I just bought this Honda bike locally and was going to restore it. 1965 Honda ca200. It's 90cc. I was wondering if these are the same 90cc motors they used on the ct90. I a, hoping they are so parts would be easier to find. Any part suppliers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks MFW

Some interchange, some do not. Your bike does not have the hi/low transmission and the carb is different. The advancer on yours is also a little hotter on timing.

At some point, the cylinder or head also changed to make cross matching difficult so this may not be as easy as you think.

Here's one and it looks like it's a pushrod. Is this what yours looks like?

Pushrod motors are cool! Not as fast... but who cares? Check out this guy's blog: Chalopy. It seems like he really loves 90 pushrod motors more than anything. Probably some good info if you read for a bit.

I believe it's the pushrod motor. It looks just like that bike. Thanks for the information. Now the search begins for parts.

What condition is the bike in? What's missing on it? Let's see a picture!

I'm a really big fan of this particular bike, but I've actually never seen one in person. I have a brand new plastic front fender from Thailand if you need one.

I thought it would fit in my C110 forks, but it's just a tad larger and doesn't fit.

It seems like the C200 and the original C100 are the only old bikes that they make reproduction plastic parts for. They're mostly from Thailand for a pretty reasonable price.

Those bikes look very satisfying to ride, especially after putting some work into 'em.
