Good Points

Well proven Honda engine, Fully enclosed chain, why don't all bikes have this? Economy, durability, versatility.


Bad Points

No need for electric start or gear box. Fuel gauge is not at all linear (doesn't move until the tank is one third empty and then drops alarmingly)... I guess I'm just nitpicking really - I loved my old C90.


General Comments

Same wonderful bike as the 1969 C90 which I bought second hand in the late Seventies, when I was eighteen - the sun always shone, everyone was was happy, and the world was much less complicated.
I am currently in the Philippines and recently bought a 100cc Wave - The new version of the bike. Over 30 years on and it is still the same, reliable, light, easy to ride, universal, machine that Honda got exactly right the first time. I have owned many bikes since my C90 and I currently ride a 1200cc Buell Cyclone when I am home in UK.
I am not some old codger waxing lyrical about his youth, I have used the new bike in the harsh conditions of the Philippines and found it ideal as a run around motorcycle. The frame rust issue was always a problem in the UK with older bikes but everything rusts in UK - the engines go on forever (change oil every 1000 miles if you love your bike, any bike).
In Summary, if you are thinking of buying a low maintenance, easy to ride, economical bike, for local use... (I once met a guy who crossed the Alps on one with his 13 year old daughter and 2 suitcases on the back)... Get One!
