Think I'm going to see a parts bike today. (if he doesn't change his mind and decide not to sell me anything)Anyone want me to look for anything in particular?

If it's not too late..I am looking for original handlebars CA95 or CA160...any condition. Bent OK if not severe or creased. Rust OK

He never called me back. Giving him a day or two so as not to annoy, then I'll check for you

Hey Spokes,

I have a CT90 handle bar on mine, they are not as wide as the rusted bars that were on mine, but they have the internal throttle hinge slot and fit my clamp and controls just fine. Here's a link to one, if you wanna take a look... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-Trail-...r#ht_500wt_764 Theres also these NOS for a dream 90 http://www.ebay.com/itm/HONDA-C200-C...#ht_7140wt_750

Thanks Jet. I actually have a set of Honda 90 bars. The only thing I am missing is the cable stop. The original cable stop was slotted where as the Honda 90 bars (as well as aftermarket bars) have an oval cable stay.

I still want to check for original bars, but I may change my mind depending on what I find. Since the build from scratch bike is headed for donation, I have to make sure the throttle as well as other controls work perfectly.

I have also found new aftermarket horn, signal, light assemblies that may work. I bought a new drag style bar just for kicks. Again, I may do some creative out of the box designs or just keep the original equipment.
