It looks original to me and in that climate, it would be a good place to hibernate for 35 years if you were a minibike! You did good and $1,500 for a bike that so few were made and even fewer survived is a steal. Enjoy Scuba!

I think i would be sleeping on his doorstep.![]()
Definitely a well kept all original ct, great buy!
The guy got it from a collector in 2002 who said it was all original. If it was redone i doubt there would be rust showing on those few parts that are worn down.
From what I can see , If that bike is indeed original , you got one great deal . The paint on the 75 & 79 (yellow) usually show all flaws - yours looks great . Make sure you keep up that same level of care .
Just a couple CT70's **
I got the bike, its sweeeet!!!!
1970 CT70HK0 Candy Emerald Green (restored)
1972 CT70HK1 Candy Ruby Red (restored)
1973 CT70K2 Candy Topaz Orange (Grandfather's original)
1974 CT70K3 Candy Topaz Orange (low mileage original)
1974 CT70K3 Candy Riviera Blue (restoration-in progress)
I'd buy it. A 50cc Metropolitan scooter will run you $2,000
Nice bike... let's see some more photos!!!!!!
i'll get some up soon, I am replacing the fuel lines and rebuilding the carb, it had old fuel in it, so i am cleaning it all out. Do any of your know where to get a main jet holder, the part that the main jet goes in??
