The '''Honda C70''' is a [[Four stroke|4-stroke]] 72[[cc]] [[OHC]] [[street motorcycle]] manufactured by [[Honda]] between 1970 and 1984, which replaced the similar [[Honda C65|C65 model]].  The '''C70''' was the elder brother of [[Honda C50|Cub C50]], with more power, same cheap economical ride and reliability. It was introduced in USA, Canada, Asia and Vietnam in 1970, and introduced to the UK in 1972.  Later US versions were called '''Honda Passport'''.


It had a 72[[cc]] air-cooled single [[OHC|overhead cam]] engine (a bigger-bore version of the C65), an automatic 3-speed gearbox, enough power to pull this motorcycle to a top speed of 50 [[mph]] (80 [[km/h]]). First models had 6 volt electrics, in 1982 12volt electrics and [[CDI]] [[ignition]] were introduced to further improve the reliability of the engine, and to ease servicing.
