Honda CT90 Engine Reassembly

Image
I have one 1971 CT90 where I was going to rebuild the clutch because the kickstarter just wasn't turning over the engine like it used too,  and I also had a Big Bore kit from DrATV that I wanted to install. My intent was to just do the top end and rebuild the clutch with new disks, but when I opened up the cases to rebuild the clutch pack I found a slick black slime in the bottom of the case.  I didn't like the idea that there could be black slime in the rest of the engine, so I decided to disassemble the entire engine to make sure I cleaned everything out.  Since I was tearing everything apart I thought I would document step by step how everything goes back together in this post in case others were interested in knowing what the inner workings of a CT90 engine look like.

Product Review - Harbor Freight/Haul Master Motorcycle Carrier use with a CT90 A few months ago I picked up a Haul Master motorcycle carrier from Harbor freight to use to haul around CT90's that I own. The carrier normally sells for $124.99, but it was a holiday weekend when I bought the carrier and Harbor Freight had a special 25% off coupon so the cost was very close to $100.00 out the door which I though was a pretty good deal.

Making a Transparent Timing Cover for your CT90

I was working on a post about dynamically timing CT90's recently and decided to make a clear plastic cover like the one in the picture below so that I could view the timing marks while the engine was running and not have to worry about the small amount of oil that splashes out.
