Buying an old Honda

[Baatfam]

She is a '67 Honda Super Cub CA100 w/just over 6K miles.
Mostly there, needs some electrical problems sorted out, but it runs well.
Buying it from a fellow GSR member.

I had a white one when I was 15 and have always wanted another...so I got a new project.

Even better...the faster red model.
Looks great.
Do you know how much of it is oem or does it have some repro parts on it yet?

Don't know. I think it is pretty much all original. I do know the exhaust was replaced, but not if it is OEM or aftermarket.

I had one of those. Crashed it many a time in dirt fields and railroad right of ways. Tore the foot pegs off the frame. broke or bent about everything. I liked the way that you could push the shift lever part way and it would rev in first, and you could pop the clutch and wheelie that way. there was a big patch of ice plant, where I could get the bald tire to spin. then it would inch to the dirt and wheelie. I was under 12 years old, I think.

Yours looks better...

I think everybody in the whole world must'v had one of those, I had couple of those in the fields. The headlight glass on that one has slipped round a bit, and considering its age it's in very nice condition.

Both halves of the chain guard and the turn signals means it had a good owner.

The best selling motor vehicle of all time.

I'll have one some day, as I have been keeping my eyes peeled for that beautiful one that screams "Take me Home!"

I've ridden many of them in different parts of the globe and they are economical & outstanding transportation.

Gorgeous little machine! All you're missing is Audrey Hepburn on the front. It looks like a gas to ride -- at least when there isn't much traffic.

Bob I think if you hang a bar on the back it will make an awesome bracket bike.
That's a sweet little bike that will put a smile on your face.

Find a cute girl with a 'pixie' cut, and make believe you're Gregory Peck.

Tough little buggers too!

Very cool.......I am going to start looking!

[Baatfam]

Well brought the Honda home this morning. She started right up, although the lights aren't working, but I'll get that fixed.
Took a few "before" pics. I'll start a separate thread when the project officially begins.

That's awesome, Bob! I saw a 'mature' lady getting on one of those a few years ago when I was down in Milford, NJ. She may even have been the original owner, which would be way far out cool. I love them little old Hondas.
