Honda C70 description

You are bidding on a very clean vintage bike.  What makes this bike so special is it's unbelievably low mileage.  Odometer currently reads between 142.6 and 142.7 miles (as pictured).  This was purchased from a Honda dealership.  Apparently they took it in on trade sometime ago, and it's collected dust since.  The dealer told me either one, or both of the tires were replaced at some point.  The front tire is a Cheng Shin 2 1/4 x 17 (which is how it's printed on the tire) and the rear is a Inoue 2.5 x 17.  You can verify which is not original, but both still have the rubber hairs on them and look like new.  The battery was dead when I got it.  As you know, this is a 6V system.  I was fortunate to have the EXACT original NOS Honda battery for this bike in my NOS inventory.  I filled it with acid, charged it, and it works perfectly and is installed in this bike.  The NOS box is pictured, as well as a picture of the battery installed.  How much better does it get than that?  I cleaned the carb, and this bike fired right up, runs and has been test driven,  I am not an expert on these bikes, as I refer larger bikes, but the only thing I know not to be original is the tires I mentioned previously.  I did my best to take pictures, but if you have any questions, or want to set up an appointment to inspect or test ride for yourself, I can be reached via Phone or Text at 716-481-7442. 

Some key points:
- The key is original
- The battery is an EXACT NOS match for what came in this bike from the dealer
- Original Mirrors
- All lights & switches work
      - Gauge backlight & Neutral bulbs were replaced
      - Horn Works
      - Electric Starter works
      - Headlight High/Low works
- All factory stickers/warnings seem to be in place & intact (I tried to capture them all in pictures, but please verify for yourself)
- No rips or tears in seat
- Original Rubber
     - Grips/Pegs, etc all are intact and seem to be in good shape, no cracks, etc...
- Inside of tank is clean
- Exhaust is original, no holes or concerns

Imperfections:
- Cracks by both bolts on upper side of fairing (as pictured)
- Minor oxidation on mirrors/racks

Again, don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or to setup an appointment for inspection.  Please understand, this bike is FOR SALE locally as well.  Therefore, I reserve the right to end the auction at any time!

Happy Bidding!
