Can I fit a barrel and piston from a C90 onto a C50? (1986 model)
January 10, 2004 at 2:33 pm #17210ac mitchellParticipantHi uhuh, dont know,but in the classic motorcycle mechanics issue 187 a guy doing a rebuild on a monkey bike a honda DAX which has the same engine as the step throughs, Quotes,I know the top ends are interchangeable between the 50 and 70,but not with the 90 which implies the 90s are different unquote,That was from the May2003 issue.You may be able to ask the chap, this is hes web address from the Magazine, [email protected], OK?

January 11, 2004 at 10:48 am #17211imperialdataKeymasterFitted a C70 barrel and piston to my SS50. Thought I would get 2 fifths more power – WRONG! I guess that’s the naive logic of a 16 year old who desperately wants to overtake buses.
February 14, 2004 at 5:36 pm #17212wheelieParticipantHe he he. Remember overtaking buses was a real challenge on them 50’s
I’ve donated to the forum, have you?May 18, 2004 at 8:13 pm #17213Big_EvilParticipantThis is Irrelevant I know….but the fork seals on the C50 are the same ones for a Honda CG 125 if anyone cares.
May 18, 2004 at 9:46 pm #17214imperialdataKeymasterNot irrelevant at all mate, just the kind of info someone may need.
(I care [])

I also bought a box of assorted 70 and 90 spares off ebay when i was building bike and it looks like most stuff is interchangeable.
