I got these 70's about a month ago and got them running like champs. They've been sitting for a while so today i decided to take them out and begin my restoration. Check it out.

1969 CT 70

1971 CT 70

Here we go...

Tore the motor out today and started to clean up some 30 year old caked dirt

jordon372 · 11-26-2008, 12:44 AM

Bump

You have got two nice models there! My first one was a 70' CT70 in blue sapphire. Good luck!

muxster · 11-26-2008, 08:16 AM

AWesome. His and hers...what a find! I remember lots of older motohomers having these on the front and rear of their rigs back in the 70's. That was a common site on the road.

jordon372 · 11-26-2008, 09:00 AM

Haha I wish but I'm only 17. Yeah I understand that these bikes were awesome back in the day cuz they are so convenient. It's crazy how little space the bikes can fit in cuz the bars fold down.

jordon372 · 12-02-2008, 03:15 PM

Bump. Does anyone know if a new cylinder made for a crf 50 will fit on this motor? I was also wondering if you could run a domes piston with a stock head?

fatcaaat · 12-02-2008, 03:22 PM

That green one is worth a lot of money restored properly...

jordon372 · 12-02-2008, 03:25 PM

Oh really? Why's that and what do you mean by restored properly?

Nope. You'll need a short stroke cylinder, as well as a short stroke head.

Find an ATC70 doner for the top end, be sure and get an ATC70 intake as well. Most power/dollar.

jordon372 · 12-02-2008, 03:35 PM

Dang... How much could I pick that stuff up for?

LoudFastUgly · 12-02-2008, 03:45 PM

i got all of it for under $100 on fleabay.

jordon372 · 12-02-2008, 03:59 PM

So does the atc head have bigger valves and I wanna bore the motor that why I asked if that cylinder will work

Much larger intake and exhaust valves, intake port is also much larger. Type ATC70 head into the search engine here, lots to read.

jordon372 · 12-02-2008, 07:11 PM

Alright I will do that and it's kinda crazy but I actually have an old atc 70 laying around

What years of atcs will fit?

Why and what do you mean by properly restored??? Can anyone tell me about these bikes?

RAZZO · 12-03-2008, 07:58 AM

A correctly restored (all stock, correct paint, chrome, alum.,cables, blah blah) CT70H KO will bring $4000. 95+ point resto. Most desirable USA model.
