2008
The Honda Trail CT110 is still being produced and sold outside the United States. The most common places we hear about them is in Australia and New Zealand.
Bernard Scott, recently purchased a CT110 in New Zealand and sent us the following information and photos.
There has been a lot of confusion and some well meant stabs in the dark, concerning new CT's in Australasia.
Here is the real deal ....
CT110 with the dual range sub transmission :
Available new to anyone in both Australia and NZ. (NZ$3,995, late 2008)
Not street legal in Australia, but they ARE street legal in New Zealand.
In New Zealand, owners manual documentation label is "UB" or "NZ".
CT110 with High range only :
Available new only to the postal services of Australia and New Zealand, but readily obtainable second hand ex-postal service, usually at 25-30,000km. (Aprox NZ$1,000)
In New Zealand, owners manual documentation label is "UY".
Street legal in both Australia and New Zealand.
Additional Infromation
The starting frame number for a 2008 New Zealand CT110 was not able to be ascertained by the local Honda dealer. This is because bikes are purchased in batches from Honda Japan (manufacturer) and stored by Honda New Zealand (distributor) until requested by a retail dealer. A bike can be stored for some time before it is sold to a customer and eventually registered. There have been no model changes for many years, so, even if it has been stored for a couple of years, when it is sold to a customer, it is recorded as the year in which it was registered. Therefore the frame number does not always relate to the date the bike was registered; however, there is part of the frame number that indicates the year it was manufactured. The CT110 in the photos below was actually manufactured in 2006, sold/purchased in 2008, and not registered until January 2009. So, the New Zealand government now considers it a 2009.
