4 speed H Model CT70 Unrestored Survivor Candy Topaz Orange

Gorgeous unrestored Honda CT 70.
Bought new and ridden sparingly by Ken Thorpe from Portland (Oregon) Honda.
It still wears the original license plate and license plate frame. Ken's registration expired in 1972. The expired 1972 sticker is still on the license plate. Shortly thereafter the bike went into long term heated hibernation.
The Thorpe family held onto this special CT 70 for many years.. It has been in collector hands since.
Rare "H" model 4 speed in desirable Candy Topaz Orange.

I received a 1970 with 1,100 miles from my wife’s grandfather when he passed. It’s a beauty as well.

I noticed that the handle on the right side underneath the seat is missing ? I see the holes where it should be, but no handle

I had a 1971 CT70H that exact color. I was supposed to get a SL70 but there was a dock worker strike so I had to "settle" for the CT70H. I put 4500 off road miles on it from the age of 13 until I sold it when I was 20. It was $360.00 brand new.

Wow the Bike is Beautifull i’m surprised when you mentioned the reproduction Tires that Corky Coker didn’t wind up with the originalMolds and make a bunch of them that’s kind of something he would have been involved with being the Age he is and aCar and Motorcycle guy in thec1970s i think almost every guy i’ve known learned how to ride on a Honda

The 4 speed with a clutch was a CL70

[@jimg2885]

Why do you think that is not the original key? That little cover was sold I believe from Honda back in the day..

[@DustinHowell1976]

Hello, my Son was under the impression it was not. Since we made this video I'd done some research and found out that it is in fact the original key.
