Making a CT90 Internal Battery Bracket

A common item that is missing on a lot of old Honda CT90's is the sheet metal bracket that helps cradle the battery in the opening on the side of the frame.  When the battery is removed there really isn't anything retaining the bracket, so it can very easily get left out and ultimately lost.

You can sometimes find a used inner battery bracket on eBay, but lately when I have needed one I just make one as it is a very simple part and if you own a pair of tin snips and are a little bit crafty, you can make one in a few minutes.

I made the attached drawing below to help others who may be in a situation where they need a inner battery bracket and would like to fab one up, but are looking for the overall dimensions of the bracket.


The drawing does not have the dimensions for the depressions stamped into the original Honda designed bracket that add stiffness to the part, but the design on the drawing will give you a good functional part.

I hope this post was helpful and have fun making your own CT90 inner battery bracket!
