Very nice find. Not sure what they're worth but they are very cool little pit, trail, play bikes--hold on to it--it's a classic!

A few years ago one of my friends sold his for $300 localy. He just parked it infront of his house and had it sold in a few hours. Several people stopped and were interested. They are very popular for peolpe to buy for their kids because they are so easy to ride and cheap. Used parts are very easy to find. They are alot of fun to ride around the yard, I am thinkg of buying one in the spring from someone I know for a restoration project.

Is it a ct 70 ? I have seen them sell for around $900 or more for real nice ones.I had 2 when I was a kid and the old man got ticked off at me about somthing and took them both to the dump.Wish I still had them,there is a guy not far from here that collects and restores them.

What part of TN are you in? I have a 74 Green CT70 also. Fully restored, 88cc bore, oversized carb, K&N filter. You really should consider hanging on to it. They are classics, and if you have your title they can be made street legal. It is easy to sink a lot of money in these things. We have about $1500 in ours on top of the actual bike. These bikes dont really sell all that well. You will not get back what you put into it monitarily, but the plain fun of these things is why you restore and ride them.

my freind had a 1983 CT70 i think it was and it was a beast to say the least...it had a ductape seat and everything worked on it just not properly....the thing i loved the most was the working speedometre and the funny thing was u had to wind it out in second so once u hit 3rd u would gain speed..half the time u went faster in second then u did in third..but i loved rideing it it was a blast to take on small jumps and do long wheelies.

Got any pics.? The one that I want to get in the spring is a early 70's and needs the gas tank, throttle, and headlight. The kid who has it offered it to me 2 years ago for $100 so hopefully he still has it. I may also see about the one that my friend sold, it was a 1970.
