Honda C90 First Ride After 10 Years in a Shed!

Latest little project ready for the new season

[@alwaysinsideout]

It's not the bikes we ride that makes us true motorbikers. It's the love of motorcycling. 👍

[@user-eq7su3ec8g]

A lot of Honda in Thailand. It fun ride and safe money.I have 3 in my home.

At becoming a 76 year old a few days from this writing, I must wonder if your thoughtful video of the "glorious" C-90 cub might be the closest I get to actually riding one again ! Thank You so much for another nostalgic Honda Cub video. Greetings once again to all from Ontario, Canada.

Don’t be afraid, go out and get a small bike and have some (mild?) adventures! I re-started my motorcycling aged… 73 I think. I’m now a week away from my 78th birthday, have a 1992 Serow (Yamaha XT225) and a stripped 2006 Honda Innova (ANF125) and I’m really enjoying my bimbles round the Welsh countryside and playing at adapting the bikes in my garage. It really is not too late! Les in UK 🇬🇧

Many years ago I saw a documentary abut Iconic Bikes. Racers were asked their opinion, King Kenny (Roberts) suggested the Cub for a multiple of reasons. Your in good company apparently 👍

Beautiful bike, lovely country, fun presenter. Keep up the videos :) Just subscribed.

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing. I had a Honda C70 years ago and used to ride to Bangor and back on it with my ex wife. Fun days. We both loved it. I think that a lot of fun can be had on smaller capacity motorcycles. Keep sharing, great stuff.👍😁

[@philiphuw]

I live 200 miles away, but know this road so well. Climbed Crow Castle earlier this year. As a fellow C90 owner, I am very jealous. It’s a beautiful part of the world.

[@bobi2582]

Being a teenager in the 1970's I had a C50 to go to work on. Loved it and regretted selling it for ( £1 a c.c.) £50! My Dad got back into motorcycling in the late 70's a bought a brand new C90. Very jealous! A friend had a C70 which went very well. I don't know if I would get one again, but this video certainly is making me think!

Good work mate. I recently did something similar, reviving my little Honda CG125 after it also spent 10 years in a shed. It's a good feeling seeing these little bikes back on the road again, as they're meant to be.

[@thatwelshman4518]

Would love a CG, did my test on one when I was 17 or 18 👍

[@scottpeter5704]

Wonderful, nostalgic, sweet vids, mate, thanks! One of your commenters asked where it is, I looked up and its Crow Castle, or Castell Dinas Brân. Could you leave the whereabouts of these wonderful rides in the desccription to your vids? (Or do you fear the area becoming overrun with fans on C90s? 🤣

[@thatwelshman4518]

Haha I just forget, they’re great roads but for me it’s where I’ve lived all my life

[@ianseddon9347]

I was about to sell my C90….. after 5 years of little adventures, maybe I should think again! Glorious roads in your films, thank you. Where about in wales are you filming?

[@thatwelshman4518]

footage is around Llangollen area. Thanks for watching :)

[@jimmeltonbradley1497]

I once owned a grey and white 1972 C90 back in the 80s. It was my commuter bike when i lived and worked in London. However, i also used to drive it to and from Cambridge at weekends. The old A10 was perfect, even though, legally, i could have used the M11. Such a great bike. Economical and reliable.

[@NeillWylie]

Well in Sam. That's the first bike I ever rode on. Great memories.

[@thatwelshman4518]

Aye first one I ever roads with gears on and crashed it 😂 this is my third in the last few years. Nice and simple to work on

[@ragarse3]

Cracking little bike - my next bike the 125, struggling with age to get my leg over my own bike. Mixed emotions but i know the cub wont let me down. Good on yer pal, power to your e;bow.

[@traildogmegllangollen6286]

[@sarmaaluru2649]

I am from India. These step through bikes are suitable for elderly people. Light and easy to use. I would live to have one. Unfortunately can’t, as these kind are not marketed here. Hero Honda marketed one in late ‘90s. Failed attempt.

[@ichosethishandle]

Say, that's a nice bike

[@adrianvanheems8041]

I'm amazed you've managed to keep it going. I had a 50 in the Sixties and spare parts were almost impossible to get then, so it must be even worse now.

[@thatwelshman4518]

Still a fair few of the 12v c90’s like mine around and even more aftermarket parts available. Although lots of them are very poor quality. Pre 81 models are harder to find spares etc for

[@user-cy6yc6tb3t]

Class Sam

[@jahselasie7269]

Great video. Got a couple of those, including a red one - great bikes. Replacing the shocks makes a big difference (think i’ve got cb125 ones)

[@openureyes]

Fantastic

[@thatwelshman4518]

Thanks for Watching! More videos coming soon :)

[@user-pc2dz3bd3u]

I was on those roads with a Hayabusa over the weekend. Maybe should have something smaller like a C90 for little runs.

[@thatwelshman4518]

I’ll race ya! 🤣

[@EpicAdamMotovlogs]

My mate is selling his c90 for £1k with no mot. I'm tempted because it doesn't cost much to fix.

[@thatwelshman4518]

I paid about the same for this one, easy enough to fix most things on them and plenty of aftermarket parts around 👍

Sold it and my other cub. Money needed elsewhere unfortunately, Someone else enjoying it now

[@malcolmstewart3109]

@@thatwelshman4518 Ah, that's life. (It was largely as a result of watching your videos that I bought my Sertao - I wanted something taller than the Himalayan too, as a first 'big bike'. So far it's been an excellent choice. Had a run up through the Elan valley to Aberystwyth on Friday, and it coped with that effortlessly.) Enjoy the cub.
