The Honda CT110, also known as the Trail 110, debuted in 1980 as the successor to the popular CT90. It used a simple and robust 105cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine paired with a 4-speed semi-automatic clutch. The key feature for US models was a dual-range transmission, offering a set of low gears for steep terrain at the flip of a lever.
In Australia, the CT110 became famous as the 'Postie Bike,' a single-range version built for the extreme demands of daily mail delivery. Collectors value the CT110 for its unbreakable reputation, mechanical simplicity, and go-anywhere attitude. Parts are widely available, and its lightweight design makes it easy to work on and transport.
The market for the CT110 is strong, with an average sale price around $4,500. The wide price spectrum is driven by condition and specification. Well-used examples can be found for under $2,000, while pristine, low-mileage 'Trail' models with the desirable dual-range gearbox have sold for close to $14,000.
Buying Tips
- Verify the transmission type; US 'Trail' models should have the high/low range selector near the front sprocket. Test its function.
- Inspect the pressed-steel frame for rust, particularly under the seat, in the battery box area, and around the swingarm pivot.
- Check the 6-volt electrical system thoroughly. Brittle wiring and poor connections are common issues that affect lights and ignition.
- Look for original equipment like the snorkel air intake, chrome rear rack, and auxiliary fuel tank, as these items are often missing.
- Ask about the bike's history, as many were used hard on farms or as delivery vehicles, leading to high mileage and wear.
Prices for the Honda CT110 range from $1,666 for well-used examples to $13,875 for top-spec, low-mileage bikes.
