CT90, Mastodon, Crates

I've started disassembling my 1969 Honda Trail 90 to bring some much needed life back into its chassis. The engine is in good health, but it could use attention in a few areas:

  • Air filter
  • Screws for frame panels
  • Screws for left side of engine case
  • Engine gaskets
  • Exhaust pipe (potentially)
  • Wiring harness
  • Battery mount
  • Rebuilt (or new) carburetor
  • Fuel filter(s)
  • Chain
  • Engine and wheel cogs
  • Suspension

With gas prices the way they are, 100 MPG sounds good to me!
