These little bikes are tremendous fun. With a three-speed semi-automatic box and an engine that seems to run on thin air, they're practical too. Sometimes the old ones really are the best.

Had one of there's when I was 15 in the late 80s C90 red , it was a S reg 1978 ,used to race them off road over Wimbledon common , excellent bikes 👍

[@classic_britain]

They sure are!

[@joedannunzio9416]

Back in the 1970s I had a C90 then a CB250 and a mate of mine had a ex police Norton who would go around roundabouts at over 50 mph. Crazy days and nights.

[@classic_britain]

Yes they are great bikes don't forget to sub!

[@kernowexpblogs2210]

you meet the nicest people on a honda we have 1 too pard

[@PeteCswampy]

i went c50, then c70 when i was 17. used the bikes to commute to work, then we started swappin heads and barrells but not telling dvla, good times. the good old c70 was my go to bike in the 80s

[@classic_britain]

Pete my man I tried to call you yesterday back on the old number can I give you a call this evening?

[@frothe42]

Incredible Sheldon! Semi-automatique means I could possibly learn to drive one! I love the blue Vespa, that is gorgeous! Closing with those gorgeous classics, lots of history!

[@frothe42]

OMG, a Metropolitan! That should be pulled out and restored! A gentleman down the road from me has a red and white one, an Austin engine. Another reason why I love British classics!

[@classic_britain]

@@frothe42 Hahahaha yes that will have it's own will it run video!

[@shakyhandpictures2185]

Not only a cool bike but a beautiful property and area, a treat for Canadian eyes.

[@classic_britain]

Hahaha glad you like it! Where about in Canada my mum is Canadian

[@shakyhandpictures2185]

@@classic_britain well nice, London Ontario, along the River Thames, where we have a convent garden, a Hyde Park, an Oxford street and to many other namesakes like the big London :) Where’s Mum?

[@MrBrianc1975]

Great stuff. I had a C50 then the Yamaha equivalent the YV50 and then a Honda cop but the round headlight model. In blue with full windscreen!

[@classic_britain]

Hahahaha nice

[@joecongrain7477]

My 1st bike was a used C70...rode it in the early 80's...was a great bike ...❤ it

[@daveshongkongchinachannel]

Expanding into bikes is great. I started my motoring life on a Honda Express (at the time I didn't care about my image as long as it had an engine!) but soon switched to 4 wheels as soon as I was old enough. It was a number of years later, and mostly for economic and convenience reasons did I take my bike test. The power and sense of freedom was a revelation. Not long after taking my bike test I went to the other extreme of Honda ownership and bought myself a Honda Blackbird which I still own 25 years later. Despite being the fastest road bike of its day, the Blackbird has stayed true to Honda's reputation for reliability and pretty much starts every time and runs sweetly despite only routine maintenance being carried out over the years. Looking forward to seeing the mysterious 2 stroke 250cc with the mad powerband - I am pretty sure I know what it is but won't spoil the surprise here. A mate of mine had one back in the 80s and it was like someone had flipped a switch when it reached a certain number of revs and all hell was let loose. There was also a smaller 50cc version which had similar characteristics to the 250 and around this time legislation was introduced to limit the power output of such bikes (classed as mopeds). That made these older bikes sought after as they were produced before the legislation was introduced and easily outperformed the newer compliant models by a wide margin. The newer bikes were not only gutless in acceleration, top speed was also not much over 30mph and yet these older bikes could touch 60mph on a good day with the wind behind you.

[@classic_britain]

Hahaha we have a Honda Express to film as well so you are in luck!

[@daveshongkongchinachannel]

@@classic_britain Great, that will bring back some memories. Mine was a 1978 model and was well used by the time I bought it around 1984.

[@thetravellingtokers6385]

[@georgedalas8303]

Friendly tip, when you kick start one you feel the engine rotating you can give it some gas to help get it started

[@jamesfletcher279]

My c90 6 volt has been in boxes for 20 years I just cleaned the carb cleaned the points and unbelievable it started second kick

[@mattkeeley8928]

Is the vespa for sale ?? I'd definitely be interested... Thanks

[@classic_britain]

No but there will be a video on it!

[@mattkeeley8928]

Ok.. thanks for the reply will look forward to seeing the video 😎

[@zonie1953]

That bike will start and run after 50 years of sitting. 5 years is just little rest for it. No Lucas electrics there !

[@hgerry]

Do you mind me asking how tall you are? I'm planning on getting one of these and am tall myself. Cheers!

[@Petetomir]
