HONDA RED RESIZED.jpgPurchased recently all complete except for rear light lens and grab handle. Deal included brand original new Honda seat & loads of original packaged Honda bits, all relevant paperwork, E##92K reg no. Also has original headlight switch :D on LH fork shroud except for rear light lens and grab handle. Needs a new top handlebar bracket as one of the "teeth" on locking lugs is busted.
Not so sure whether gold mudguards were original finish as I can't see any reference to this colour in Honda brochure archives so have probably been repainted. Interesting enough, although the frame is genuine ST it's fitted with a CT70 engine.

May keep it in this condition and just get it roadworthy and running properly.

20141129_092912.jpgHere's t'other side. Exhaust & shield looks OK but just noticed it needs downpipe shields.
Hope to have a good old fiddle about with it soon and get it running. Compression seems OK.
