A Splash Of Colour -Part 2 ( Honda C90 FULL RESTORATION )

- After a ton of work im very glad to bring you part 2 of the restoration. You may want to watch it over a couple of 15 min sessions as there is a lot of work to take in ;)
The item in question is a 1979 Honda C90 motorcycle , scooter, moped or whatever else you want to class it as lol. It was a barn find that has been sitting off the road for years and when i got the chance to buy it i snapped it up.
From the initial inspection it didn't look to bad but tearing it down uncovered a series of areas that will need rectification work if i want to get this back to factory fresh.
The plan is to go thorough the bike methodically restoring, replacing and fabricating as need be to make this one of the best restored c90's out there and as you can probably tell from my other videos the finish will be second to none ;)
so sit back relax and enjoy a series of videos documenting the full restoration of the bike from start to finish.
If you like what you see and have any ideas for the channel or would even like to donate something to restore to the channel please get in touch. :)
And as usual if you liked the video please like share and subscribe and help the channel grow.

A Splash Of Colour -Part 2 ( Honda C90 FULL RESTORATION ) Авто/Мото
Hey Guys, As you have probably noticed already i have updated the channel name and logo. The channel is no longer Really Random Channel it is now RRC Restoration. Just incase you were wondering why the water marks in the video still say Really Random Channel. Enjoy.
what color is the red paint? i need it to restore my super cub
Your attention to detail is amazing. This bike will come out better than the day it left the assembly line. Thanks.
Hey, Thanks for your kind comment. Lets hope so :)
Very very good video! Your camera shots and editing is really entertaining. Your videos are getting better and better. Good job man
Hey, Thanks very much i try my best :)
good to see someone doing a factory fresh resto of the best field bike EVER, makes a change from all the pitbike engined ""customs"" that folk seem to be knockin up.
Hey,Thanks for your comment. Im glad your liking it :)
And here we have a man who knows the value of PROPER preparation. Respect.
Hey, Thanks for the kind comment. A professional job is always found in the prep work ;)
This restoration will go down in history!!
Appreciate your workspace being kept so clean the whole time!!
Hey, Thanks for the comment. I like to keep the place tidy then im not losing small screws and tripping over things all day haha
Another awesome episode! It's amazing how you make 30 mins seem like 5! Best way to spend 30 mins though! Thanks for allowing us to be your guest and share in the experience. I'm wheelie excited for the next episode!
Hey, Thank you for your kind comment and im really glad you enjoyed the video. Part 3 is well under way and will be uploaded soon ;)
I'm keeping my vintage bike that wild red orange! Interesting video!
When you have been working on your own motorcycle; That is when you know how much work this actually is compared to how much work it looks in the video.
Hey, Thanks for your comment and its very true, the video doesnt even come close to showing all of the time and processes involved in restoring something from the ground up.
Man...you BY FAR are the BEST DIY guy on RUclips, period! You deserve a Trophee!
Thank you for your kind comment :)
refreshing video, good relax, thanks
Great video, coming along nicely I can’t wait to see part 3
Thank you very much :) Part 3 will be along shortly ;)
Great job! Can't wait to see the next parts.
Part 3 is well under way so you shouldn't have too long to wait ;)
Oh, I remember these! My mate had one in college, but his was blue and white if I remember. Loads of fun! He got four of us on there one day and as he pulled off we all went flying! The bike was on top of him and the exhaust was burning his leg but we were laughing so hard we couldn't pick the bike up off him. The more he was shouting to help him the weaker with laughter we got! Sounds bad but he was fine, that day was hilarious!
Hey, Thank you very much for sharing your memories with the channel :)
I'll subscribe only under the condition that you only restore extra cool shit like this. Also bonus points gol throwing us a curveball & doing a classic electronic.
Was waiting.... :) It's finally here ! Creative. Fun. Refreshing to watch. Awesome work.
Im glad you enjoyed it. Part 3 on its way soon :)
Wow!! I have to wonder just how many of these have you repaired or restored....😮😮😮
Your expertise as you disassemble and repair,just shows years of experience!! That is going to be the sexiest moped ever!!😁😁😁
Thank you for your kind comment. Ive been in the trade for many years ;)
Awesome work man. I can see why it took a hot second to upload the next video. No pressure to get them out fast- quality over quantity. I can see your dedication to bring this Honda back to life and it is seen throughout the little details you put into it. Keep it up!
Hey, Thank you for your kind comment and understanding. It really does take a long time to work a full time job and restore a bike not to mention filming it and editing it but its all worth it when you get to see the fruits of your labor and get to chat with you guys about the work being done. :)
They normally rot across the rear mudguard and that is a part of the structure. This one is in great condition.
Hey, Nice to see you commenting again :) . Yeah thats why i snapped it up you dont see many as solid as this these days.... well in the uk anyway haha
I'm loving the new colour! Classier than the original Honda red. You are doing a really Great job!
Hey, Thanks very much im also loving the new paint :)
Very satisfying to watch this. Gives me some motivation to finish restoring my '72 Honda Mini Trail 70.
Good luck with your own project :)
Nice and clean job,thanks to share it,greetings from Argentina !!!🇦🇷
For such a small bike, there's so many parts, top job
I really admire you for being passionate of what your doing. Your work is into perfection.
Thank you very much :)
I am fond of your attention to the interior of the frame. That is a great deal to keep the rust away and to make the restoration is what it is... You did very good with the frame.
Thank you very much :)
Great job! This is going to be a real beauty when you're done!!!
Thank you very much! :)
This video reminds me of a project I took on that had a life of its own.
In 1990 rented a House with a girlfriend at age 23, the house had a detached garage, an empty space that held an old 1978 Honda 750.
The owner of the house said the engine on the bike was locked up and if I hauled it off I could keep whatever scrap money I got out of it.
After looking the bike over I decided to see what was wrong with the engine, before I scraped the bike.
One of the cylinders was scored up badly enough to seize the engine, so I took the engine out of the frame and took it to a buddy who loved such projects.
He agreed to get my junk engine running again but it would be months before it was ready.
The owner of the bike signed over the title of the bike to me so I began working on all the other issues the bike had in my spare time.
The brakes had to be rebuilt, the seat was a rats nest, it needed the wiring gone through, both tires were flat and dry rotted.. the bike had sat from 1980, 10 years of dust and neglect.
So I cleaned and replaced and repaired and such, even polished and repaired things along the way.
A visit to a local junk yard netted me a few things I wanted, like different handle bars, a fender that I could paint ( the original was solid chrome... yech) I ordered a new seat cover from a Honda dealership, and my mom fitted it over some new foam padding for me.
Finally after 8 months my friend dropped the engine off at my house.
It was reinstalled in the frame.
It was now a few CC’s bigger than 750cc’s, we guessed it was around 806cc’s, a minor improvement.
I bought two new tires and had them mounted, and the bike was ready to ride.
I had spent approximately 400$
I had a great bike, that looked somewhat new, it had loads of power, and I was happy with it.
I traded that bike to a guy who had an old Harley in baskets in his basement a year later.
And so began the next project.
Hey, Thanks for sharing your story with the channel its great hearing about other peoples biking stories :)
I would have done the lazy man''s restoration. I'd have simply polished and waxed the original paint. Kudos to you for doing the extra work.
Leaving the paint original is way better, it's way more nostalgic.
this will give it longer immunity from rust
Hey, Thanks for the comments. If it was the original paint i would have been tempted to do a sympathetic restoration and keep the original paint, its hard to show on camera but the bike is not in its original paint it has been badly painted by brush and is covered in rust under the surface so leaving the old paint is simply a no go.
yeah after grinding, the level of rust was bad for the frame
I admired your work. If there are people like you in the Philippines I can ask for work with confidence.
Espectacular trabajo, te felicito desde Colombia, se nota el cariño puesto a tu labor,, espero deseoso el próximo video!!!!!!!
let's give this Mr - thumbs up , below this video.
because this is a real good and hard work
Thank you very much :)
A pleasure to watch! Thanks again!
Not a problem :) I hope you will enjoy part 3 equally as much ;)
You are gonna be 90 years old by the time its done!
Hi,This restoration project was finished last year, Check my page for the other episodes ;)
this is what I'm waiting for
great job, shes gonna look awesome when shes finished.
Hey thanks for the comment. Im hoping its going to look better than when it was new :)
Can't wait to see part 3 dude. Awesome. Good job.
You shouldn't have too long to wait, the filming and editing are already well under way;)
oh, man! i love this channel. That was a beautiful resto!!!!
Thank you very much! More coming soon ;)
Absolutely awesome job!!! 👍👍
Great job on the whole project, but im very happy to see you took it down to bare metal! Im always disappointed when someone doesnt do a "full resto" & they just paint over the existing, or dont even repaint sonething they just wash it even though it really should have had a full resto done. Taken down to bare metal. Again very well done.
Looks great! Ready for the next episode!!
Thanks :) Dont worry episode 3 is well under way ;)
You've got a great eye for detail,can't wait to see the end result,subbed.
Hey, Thanks for your comment and sub its very much appreciated :)
I wish I had your painting skill, Great video!
Thanks for another awesome adventure
My pleasure :), Part 3 coming soon ;)
Rust spores. Lol. Cool vids man, love them.
The precursor to tin worms.
That stripped paint peeling was so satisfying
I can't want wait for part three. I saw the 1part prouvilsy you do good work. I'm currently working on a Honda trail ct70 have fun and keep up the good work.
Part 3 is well under way so you shouldn't have too long to wait to see more of the restoration ;). Good luck with your project :)
Superb job and amazing results. it looks better than new in this video!
Thank you :)
you met the nicest person on a honda
When I do projects like that I have to take pictures of everything when I take it apart. Memory is not what it used to be. You do a really good job with your projects. Takes lots of patience.
amazing work!
now all i wanna do is restore mine !
Beautiful
FANTASTIC job brother, Part 3 immediately sir :)
Hey, Thanks for the comment. Part 3 will be online tonight ;)
Thank you sir!
the wright way to do it,nice job man.
Excellent restoration job, better than new, well done.
Thank you very much :)
Excelente video bro, tengo una c70 y sigo tus pasos para restaurarla, gracias.
Loved it!
You cleaned your work surface?!?! I subscribed immediately.
Haha yup, gotta keep it clean :) Thank you for subscribing its very much appreciated :)
Wow, very nice job !
Thank you :)
Wow that is a lot of work in a short time since the 1st vid. I got genuinely excited when the red paint was getting poured... 😀
Hey, Thanks for the comment. Im glad you enjoyed the video :)
Nice so beautiful good Honda c90
Honda Cub 50, 70, 90 cc : the very best bikes EVER made. I want mine back ! A 1967 50cc, olive green and beige. My very first "vehicle" at 16 y.o. Oh lord.
Yep looking good roll on for the next one
Bugger this is a serious restoration .
Great video
Can't wait to part 3 👏👏👏👏
Its on its way soon ;)
best one I have seen brill.
Thank you :). Part 3 will be online tonight ;)
It was worth the work, it was very cool. Congratulations.
Thank you. It took AGES to prep and paint all the parts but i feel the results are well worth the time and effort :) Thanks for the comment.
Very professional job
Thank you very much :)
Just randomly found your channel. Really interesting
Hey,Thanks for your comment. I hope you enjoy the channel :)
When finished, this will be 10x better than from the factory! Are you also going through the engine and completely restoring that? Glad I found your channel! You have inspired me to SLOW DOWN on many of my projects and take the extra time to do a job more thoroughly, thus, MORE BETTER! :-)
I will be going through every part of the bike restoring,replacing and refinishing as necessary ;). The engine will be getting a thorough going over but i wont be splitting the gearbox apart as its in perfect condition. Im glad i could inspire you with your own projects :)
Sen harika bir ustasın 👆 🇹🇷 🙋🙌
I think I would have took it somewhere and paid to have it bead blasted. Pitted areas always seem to show up as later problems - in my experience anyway. However I've had pretty reliable results with liquid rust treatments ( not the cheap ones ) on big stuff like farm equipment, etc. Very nice job and well done.
Saludos desde Arauca en Colombia!!
Sweet dude its coming together nicely
Thank you :)
I had one of these C90's back in the days when I lived in London; a Y Reg. Blue & White it was [what year would that be? 1982?]... You're doing a fantastic job giving the old Cub a new lease of life. Can't wait for the next episodes.
beautiful restoration!
Thank you :)
Well done, great work
Thank you very much :)
Great job as usual.
Thank you very much :)
Awesome! I have a 77 Express I want to do some day!
Man, you're awesome.
looking forward to see the 3rd part asap:)
Part 3 is well under way so you shouldn't have too long to wait ;)
18:27 But that worked though 😁
Btw, the sandblasting part is so satisfying. 👍
Great job! I love it.
Thank you :)
Giving it a like for the brush cam. Interesting angle
Haha thanks very much :)
Really nice video. The overall quality has been improving really fast. Congrats.
The style of video reminds me of DiResta
Hey, Thanks for your kind comment :)
I’m impressed I have one as well that’s onmy to do list for a restoration I actually liked your frame look in bare metal although your complete process does turn it into a nicer looking finished product and I like the idea of converting the rust and sealing it like you did mine will be similar as I plan on doing new Black paint on the frame and I’m hoping to do a buff on the engine to give it that chrome like contrast as I did on another Black Honda I owned btw my Old Honda 90 is a 1964 S90 model
nice video !! so satifying to watch !!
Glad you liked it :)
Great job!!!! 👏👍
Thank you :)
Damn i loved it 😍
super job will follow you work on this honda 90
Glad your along for the ride :)
I might have went against the grain a bit and,perhaps went with a Spanish Gold basecoat and then maybe 3-5 coats of candy apple or candy brandywine,then wet it down good with a coat of clear or two. Great job thus far though. Can't wait for the next video.
Hey, Thanks for the comment and suggestion. Usually im the first to change the colour of somthing but for this project im going for a factory restoration so none of my usual funky colours will be appearing in this series im afraid.
Really Random Channel
Killer Job. Gorgeous. And a pleasure to see unfold. I had another thought and it was not the basis for my comment, please ride it.
b😂😅😚😙😘😗😆😅😃😋
amazing restoration
Thank you :)
Increíble ¿cuantas horas de trabajo? Excelente trabajo y video 👍
Nice and clean
10:05 looks like that’s been painted with a brush.
Very thorough job as usual.
Hey, Thanks for the comment. The surface your seeing at 10:05 is the dry surface of the hydrate 80 before flatting it down and applying primer.
excelente trabajo, saludos desde Perù
i like that gel that removes paint like that.
Great job!!
Thank you :)
i like this. thank you for video :)
I've found applying a layer of plastic wrap after applying the stripper gets everything off in 1 go. The chemical reaction performed gives off gasses and heat and if you lock those in then you save time and product.
Ótimo Vídeo!
