Good idea! Then if I wanted to carry milk or a 12 pack I could leave the top open and strap down the contents.

 

They are so much Freaking fun! Get so many weird looks riding it.

 

Speaking of small bikes..

Changed the oil and filed the points on the CT90 and it's still giving me weird stuttering problems, combine that with not the best day at work and it means I'm in the mood to spend money.

Looking at swapping in this, semi-auto 140CC w/ electric start:

or this 140cc manual w/ a kicker:

E-start means I can't run a skid plate, but it seems so damn convenient. Semi-auto means no clutch lever/cable to buy and super clean handle bars OR I install the left hand rear brake again. Not sure if it's worth the $$$ though. All in to convert I'm probably looking at $1000-1100. (Exhaust, 12v battery, throttle housing/tube/cable, front brake stay, engine, engine adapter to the CT90, footpegs, re-make the wiring harness) Probably throwing some massive rise pro-taper handlebars on, too.

Someone talk me out of this.

EDIT:

Well girlfriend just played the "do you want to spend money on an engine or an engagement ring" card soooo disregard everything in this post haha

 

I’m alive.
Been getting my ass worked at my new job. 12-14 hour days and not a motorcycle ride in sight until the weekend.

 

welcome back. @4x4Runner is handing out reply bans and a free trip to the 3rd gen forum

 

ohhh

 

that would be awesome! I think there's a small window to see the colors. Because it will be 80s for a while, and then boom, 40s. We can definitely make it happen though. @LocoLocal

I was just thinking today, that I need a long moto ride or a long camping weekend soon.

 

I think October would be the month to do it. September is too early, and November it will probably be too cold

 

Next time I am at harbor freight I will pick one up.

What about for in the truck?

I wanted to get something like this for the bike

$18 Roam Universal Black Net Bike Phone Mount Holder, 360° Rotation Hands Free Cell Navigation System for Motorcycle eBike Dirt Road Cruiser Scooter Jogging Stroller, Adjustable Up to 3.6" W x 7" L

I did it to two phones w/ my ram x grip thing. An iphone six plus and an X. I rarely use it any more on my the F800 but occasionally use it on the CB. The inline 4 is quite a bit smoother than the parallel twin.

 

just found this too
