1964 Honda S90

Aaah! That was my first bike. Mine was a '66, and white. Many happy miles.

Have fun.

Way cool! Reminds me of my first bike, a Honda C110, 50cc. Lordy, could that thing endure abuse....

Wish I still had it.

Had almost the same. A SS50 (50 ccm only), almost the same frame (different air box). Mine had a Joshimura cam, was ported and had a 23mm Dellorto - carb (no more street legal, but I was young). Bought it used for 120 Deutschmarks with a seized piston. I kept the motor, but my dad threw it away in an (useless) attempt to clean a room I occupied in the cellar.

Well DONE Sir..very well done indeed!!

SA-WEET! i've recently developed an interest in vintage rice burners (mid-life crisis). been scouring craigslist and eBay. what a gorgeous bike! you'll be the cool dude on your block now.

Nice job Jim. One of the nicest looking Hondas. They must be good - Chinese factories are churning out near-clones of those motors today.

My first bike was a '69 Kawasaki street 90. Vroom! Fond memories.

Hey, great restoration job, Jim. I remember riding those way back when, too. I had the other rice-burner, a Kaw.

What part of the country are you in ? I got some mid-70's CB750's ... One that's 85% ready to run , I just ain't got the drive to work on that one . The '39 in my sig was my dad's , and is very good at consuming funds and time ... a labor of love though .

My first bike was a BSA Bantam, 125 CC! But then, I are an old fart! :)

Nice job!

Mine was a Honda Dream.

Dream, Scrambler, the 90 family - Almost as good as and usually more available than sex to a 17 year old back then...

My first was a new Honda trail 90 in 1965, when I was 14.

How many MPG do you get?

Unfortunately, I remember things exactly the way you tell 'em. Happiness was being ambidextrous.

That was mine also, a 53 BSA Bantam. Bought it in 1958 at 13 years old.
