Title: Best C90 EVER!!
Post by: andy230 on June 19, 2009, 10:20:41 AM

My mate (JonnyC) sent me this wee bit from the TT...

About one minute in, there is the best sounding C90 ever!  Not great for Pizza delivery, but I like it.  Not sure about the riding attire tho!

Wel  if you like these you would love the Purple Helmets.

They do a show at the TT and most of them are on very heavily adapted C90s.  One MZ is required top pull a piano and (fat) passenger.

There's a chap in work attempting to do the Welsh 2 day enduro on a modified C90 for charity! The bike looks great but sadly there is no picture on his web page. I'll ask him to email one to me on Monday but in the mean time you might want to take a look at his page. I reckon it's worth a quid just to hear how he gets on  ;D Link's below.

I managed to grab a still from that YouTube clip:

I think the C90 boys are turning into my bike heroes of choice, they're getting dafter and dafter.

Hey Pat Do you work for Gwent Constabualary now ? If so that would explain the loony on the vx800 wearing a black Arai Freeway I see on my way home most days  ;)

I know Huw from when he was just a motorcycle PC, I even let him borrow my XR250 on occasions :-\  I hope his machine preparation has improved ::) When I rode enduros Huw raced in the expert class so if the weather holds for the 2 day he is quite capable of a finish on the C90

I haven't seen him for a several years now but I hear the boy done good!
Please pass on my regards when you see him  :)

Yes I do work for Gwent Police and Yes Huw's machine prep has inproved. I was hoping to get a picture of his heavily modified C90, but he'd left already for the ride.

Where do you spot me then?? What are you riding/driving?? I'll look out for you and give you a wave. ;D

I see you on the roundabout by police HQ I'm either riding a Silver Pegaso or driving a Light Blue Merc 190 on a K plate ;D
