1988 C90G For Sale - SOLD
Much as it pains me, Ive decided to put my C90 up for sale
I don't post much on here, mainly using it as reference (sorry!), but I bought 'Wilf' back in Feb 2012 after having a bit of a tumble on a bigger bike earlier that winter. I used him for commuting through all weathers and he's been an absolute hero... I've giggled that much on a bike before
Unfortunately the rust monster has got to him, and as a result he failed his last MOT due to corrosion around the rear suspension mounts (just after he's been treated to a spanking new exhaust too). He's been sat in my Dad's shed ever since whilst I decided what to do, and after a bit of research, I've come to the conclusion it's probably a bit too much work for me. I'm hoping someone on here might be able to save him?
Mileage is 27199, everything works as it should, although he doesn't have a battery fitted (one went wrong on me, and I found out it ran fine without one..), he is a little tatty in places (e.g. the seat!) but solid enough. Comes with a pile of old documents, and owners manual, the original Honda service book (complete with Owners Card) with stamps going back to 1988.
I'm based in Bristol, I've put £500 in the topic (as it said I had to put a price?), but I'm open to offers..
And sadly, this is what he looks like with his clothes off

it does not look rotten round the shocker area to me unless other side is worse

Any chance of a photo of the shock mounts from the underside? Also, would you be OK holding it until next friday, or possibly sunday, so long as I pop a little deposit down on it?

Tell us when the deal is done and we'll mark it as SOLD.
That way we don't get folk digging the thread up to ask.
Fingers crossed that a replacement for Wilf is not far away.
