Here are copies of the colorised wiring diagrams I created, based on the original Honda black and white diagrams.
If you aren't familiar with reading this type of diagram (it is not has hard as it first appears!) then you can read more about them here:

Intro
If you have dismantled your bike in order to refurbish it then, once you have finished reassembling the engine, you will be faced with a large pile of bits that need putting back together. In the immortal words of the old Honda manuals:
"Perform the reassembly in the reverse procedure of disassembly."...

The final wiring system to look at on the C90Z2 super cub is the system that supports the lighting and horn. The wiring diagram is a bit more complicated compared to the ignition and charging systems:
It is not as confusing as it first appears though, and if you trace the wires from the various...

The charging system used on the 6v C90 super cubs is pretty straightforward and consists of a battery (to store electricity), an alternator (to generate electricity) and a rectifier (which converts the alternating current created by the alternator into the direct current needed by the battery). Here is the wiring diagram for the charging system:...

The job of the ignition system is to produce the spark that ignites the fuel/air mixture in the engine combustion chamber. It consists of a power source (either battery or a generator), a switching device to start and stop current flow at set intervals (contact breaker points or an electronic switch), a device to...

Electricity
Learning the basics of automotive electrical systems, even the simple system used in the Honda super cub, was something I approached with a little trepidation.
My schoolboy science got me as far as grasping that the electrons in conductive materials like metal can “jump” between atoms, displacing others in the process and thereby causing...

Honda’s Super Cub step-through motorcycle is the most successful motor vehicle ever built and a staggering number – well over 100 million – have been sold.
I was lucky enough to find a low mileage 1978 C90 for sale a few miles from where I live. It ran for about half a mile before conking...
