Hi All,
I’m Matt from Suffolk and have recently purchased a 1983 C90c, I had loads of these bikes as a kid and decided to buy one now I’m older as I had so many fond memories owning them, look forward to chatting to you all.

Hi Matt, welcome to the forum.
Is yours a round headlight but with 'modern' 12v electrics and a CDI unit ( no points !)
Cheers Andy.

If you use the dropbox link in the 2nd entry on the topic it should work, I can't copy and paste the link itself.

Andy, round headlight, haven’t checked to see if it has points yet, I think it will have

Re: New member
Thank you yes I’ll be up for that, need to get some road tax and mot yet and make sure the bike can do more than a one mile round trip first without breaking down, its been 100% fine so far apart from a back fire on over run and a small amount of clutch slip, I’ve changed the exhaust gasket and found a small amount of the outlet flange had broken off, it hadn’t run for over 30 years so just want to try and get it right first I guessCapitano wrote: ↑Tue Sep 06, 2022 5:40 pmIf you fancy a ride and a chat with c90club forum folks this weekend, ride on down to this.

If it's a C90C (which would be right for 1983) it will be 12v CDI ignition. TBH favoured by many as has the round lamp looks and the "sophistication" of the later bikes.MattC90Moo wrote: ↑Tue Sep 06, 2022 5:41 pmAndy, round headlight, haven’t checked to see if it has points yet, I think it will have
Not everyone is riding to Hampshire, some of us cheat with vans and trailers etc.
