honda ct90

Look at the exhaust pipe!

Do you also carry burn cream?

    I believe that outer chrome you see is a shield for the exhaust pipe and doesn’t get as hot.

    Lol. My first dirt mini bike had an external pipe like that but no guard. After my friend fried his inner thigh on it, my dad used a bender at work to form a new pipe that went under the framework and out between the two shocks above the tire/under the seat. Lots of suspension travel that allowed for it.
    I bet my old friend still has the scars

    Obligatory one 10mm spanner is never enough, you need two, for cases when you inevitably lose the one \s :) What is the honda trail 90, is that an international thing?

    This is a much more involved kit than the one that came on my Ninja. That little kit is so useful. I can take the entire bike apart aside from the front tire with that little bag that goes under my seat. I have added a clutch cable to it, but that's about it.

    Nice tool kit! Seems very comprehensive for such a small space. Having watched a bunch of CT90adventures on youtoob, I grew fond of these bikes. There are a few more channels centered around the Honda CT line and they do impressive trips with them. Wonderful motorcycles and I’d love to have one someday.

    Great post but after all this excellent toolbox documentation we've got to see the bike too! Really nice job and great explanation.

    Add a metal coat hanger. It works as an all purpose thing you can bend to any shape, in case you need a makeshift bracket or holding other parts together till you get back home
