    excepting maybe the factory race kit for more noise.

    Things were a lot more simple back then. I can remeber lusting after a 2nd hand honda S90..... Still a great looking bike IMO.

    The only things I've done are paint the screen and peel the stickers off. Been a serious customiser previously.

    It's not a great sounding bike - considering what it 'could' sound like. It's not foul either, but I like it quiet. It's more about the sort of hijinx I get up to on it - i don't want to draw any attention to myself.

    I've got this Urban ADV course that...well, the motard guys understand.

    I swapped a Mini-bike and a Slug Gun for a CL90

    yep i've been the same,
    always been something to change/mod.

    but on the uly,
    seat is good
    bars are good
    handles good
    stops good
    indicators don't need modding
    goes very good.

    shit we know how good they are,
    I just gotta talk the mrs into letting me get one

    "Big brakes are fitted to control the better than 55mph (90kph) speed."

    Oooh I'm impressed!
    There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

    "Runs away from most 63cc bikes". Now there's a glowing comparison.

    I doubt many modern "sport bikes" could manage to get up into the hills like that. It seems to be in a farmers back paddock (however it might only be on the side of a road). Who knows, with the marketing of motorcycles those/these days.

    And what exactly has he been doing with the farmers daughter in the back paddock we asks hey Swoop.

    Veiled sexual innuendo is nothing new in bike ads then.

    Sometimes you wonder why they bothered though.

    A bike like that would get you a hell of a lot more poontang than a modern 'sportsbike'.
