CT 110 Trail 110
The Honda CT series was a group of Honda trail bike motorcycles made since 1964. The CT designation is a slight exception in Honda nomenA description of the CT-series is necessarily convoluted because it spans several decades during which Honda altered its naming system, re-used previously issued CT designations, assigned different model names for different markets, and sometimes used multiple names for the same model within single markets.
Alongside, a ST-series bike was renamed CT70 for the Canadian and US market from 1969 to 1994. Honda also uses the CT designation to cover an Australia-only series of "farm bikes" for agricultural work. In 1981 Honda released a CT250S Silk Road "trekking bike", and in 1983 a Japan-only CT50 Motra minibike. These last two vehicles are mechanically unrelated to other CT-series bikes, and each other. clature in that "CT" does not indicate a series of mechanically related bikes, but rather a group of different bikes that are all for casual off-road use
The CT110 is still in production and sold in other countries around the world, most notably Australia and New Zealand, where it is known as a "Postie Bike" due to its use by Australia Post and New Zealand Post as a delivery bike, without the dual range sub-transmission. In Australia this also makes them the highest selling motorcycle in the country. There are several performance variants of the CT110, those built to the factory specifications of TLC Motors are widely regarded as the best, known as the Mat Donnelly special.
A slightly modified version, the CT110 AG, is sold for agricultural use. The CT110AG has recently become road-registerable in Australia (2009), and has been road registerable in New Zealand for some time.
After almost 30 years of only being available via second-hand sale from Australia Post in bulk lots, Honda began selling the road-registerable model to the domestic market in July 2009.
Apart from the Australian market, large numbers of CT110 and CT90 models were also brought to Tanzania in east Africa, where many are still in use today. Among the original users was Danish aid organisation Danida. During the late 1970s and 1980s they were the standard issue motorcycle for volunteers.
