i dont know for sure, but the main thing myself, and im sure most people on this site like about mopeds is the old styling, and the fact that they are the most basic, simple, low-power bikes out there, so the possibilities are endless.

the same thing that is appealing about mopeds is appealing about these small old honda bikes. many people on this site talk about cubs and passports, and there is nothing but respect.

here’s my ‘68 CT90, one of my favorite bikes ever:



and to end my thread-jacking, when you go to look at the bike, take a good look at the carb. my CL70 wouldnt run correctly because the carb would leak into the oil tank. the carbs are always leaky on these old bikes, so unless you can rebuild them, they might cause you some trouble. other than that, these things are damn near bulletproof, so unless they were running vinegar for gas and lubricating with molasses or something, it really shouldnt have many problems. plus there are quite a few parts for these floating around.
