1970 HONDA CT70 TRAIL 70The first model in the U.S.Frame# CT70-109119 Engine# CT70E-111991CALIFORNIA TITLEON CA. NON-OPERATION STATUS (MEANS NO BACK FEES) NO RESERVE Up for auction is another premium condition 1970 CT70 K0 that I have built. This bike is a silver tag judging by the vehicle identification number and the location of the hole for the wire harness next to the tail light. I know that it is said that they were only built in 1969, but 1970 is what the California highway patrol says it is. I am not the original owner and it had to be verified by them for the title. So with that said, the bike has the silver tag correct horn, rear straight brake stay, and left side engine cover. I will describe this bike of all the replaced parts and workmanship done and the imperfections. This description will give you an idea as to all that was done to complete this bike. Not everything on this bike is new This bike purrs like a kitten, shifts good, and drives excellent. Every part on this bike has been replaced, re-chromed, polished, or re-plated. A lot of time and money in this bike as you can see. All the correct numbered “8” bolts with the correct washers and proper bolt length were used. Look closely at the photos and you be the judge. This is practically a brand new bike from 1970. You would be hard pressed to build a bike as nice as this for this price. Bid with confidence you will not be disappointed. Feel free to call or text me @ 626-664-5947. Please don’t ask “What is your reserve”. Please read and understand both the shipping and payment details before bidding.
