Finally finished the rebuild on the Honda Trail 90 (1970 model).
Though it was in pretty good shape when I got it, rust was starting to form on the frame and fenders. Had the frame and tin powder coated and painted the plastic parts and engine side covers. Even managed to keep the original dealer sticker. One project down and a couple of hundred to go. This full retirement is killing me!

Very cool. There is one for sale at the Honda dealer nearby. Maybe I should look into that as my Enduro. Seriously though... very nice restoration on (dare I say) a classic bike.

Its hard to find cool little bikes to ride nowdays. the stuff for kids is still way expensive for a 4 yr bike,

full retirement looks like its expensive as well as rewarding, lolololol

Nice job Troy. I hope my rehab project turns out half that nice.


Thom I might be wrong, I sometimes am.

my next door neighbor has one that i keep telling him how badley i want, but he wont get off of it he has got to be 70 plus, i have never seen him ride it and it just sits against the back wall of his garage rotting away he tells me it was his kids and maybe after he is gone i can talk to them about getting it but that he will never get rid of it. i have wanted another one of them ever since i was a teen and got rid of the one i had. (the dumb stuff we do as kids, but who knew) i would love for my grankids to learn on it, as it is a great learner because it can be used lightly off road or used to get to school. great little bike!!! imho


ENJOY!!!!! NEWT!!!!!

Easter already? OK, that was lame.

It is a nice resto though. Wouldn't mind having one myself.
