this thing turns half a century old next month!

p.s.: its not actually that loud at all. the grass mowers and leafblowers that stroll around are far louder so don’t worry hehe

      oh, a ct90, but they are basically the same minus the engine. we also know a couple with a ct70 and it is very very cool as well. a local slang for a ct90 is a “twoshot”, as that is how much displacement the cylinder is LOL

          we’ve read about them as fleet vehicles like that!! we live in the USA (in oregon) and while they were sold here for a little while, they sadly weren’t super popular.

          it has always been fun to think about how the ct90 was pretty much a direct response to how honda cubs were modified for use here in these terrains in cascadia. like its literally purpose built for this exact region. its a funny thought how “close to home” this bike is.

        definitely! it is a bit in depth, but the variations are more akin to what you may see with different accents. e.g., miele often speaks with a more “german” sounding accent and word ordering, sometimes a mix of german and english or just german outright. tani is the one speaking in this video. sometimes its a mix of members speaking!

        its funny just how much others seem to enjoy tani’s voice though. we’re glad you do too.
