1976 Honda C70

Full V5 in owners name

I'm selling this particular bike for a friend who is downsizing his bike collection due to poor health,

The C70 was purchased in the late 1980s and used as a field bike for a number of years before being laid up in the back garden for the following 25 years.

The bike is mostly complete but it has suffered from being outside in all weathers. The frame is in pretty good condition, with no serious rust or rot anywhere (the rear mudguard area is good), and the fuel tank is largely clean inside with few rust spots. However, the engine is seized along with the front wheel, and rust has taken hold in various places, mainly the exhaust and seat base.

Viewing is welcome before buying

Cash on collection is preferred

Sensible offers invited

Still on the DVLA database so should be easy to sort the V5 , it has the best 70 engine ;) but interesting to see the holes for a number plate on the front so late.

V5 has already been applied for and the owner now has it.

What makes it the best 70 engine?

`What makes it the best 70 engine?` it has the big valve head so as much power as the 6 volt 90.
