DETAILS:

Above is a 1973 Honda CT 70. Leonard purchased this CT70 in 1995, from a fellow in Misouri for $80.00. He wanted more (naturally), bit it was not running, and smelt kinda bad. Leonard's first thoughts about this CT-70 were that it was "used, abused badly, and left neglected in a riverbed to rust. It was "River Blue" in color, and missing many parts. After purchasing it, Leonard movedit to his basement, where he spent two years locating and obtaining parts to re-build the bike. At this same time, the bike was taken completely appart. There were old wasps and spider nests in the tube frame, water in the engine and forks, and even a mouse tunnel through the seat foam. Basically, after two years of work to restore it, the bike runs great, and still has the original drive chain. Leonard and his son have a great time riding this bike. It's been registered for road use, and gets put to use running down the farm roads, going to the fishing hole, and up the street for some milk. It's also used during "Deer Season", ans is equiped to drag a deer. Sorry everyone.... this one is NOT for sale!
