100 quid are you serious? bargain of the century. you could ride that to the end of the earth and back if you wanted
The owner of the C90 is the son of a family my wife have known for 20 or more years, he used to play with my kids when they were all youngsters, he is a great kid I told him he could get a lot more if he advertised it on eBay, but he said he just wanted rid of it, and he was just wanting £100 and for someone to clean it up. It has got a bit of bumpy chrome work here and there but I can get chroming done at a reasonable price, couple of new tyres, good clean up maybe a rattle can or three, service and should be good to go. I have seen the on eBay auctions starting at 550 quid. Sale of the century, I would say.

yea that's a great find. there's a lot to be said for smaller lighter bikes especially if you're just doing short trips on local roads. you can throw it around a bit more than a bigger bike and you can rev it out in all the gears without doing a million miles an hour. it's easier to get in and out of the shed, hardly takes up any space when it's parked plus you're not going to be worried about dropping it and the running costs for the week are about the same as the price of a cup of tea and a ham sandwich :lol
