Congrats! What year is it?

There are a lot of cool accessories for the C70—a front rack that goes over the fender, rear baskets that go on either side like saddle bags, even hard cases.

It's a great scoot!

1970

You picked up a Gem. It looks to be in excellent condition for a 1970. I remember seeing alot of those or like those in the Asia during the 70's. Cool find.

It's gorgeous! :!: Did it need any work? How fast does it go? I'll bet the mpg is phenomenal.

Great find! I've been lusting for one meself. Did you just happen to run across it or were you deliberately looking for one.

That's the best color too.

There's a very nicely outfitted one for sale in AZ/NV on eBay. There's also one of those 2-tone seats for sale on eBay, going cheap.

I have some Cubs from Asia,some Chalys and a Dax. The early or Asian versions are cooler as they have nice tight chrome turn signals. Those huge black ones are brutal. I had one painted white and it looks great. Nice find BTW
