I've got a '67 (guessing here... due to serial number, it's 9020th to roll off the line, could be a '68) CL90 sitting on my deck, currently getting rebuilt. 2200 original miles. Really nice shape for a 50 year old bike. Looking forward to getting it out.

I had a '68 CL-70, but the 90 is what I really wanted. Great bikes and trouble-free...not common motorcycle traits in the sixties.

the MT250 .....




My sons learned how to ride on one of those - they were nice bikes; the crank seals on ours went bad 30 years after it was made, but in the meantime it did well for us ....

I had a fella insist that Honda started with 4-strokes back in the 50s and never made a 2-smoker.  I had nothing to answer with, but I was sure I'd seen some somewhere . . . .

Honda also made a big splash in the eighties with their 2-stroke direct injection engines. Just last year they filed a patent on such a motor.
