honda cg110 / 100

odd request,
There is a 110cc and 100cc varient of the venerable cg125 motor, same crank/stroke etc, just sleeved down.

I need to source either a cg100 or 110cc motor (not 125cc).
genuine honda preferably, or the barrel,piston and head, so I can graft it onto a cg125 bottom end. Anybody any idea how to source one in GB?

If you have no luck...

If you can't find one over there, I know where there are a couple of CG110s in NZ. They were very common.

Umm, my mums going to nZ in the new year, I wonder if she would stick the motor in her suitcase on the way back. How difficult would it be to source a motor (or the top end of one)??

Thumbs up

I will make enquiries and let you know.
I have a friend who races a CG125, and has lots of spare bikes.

races CG125s! he should come to Iran where there are at least 10 brands of Honda's ubiquitous gem ... I saw a 30-way race along country lanes the other day ... some were two-up and clipping both verges as they hurtled the other way

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
