Nice score,oldskool. 8)
SL70,is it?
Always liked that blue colour.
Bit of elbow grease to clean some rust off here and there, and that'll be a beautiful looking bike.

hi mark and misfit,i think the bloke i bought it off got it from towoomba swap meat,it was on ebay for about a week starting at $600 no bids,he put it back on starting at $550.i looked at it the other day still had no bids on it today so rang him to see if he'd take the 550 and sell it today ;D.needs a carby kit put through it but one came with it,also has the blinkers and chainguard none of the wiring is there but the ignition still works.it was advertised as a xl100 it has a rego sticker from 2003 that says its a sl100 theres a cover on the motor on the head that says 125 ??? so ill check the engine and frame numbers and ring honda,its mid 70's and i took it for a ride up the road and it rides quite well.cheers gary

It looks like it could be either an SL or XL100 going by the bodywork. The 100 and 125 motors were basically the same except for bore size.

I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

you can pick a 100cc engine by the lack of a bulge under the side of the clutch cover and a lack of fins of the left hand side of the cylinder
