Wanted to say hello to everyone. I'm from Minnesota and have owned several z50s over the years as well as the occasional CT70 and non-honda minibikes. Love the old Hondas especially though. They are just downright fun to ride and wrench on. Life has been busy lately so I have a few projects waiting in the shed. Attached are some as found pictures of an ST70 I picked up last summer. What makes it unique is it still has the very rusty Wyoming license plate from 1973, a Wyoming inspection fork sticker, and an FE Warren Air Force Base parking tag sticker. This combined with being an ST70 and having an aircraft landing wheel tire on the front, and a whole boat load of Kilometers on the odometer leads me to believe it likely cought a ride home with an Air Force member in the late 60s to early 70s. It's real rough but basically all there. My plan is to clean it, seal off rust, and get it riding but keep it as original as possible. The motor is locked so this could be tricky. I had never seen an ST70 before this so let me know if anyone has any other Info. Thanks for letting me in to the forum.

Nice dax. Most everything you need is still available as long as you're willing to pay for overseas shipping.
 
Very cool bike. Either Japanese model or Japanese export. It's for the removable front end. Be very careful with the wiring and throttle connectors if you ever decide to remove it.

No, I'm in Minnesota, from what I was told, previous owners uncle found it at a farm scrap clean up in Minnesota more than 15 years ago, it sat outside in his back yard until I got it. It's had an interesting life.
