Now that someone mentioned the Honda S90 it brought up
memories of some fun times... mine looked a lot like this:

Here's an ad from the era:

I had a removable oversize rear sprocket for mine, producing
an extreme low gear for off-road use and I used to explore
the trails and forest roads west of Calgary.

My first and third motorcycles were Zundapps

One of my all time favorite machines. Blindingly simple
and easy to work on and incredibly resistant to the
kind of damage a teenage wannabe mechanic could do.
Second one I found disassembled in a box. Put it back
together and it started on the third kick.

It was German engineering...of course it started on the third
kick. ;^) I kinda miss my Jawa 90 (72 iirc) it was actually quiet fast
for a 90...the handling surpassed the brakes and suspension though.

I think the whole Jawa line is happily retired to India now
and probably living right next door to Enfield.
