984 CT110s. I very recently cleaned the carburetor on hers and then, almost immediately, I began to have what I thought was a petcock problem. Now, after watching your video, I see that I inadvertently reversed the gas lines. I had no idea that the ribbed gas line was the reserve line which should be on top. In fact, I didn't even notice one was ribbed! (I'm 70 years old and not quite as sharp as I used to be.) As I continued watching you work on Barney, you pointed out how the insulater goes on only one way correctly. Well, I had it installed properly on her bike, but now I can see that on my bike, I have it upside down. My bike seemed to run fine, although it was always harder to start than hers. Now I know why! Your video solved one problem I knew I had, but hadn't quite figured it out yet. Your video also solved another problem that I didn't realize I had. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Looking forward to your next Barney video. Your superfan in Tennessee.

I got an 84' with the dual transmission, awesome little bikes! They just never die, but a little love goes a long, long way!

Great bikes, good video! Thanks. PS, loved the ducklings! Keep those Kookaburras at bay!! Les 🇬🇧

You have to love a Honda m8

Hi mate hope all is well . We’re heading of on another nullabore run again . A question to the guru …. All my bikes are around 120 psi compression . Is this too low ?

Gday Free Ranger…. Hoping to pick your brain a little ….. my postie has developed a similar sound however is a very young motor (less than 10k)…. The noise only happens when in gear and in motion. If I apply the brakes to prevent forward movement I do not hear the noise when the throttle is opened. Kinda makes me think it might be a gearbox issue. Any thought or advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Tony

I have the same bike. Mine is an 81 ag model. Same indicators and colour is tahitian red. Check the date on the steering head. I have converted the points to cdi. Soon as I put it back together will send some photos. Cheers Bruce Longhurst. ORANGE NSW

EVERY bike is an adventure bike! Oh Yes!! Thanks for the patient and consistently informative videos. Les 🇬🇧

Thanks for the great video! It’s very helpful. I’ve got a ‘67 CL90 that a previous owner added a sub transmission to. It was leaking oil out the gasket and in an effort to fix it I disassembled it and replaced the gasket. Now when reassembling, when I tighten the bolts it locks up the drive train. When I loosen the bolts, it spins freely. Any ideas on what I’m missing?

Used thread files often when I worked in a garage (1960s!!) Great tools.

Hi, I’m afraid my eyes glaze over with engines but my son-in-law is a motorbike rider, on his dairy farm and on the road. Just checking up on you! Hope you’re doing well!

Could you retap the clutch outer threads to the next size, or use a helicoil? Love your videos- I have learnt so much.

fencing wire, lol...love it...the farmer's version of duct tape I guess! 😉😉😁😁😂😂

I see a little bit of rust...maybe the bath wasn't such a good idea...I'm just kidding, lol

looks 100 percent better after its first bath!

Thanks for this. It’s a very practical upgrade, though you do have to watch you’re not dazzling on-coming drivers. Her in the UK I have an Innova (ANF125) and I’ve modified the electrics to give me DC all the way, then fitted separate LED lights, two cheap Amazon-sourced units (£25 UK for two, and surprisingly good) one for dipped beam, one for main. Then added two USA Rigid Industries “Ignite” units (very expensive at £73 each) to a top bar. Incredibly good though, but dazzle IS certainly an issue! Thanks for videos! Les 🇬🇧

"This bike followed me home. Wasn't my fault". - Every motorcycle owner ever love it!!

Fun find, looks like it's in nice restorable shape! I got lucky a few years back here in Canada and found an 83 110 (CDI version) in a local basement, encrusted in 30+ years of dust and grime, but when I washed it it emerged as an almost factory-fresh bike, no rust, clean original red paint, and all parts intact. After I cleaned the jelly out of the engine and put in fresh oil etc it started on the 2nd kick, still have it in the country and rode it 2 days ago! Your signal lights are not like mine, yours look possibly aftermarket (edit: apparently not) unless they have different versions down under, and your seat is not original either (looks more comfortable!). The only problem I'm having with mine is the bloody 6v battery lasts a season at best then starts blowing all the lightbulbs when it loses its "voltage regulator" functionality, I currently only have a functioning N lamp. Bulbs are expensive and hard to find here, have to go to USA, I'd love to find an alternative to those crappy factory Yuasa-type batteries. Cheers and looking forward to the next video :)

Great video buddy ride safe

Good luck with the new bike! I look forward to the next episodes. My CT110 is a 1984. They only sold these from 1980-86 in the states. Beginning in 1981 they all have the High/Low gear box. Beginning in 1982 (I believe) they went over to CDI/electronic ignition in the states, and they changed the carb to have the larger bowl at that time. So my 1984 has both CDI and the H/L gearbox (and it now has an original carb with the large bowl.) It also has the same Speedo/Odo set up as yours. (Whereas the Postie bikes moved the speedo up higher so you could have a front rack and not block the speedo, and the CT90 also has a trip meter.) Finally, all of the CT110s in the US were sold street legal, and I ride mine around town regularly. I find I use the H/L gear box on my CT90, but the 110 has enough power/torque that I don't really use it. But, it is nice to have (especially off-road when riding with a partner on the CT90 if it is in low gear.) The CT110 in low gear can climb anything. Anything. Again, good luck and I look forward to seeing the adventure of getting it back on the road.

The indicator s were always chrome

We had 4 of them on the farm,,they were really handy because you need a clutch lever

Love your videos! Looking forward to watching you get this bike up and running. Keep up the GREAT work!

That looks a decent find. Best of luck with that rattle! I used to own a much newer AG model and it had been delivered new with two side stands but no centre stand.

A kind heart picking up strays and giving them a good home.

Good luck looking forward to how you get on with it m8

As a USA rider, this is interesting to learn more about AG bikes sold in Australia. 1982-newer USA models are fitted with CDI and a 4 wire, full wave rectifier under the frame tube, behind the triple tree. Engine looks same as a USA 1981 model with 2-wire rectifier and points ignition. Similar indicators have been spotted on DAX (CT70) and Z50 models, and likely have 15mm sockets with small glass globes. Amazing it has a plate and could pass rego. Good luck getting it running well and sorted!

Ag version...that's pretty interesting!

Congrats mate! Thanks for all your help rebuilding my bike :)

Fantastic explanation. Thanks

Tech question: Is the CT110 ADR as sought after as the original CT90 HiLo and were there any problems to look out for?

You fitted the circling the wrong way round, the rounded edges should be fitted towards the heat with the square edges towards the outside ,so the circuit is more secure, less likely to come of ,other wise a good video

Great video glad you know what ya doing ride safe buddy

Struggling to get the circlip back on after replacing the gearbox seal. Is there two different seals? Could you help at all?

This is the best series for keeping any postie bike running. Very complete, from a real mechanic, not just a shop but a real old school mech. 10 stars!
