Honda c90 problems?



hi i have a honda cub 90 and there are a few problems that i hope you can help me with. 1st one is that when i apply the back break it sticks on and it wont release the wheel so the bike goes no where, 2nd one is that the petrol gauge has stopped working the needle is stuck on half a tank all the time and the 3rd one is that the neutral light no longer works and neither does the indicators but the head light and the back light both work so its not a flat battery please help me !

Rear brake
--The brakes could be so worn, that when you apply the brake, the cam that opperates them could be turning a full 90 degrees and get stuck until you bump it by hand.
--The brake actuator could be corroded where it goes into the brake panel. Remove it and clean it with a wire brush. Then clean the hole it goes through.
--Where the brake shoes attach to the brake panel could be corroded
--The wheel will have to be removed to inspest the brakes.

Indicators
--The bulbs could be burnt out.
--The sockets the bulbs are in could be corroded and not making a good connection to the bulbs.
--The neutral light switch could be bad. The wire at the switch (Light Green/Red) - touch it to ground with the key on. If the light comes on, the switch is bad. The switch is probably near the countershaft sprocket (front sprocket). Remove the left crankcase cover that covers the chain.
You have had bad luck with this one. How old is it? Probably new petrol gauge as for the rest of it get it around to a garage as they are hard to work on. I had one for 12 years with no problems, apparently the C90 is the worlds best selling bike.
I had one too, with carb problems. Suggest you take yours to the shop; you'll likely do more damage if you try working on it yourself. Don''t ask me how I know ...
Could be a blown main fuse or bad battery as the the head and taillamps work directly from the generator lighting coils.
The indicators etc. get their power from the battery.
The rear shoes are probably worn out and the brake cam travel is excessive, or the pivot in the pedal or backplate is seized.
