I took the Honda Trail 90 out to test her readiness for adventure. 100 kilometers of highway, backroad, gravel, dirt, and mud. This trip helps me assess performance and measure top speed and gas tank range. Next week, I'll take Sid's Trail 125 through the same course and compare. Be sure to check back for that video! How did the CT90 do? Is it ready for the adventures we have planned?
I've spent a couple of months tinkering with this vintage CT90. I did some cosmetic preservations, but also made a few repairs: adjustments to the brakes and added a new carb. I'm taking it out on the route I frequently use as a shake-out run. I'm used to riding bigger adventure bikes like my GS1200 or DRZ400. All of my experience with power may work against me. In its 43-year life, this little bike has done more sitting than being pushed hard. I needed to check off this route close to home before I take it on any trips.
