Rare Candy Green 1971 Honda CT70H Trail 70 Hello and thanks for your interest in my 1971 Honda Trail 70 "H" model. This bike is of the rarest of the CT70s because they were the "H" model which means it came with a 4 speed transmission with a manual clutch. This model was much faster than the standard 3 speed automatic clutch models. This bike had only 2269 original miles on it. The speedometer has been restored and set at back to zero during restoration. The bike now only has 1 or 2 miles of test riding on it. This bike has a clean California tittle in my name. This bike was restored by Mini Trail Madness in Glendora CA with over 20 years’ experience restoring Honda mini trail 50 and trail 70s. No expense was spared as you will see. The bike was in good condition to start but I am somewhat of a perfectionist and I like my things to be nice. This bike starts on the first kick, runs and shifts great. This bike looks fabulous and is definitely a crowd pleaser! So read on and happy bidding. :) VIN CT70H134586 ENGINE #CT70HE134616 (30 off is pretty low difference) TB Parts stands for Honda trail bike parts- remanufactured good quality parts...NOT from China CHP stands for Classic Honda Parts- remanufactured very good quality parts....NOT from China NOS stands for New Old Stock also means Stock Honda Parts from Honda not remanufactured.
