   Anyone know if the parts from a ct70 fit on my S65?

What parts exactly are you looking for? the S65 was a 63cc, the CT70 a 72cc motor. Not sure if that kit will be universal for both bikes. For the S65 it would probably be a "big bore"

Go to the CMSNL web site in the Netherlands and compare part numbers. If they are the same, they will fit.

But I doubt much will cross over. I think the S65 is a pushrod motor where the CT70 uses rocker arms.

Edit: I stand corrected. The S65 appears to also be a rocker arm engine. Given the age, I thought probably pushrod.

I wouldnt, it comes from China

 You say you have a 1965 s65 and the kit says good for a 1969. If you go with it make sure the exhaust pipe and carb outlet on the head is the same angle etc. as what yours is.  I have noticed there are differences in those in the Honda 90cc parts when I was looking for a cylinder/piston etc. for my S90. Finally bought a whole parts bike cheap with an engine that turns over for $75.00 locally.

I know this is much more expensive...but this is what I am going to do with my S90 instead of a rebuild. Pretty sure it is Bolt-on for you...I have to do frame mods and I pretty sure a re-wire....

Wow,this motor is way too big for my little S65!!
I just want a little more hp,and most of all reliability.

...Beside the motor,someone know where I could find turn signal lens for this bike...or is there someone here on the forum,who can make them?
Frankenfrankenstuff maybe!?

S-65 is included in the same Honda factory manual as C70 and CL70.
My guess is they're the same engine with different pistons.
I got one of those 90cc kits for a C70M - cheap and worked good, but the valves needed lapping. The extra oomph is appreciated.......
There are a variety of Lifan and other brands of plug-in complete engines for a few hundred bucks.

[bert96]

I read somewhere that a guy have installed a piston from a 350.

Heres a picture.

I bought this bike without the papers,i've checked with the Police and the bike have not been stolen,good to know!
Any guys from Quebec that have been through all the process to get new papers?

Any tips!?
