Honda Clasic C70 Motorcycle

Honda Clasic C70 Motorcycle:

This page lists the maintenance and general specifications of the C70 from 1970 to 1986. Other pages deal with maintenance and repair of the bike, through the Small Honda Homepage. This specifications chart is not yet complete. There were numerous detail changes to the bikes during this period, and some markets also had other variations. Generally, up until the mid to late 1970's they used a down draught carburettor, but for the later ones they switched to a side draught. The frame was modernised slightly in style in about 1982, although the older frame continued to sell a little beyond this. The most significant change was from 6 volts and points ignition to 12 volts and CDI electronic ignition. Electric start was fitted for some markets, but only as an option in others. Electric start models had a slightly different fairing. Models sold in north America in the early 1980's were known as the 'Passport'. Clymer: M310-12, ISBN 0-89287-683-2.
