    guess #1 looks like you are meeting a surprised gay guy.
    not sure you would post that here.

    guess #3 has two ramps so you either have a 4wheeler or
    are too chicken to ride up a ramp without a training ramp.
    not sure you would post that here either.

    i'll go for #2

    you must be buying a new(old) bike. you are bringing cash so
    it must be vintage.

    I sense that Jo-Momma is imminent unless original poster takes great pains to re-direct this train.

    A ten hour trip will wipe that silly grin off my face. But I've got my two babies. The trip went well, great weather, sunshine, warm, got to meet a few strangers. Met someone from Florida going north with a busted radiator. He wasn't moving too fast. Great scenery.

    No ticket for me

    Some of the 4wheeler, wheel chair, and side car comments might seem silly after finding out the real reason for the two ramps. It is a scientific reason as you will see from the pics.

    Finally we get to the pics of my two new arrivals. One is a girl and one is a boy. Cigars anyone? Some might be disappointed but remember I am old. Maybe a wheel chair side car isn't a bad idea.

    1973 and 1974 respectively Honda CT90s. One with 1500 miles and the other with 3200. I already had some fun on them when riding the test rides and on my gravel drive. They drive great and just need some tender care and love.

    I got one.

    Cool score! With those spare fuel tanks and late-model luggage racks, those bikes look abnormally wide. I have an old 64 CT200, that looks emaciated in comparison. It looks like the wheels and tires got a lot wider through the years too.

    Now, your next thread has to be an adventure ride report on those bikes. Better take you wife along though, and not a buddy. Otherwise PostalDave will keep making gay jokes!

    With a name like Postal I wouldn't expect anything less. :lol3 You mean I have to go on an adventure? Is my front yard good enough? There could be snakes. Actually I have already started thinking along those lines. I need to give the bikes a tuneup, check the batteries, air filter, change the oil, check all lights, etc... Normal stuff.

    I checked out the pics of the CT200. The similarities are uncanny. The widths look similar, but maybe the 90 is a little wider or the seat height makes it look that way.

    The CT200 IS basically a CT90. It is only 90cc, not 200. I'm not sure why they started out calling it a CT200.

    Speaking of Postal Bikes (not PostalDave) these bikes are known as "posties" in Australia, where they are used to deliver mail. For a proper ADVrider adventure on posties, check out this thread. This is what you have to beat to take the title as ADVrider's small-displacement ADventurer:
