- In this final and last part to this series I actually get the bike running. success! I have to set the timing and I am currently working on the registration. Thanks to you all that have watched all 10 parts. I hope you have enjoyed it or gained some knowledge about these little old motorcycles. Be sure to comment and share!
As a young Canadian fool in 1969 I bought a 1965 S90 in London, England for $200. With my backpack and a $25 pup tent I spent two months exploring all of England, Wales and Scotland. Never let me down through rain, snow and a “meeting” with a sheep. Sold it for $150 and bought a VW (girls!). Today I ride a Goldwing and have found a restored S90. Time to downsize and relive old memories. Great series of videos.
Fantastic strory and one to remember for sure......thanks for sharing. This was done a few years ago now and was some of my first videos. I hope you find it useful and I still have it but it's not running. I have fire issues seems like. Haven't had time to dig into it but I will eventully. I hope you can find time to view some other videos on our channel and maybe even follow along on our journey. We release a video every Sunday morning. Take care and enjoy!!!!!
I had the 1969 Super 90, bought in 1971 for $250. It has 5-600 miles on it when I got it. It was just like that one, a bit picky about idling. I had to have it governed down to 5 HP, because I was 13 when I got my license. The governing device didn't make it out of the Honda dealers parking lot, but I had my certificate.
Loved that thing! It got me all over town and gave me independence. Topped out at around 65 MPH.
Great story. Thanks for watching!
Very pretty things
Thank you and keep watching…… thanks.
Very nice old Honda classic bike! A little setup tuning could be done 😉👍🏻
Yes it needs a little restoration now as it’s been sitting too long.
greetings from Honda S90 Indonesia🇲🇨
a real show piece good job
Thanks for the compliment. I still have in and now it needs some more work.
Wicked sound. I just subscribed.
Thanks for tuning in to one of my first early ones. Thanks for Subbing. I hope you enjoy our journey.
Wonderful👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching!!
Looks great. I have a 1967 Honda C201. Its very similar.
Yeah, I wish this one was a little larger like a 200 or so, but it was fun to work on. I will finally get to ride it this coming summer hopefully. And the reason for that is I moved and wasn't in a position to get it on the road.
@@codraven57 I got mine from a friend of mine. He had it when he was a kid. It had sat for at least 30 years. Engine was stuck but I soaked it with ATF and Acetone and it freed up. It’s a lot of fun to bomb around the neighborhood.
That was exactly like my first motorcycle...a red/ argent 66 honda 90!!!
That is awesome! Thanks for watching.
Love the higher handle bars!!!
Thanks it is just what was available, but it worked out for the best I believe.
mine in youth, bot with paper route income, from a farm across the hiway in rapid city, i pushed more than rode, but in east rapid valley , like homestead i rode illegal around an got cot 2 times, same deputy/cop, same place , a year apart, for no paper an little ran legal. but fun an an experience. wish cud kept , rode another but 750-4 from Phoenix to yellowstone summer of 1986 till it broke down/scraped...
Brings back memories hey,
Sound like need to adjust the point and timing, and carburetor mixture of air and fuel. Run very poor.
Yes, you are right it did bad at first. Remember this was the first start up after new rings and honing the cylinder so it needs some running to break in and gain better compression. I have adjusted the carb and timing since that also. It hasn't ran much since that though due to me moving and not having the time to work on it. I plan on licensing it as an antique auto this summer and bob around town with it and tour a Tim Horton's or two.
@@codraven57 Thank you so much to let me know what you did. Anyway, S 90 was my dream when I was young and until today. Now at 70 y/o, I wish I have a chance to ride the Honda S90 before I won't be able to do it. I have a Piaggio MP3 scooter, automatic with 3 wheels to run around in town when the weather is clear. Nice to share with you.
did you have to re shape the expipe my repo pipe from Thailand will not fit .also
Yes that is what happened to me also. I cut the pipe about 2-3 inches from the engine and then mounted it then tacked and welded the both back together again and painted up to the weld with black paint.
Hope this helps.
My neighbor has one but it keeps turning off after driving a quarter mile
It could be starving of fuel. That sounds like the distance it would take to burn whats in the carburetor. Something to check.
Заводится плохо, он с пол-тычка должен заводиться, зачем - то нулевик поставил, поршневую быстро убьёт.
Is the ignition CDI ???
No, not CDI, it is points.
Pod filter may not be ideal
It actually works pretty fine I think, and it was cheap and easier to find than the original one.
its a nice bike Bryan. I belted around the bush on one as a kid for many years. They do great wheelys by the way. There was that time the fuel cap was loose though. I was the kid laying under the tap at the park 😣
@@beycoll8275 Glad you enjoyed it Bey! That sounds like a scary moment being soaked in gasoline.😳
Hi.indonesian smile.
