Stock Doodle Bug.
Here it is with the 6.5hp Predator 212cc motor from Harbor Freight. It's a clone of the Honda gx200 motor at 1/3 the cost. I love it so far.
And here is my Honda ct70. I got it on Craigslist. Complete restoration every nut and bolt new or re chromed or powder coated. It has a 125cc honda clone motor with 4 speed manual trans.

Love that CT70!
MY cousin had one when we were growing up. I bet that 125 put some pep in it's step!

ahh the old CT 70, brings memories. A few friends had them.
The SL 70, or xr 70 were better but not half as popular.
Hot setup on the ct 70 was to find the 90cc version and bolt it on and make a ''sleeper'' Ha ha
I do notice you don't have the bolt on chrome down tubes that wrap around the cylinder conecting the headset to the bottom. So careful how much you jump it as it can fold the chassis. We did it to a few before realizing it as kids.

Thanks guys. The 125 in the Honda is a little 4 stroke similar to what they put in those mini motocross pit bikes. It moves pretty good, even with me on it and i weigh 200 lbs.
I dont want the chrome down tubes because i like the looks better without and im definitely not jumping anything other than an rc lol ive never been good at it and im too old to pick it up now!

Nice rig KennyMy full size ride
Man I really miss riding more than anything else on this planet. Do you use it often?
I'd ride hard every weekend both Sat and Sunday and try to squeak in a couple hours during the week.
What's a red sticker, is that some sort of violation??

Red stickers are just one of many reasons California bites.
You have to register off road vehicles unless they never leave your property. If a cop finds out its not registered you get fined.
So when you register it you ger a green or red sticker based on emissions standards. The sticker must be placed on the left fork so as to be seen from the left so they know where to look from far away. Green stickers are ok to operate on public land year around and red stickers get an anual window of operation time based on your local laws. We can ride red here from October to April.
Of course if you own property you can do whatever you want ride all year with no exhaust whatever you want. But I live in town so i need to use the CA off highway vehicle parks to ride so i gotta play by they rules.

Wow, that's whacked out.
Guess it's the demise of 2 strokes in Ca then.
I do like the 4 strokes better, at least on bigger bikes. But the 125 class really needs a 2 stroke.

Those are some nice bikes. And, yeah, Cali laws suck mud.
