Working in town last night and not a lot was going on, but as I was standing there, I noticed all the ped-bois!.
most of them were a bit chavy and riding a ped that had an angry wasp in a bean can for an engine Laughing .

One lad stood out though, as his choice of bike was a bit different!.
He had a VERY non standard Honda C90.
I dont know what was hiding under the plastic fairing/leg-shields, but it wer`nt half quick Smile .
It was a real little wolf in sheeps clothing and I want one Smile .

Was it one of those Lifan 110cc engines or is it something else I have not heard of?
Sorry no pictures as i did`nt have a camera with me Sad .

I think the lifans go up to 160cc now quite possibly one of those, or some other 140/150/160 clone. You can get a load of performance stuff from here https://www.ooracing.com

me and a mate looking to do a couple up for winter hacks/fun times. the tuning bits are readily available and if you want to go mad with the mods it isnt that expensive. depends how far you want to go.

+1 on wanting to bolt a 140/biggest possible pitbike motor in one.

Can get around 20hp with a couple of mods to a stock (expensive) 160cc or so engine which I believe will bolt straight in to a stock c90.
Remember, as stock, c90 suspension isn't actually that great; leading link front can make for interesting/challenging situations! All part of the fun, I'm told Smile.

On that, I've got a T&T'd stock c90 for sale if anyone's interested, but it's a good bike that's I've spent a bit on, so wanting a bit more than basic peanuts (at least 'extra special ones' Razz).

Loads of C90 compatable tuning parts out there for the monkey bike brigade. The worlds your oyster really. Anything from a big bore to a short stroke crank, 5 speed gearbox and 'plug and play' nitrous kits.

I've seen a 125cc DOCH conversion too.

My friend had a CT70 with a 23bhp 160 engine in it from a pitbike.

It was awesome fun, one of the most fun bikes I've ridden Very Happy

Engine bolts straight in as well, takes less then an hour to change an engine!

Sorry to hijacking the thread but I have a Little c90 for work and was wondering of anyone knows what mode can be made to these as I fancy playing with him but cheap is key!

Any ideas to what can be done?


Cheers

Looking for no less than £400. I'm in Reading, but soon be going up to Lancashire in my van.

It's got trials tyres and only has the rear half of the front mudguard.
However, happy to swap on some (old bit knackered) road tyres along with a mud guard in one piece.

It's in the late teens mileage-wise and has done a 'supermopedathon' (see here - don't worry, nothing bad from the times it met the ground!), however I have done a reasonable amount of work on it since getting it - new air filter, oil changed, valves done, etc.
Been using it to get around town recently.

As I say, totally stock apart from tyres and mudguard.

It all depends how much you want good fuel economy and ultra reliability. If you do, then you're going to be limited as it seems the latter ones have it mostly at the expense of power.
