Honda CB description

I purchased this motorcycle in October 2011 with 2,421 miles. It was in really good condition overall when I bought it, other than a few chips and scuffs in the paint.  
The restoration consisted of complete disassembly and all the parts were media blasted and painted with basecoat clear coat two-stage paint in the original Honda Scarlet Red.   It was color matched to an original NOS can of Honda paint.  The can as shown in pics is not included in sale. Gas tank coated with Ethanol Resistant Caldwell two-stage Epoxy. Wheels were unlaced, hubs were polished and wheels are re-laced with new spokes. The rims are near perfect with very little patina. The original tires were replaced with Vee rubber and they are period original.  Included with the sale are both the original front and rear tires.


No rust on the exhaust and side covers and they are in excellent condition. Slight pitting on the front and rear shocks chrome. All the chrome was polished.

The engine has had a basic tune-up which included plugs, points, condenser, valve adjustment and timing. The carburetors have been cleaned and all fuel lines are replaced with Honda NOS. The bike starts and runs perfectly and with this low mileage, no mechanical work is needed. All electrical (starter, lights, etc.) is working as it should. 

The bike is all original except I added two Honda turn signals which required two handlebar switches (1969 CB175).  If the buyer prefers, I will remove the turn signals and reinstall the original handle bar switches.  The last photo in this ad shows the bike without any turn signals.  Also, the wiring harness was NOT altered to install the turn signals.

The seat has a NOS installed by the previous owner and is excellent shape. New NOS foot, shift, and kick start rubber. Includes tools and Owners Manual.

CASH PAYMENT UPON PICKUP OR BY BANK TRANSFER OR CASHIERS CHECK.  FUNDS MUST CLEAR THE BANK BEFORE BIKE IS RELEASED.  A $200 PAYPAL DEPOSIT IS DUE WITHIN 24 HOURS AT END OF AUCTION.  PLEASE DON’T BID UNLESS YOU ARE PLANNING ON BUYING.

BIKE CAN BE PICKED UP IN CENTRAL KENTUCKY (ZIP CODE 40324) OR BUYER IS FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIPPING, BUT I WILL ASSIST WITH LOADING.  IF HAVING THE BIKE PICKED UP AT MY LOCATION BY SOMEONE OTHER THAN BUYER, ALL PAPERWORK (EXCEPT TITLE) WILL BE MAILED TO YOU FOR SIGNATURES AND WILL NEED TO BE RETURNED TO ME BEFORE BIKE IS PICKED UP.  ALL COMPLETED PAPERWORK, INCLUDING TITLE, WILL THEN BE MAILED BACK TO YOU. 

IF ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CALL MY CELL 502-316-3795. TEXTS WILL NOT BE REPLIED TO.

The most spectacular, and perhaps dangerous, road race in the world is more than a month away — a painfully long wait for fans! — but the Isle of Man is ramping up activities for the 2012 Isle of Man TT with the official race kickoff event slated for tomorrow, Wednesday, April 18, at Villa Marina in the Isle of Man’s capital, Douglas. The launch event takes place at 7pm [GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) or 4pm EST in the U.S.], and will broadcast live via webstream on the TT’s official site homepage: www.iomtt.com.

Honda VTR-Powered Lawn Mower Claims 133mph Top Speed

Wed, 17 Jul 2013

Honda UK has teamed up with its British Touring Car Championship partner Team Dynamics to produce what it calls the world’s fastest lawn mower. The Honda Mean Mower is powered by a 996cc V-Twin engine from a VTR1000F Superhawk, leading Honda to claim a top speed of 133 mph and a 0-60 time of four seconds. Based on a Honda HF2620 lawn tractor, the Mean Mower uses an all-new 4130 chromoly steel chassis and bespoke suspension and wheels from a Honda ATV.

Kenny Roberts Motorcycle Collection Up For Sale

Wed, 25 Apr 2012

Motorcycling legend Kenny Roberts has commissioned RMD Motors to auction off some rare and exclusive motorcycles from his collection, presumably to make room for more. The Japan-based company is known the world over for its collection of rare and classic motorcycles for sale, many of which are retired grand prix machines fortunate enough to escape the fate of most decommissioned racebikes: the crusher.  Headlining the Roberts collection is the 2004 Proton KRV5 originally ridden by Kurtis Roberts, King Kenny’s youngest son. The five-cylinder grand prix machine never achieved much success on the world stage, but will easily make you the center of attention at your local trackday.
