Honda CB description

Dad has given up riding and it's time for his last bike to go. A very presentable example of the Honda 350 Four. While it is not an immaculate show bike, it always draws admiring comments. Much recent work ensures this bike does not need extensive recommissioning and is truly ready to ride. I will do my best to describe the bike completely, good and bad. I am happy to answer any questions or take additional pictures as needed. I will attempt to make the bike available for in person inspections.

Some of the highlights include:

Carb service and tune-up by the wizards at Retrospeed in Belgium, WI (2010).

Rebuilt brake caliper with stainless steel piston (2010).

New tires (Duro) and tubes (2010).

New battery in 2012.

New 4 into 1 aftermarket exhaust system (2010).

As mentioned, the bike is very presentable. However there is some sun fading on the top of the tank and both side covers. Also fading to the gauges and controls as is typical for Hondas of this vintage.

An up close look to the paint on the tank reveals micro cracking. The paint is smooth to the touch and intact.

Chrome is good and chrome on wheels is good.

Small dent on lower portion of rear fender.

Small dent (barely visible) on lower left side of tank.

Seat is good. No tears and vinyl is pliable.

I believe the front turn signals are aftermarket replacements.

As expected for a bike this age, there are various small scratches, nicks, and defects present.

 

Originally sold new by Mac's Marine in Chippewa Falls, WI.

 

Bike is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early.

Reasonable reserve set.

Deposit required within 48 hours of auction end. Balance can be paid at time of pickup.

Schwantz and Mackenzie on the Nurburgring box

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

A 500GP bike never fails to stop me in my tracks and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this Schwantz example from the early nineties, proudly displayed on the Arai stand at the recent Motorcyclelive show.  On loan from Crescent Suzuki and accompanied by a rostrum publicity shot from the 1990 German GP at the Nurburgring, I felt the urge to write a few words on that special weekend. I started the year running my own 250 GP team with fairly standard TZ Yamahas but was drafted in as Kevin Schwantz’s team mate after Kevin Magee suffered a serious head injury at the second Grand Prix in Laguna Seca.  With no testing and some major Spanish food poisoning I finished 8th at the next round in Jerez then followed that up with a 5th place in Misano. Next up was the Nurburgring and after qualifying on the second row of the grid, my crew chief Geoff Crust informed me he had a premonition of a race day rostrum finish. He also told me I better make it come true as he was already looking forward to a few post race celebratory refreshments. While I hoped Crusty was the new mystic meg, the truth was I would have been more than happy to buy the beers if I made it to the flag inside the top five. I had an outside chance of catching one major scalp as Wayne Rainey was riding with a nasty hand injury but I suspected adrenalin would see him through the day. I also followed Mick Doohan a fair bit in practice but he was beginning to find his feet on the Rothmans Honda so was going to be another problem.  When the lights went out Schwantz and Rainey went straight to the front I while I hung in behind Doohan and Pier Francesco Chilli, and then it happened. Coming out of the bottom right hand hairpin, Doohan and Chilli simultaneously high sided in one of the most spectacular crashes of the season. I never liked seeing any fellow riders crash but I made the most of this early race gift and rode my 160bhp/115kg RGV hard to the flag, claiming my first podium of the season.  We partied hard (win or lose we always did) that night and I went on to have my best ever season finishing fourth overall in the championship. After the last round in Australia, I finished second to Kevin at Sugo in Japan then won in Malaysia at another international race that KS didn’t attend. I also tested at Eastern Creek for the following season but then was flicked from the team for reasons that still remain a mystery. Hey Ho!

American Honda announced it will offer the CBR300R for the 2015 model year. First unveiled at last fall’s CIMAMotor show in China and also appearing at EICMA in Italy, we were hoping the CBR250R replacement would have arrived in the U.S. earlier in the spring.

Honda RCV1000R MotoGP Production Racer Revealed

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

Honda Racing Corporation officially introduced its new RCV1000R production racer which will be sold to racing teams hoping to compete in MotoGP‘s new “Open” prototype class. The RCV1000R is based on Honda’s RC213V factory prototype, with the same chassis and a similar 90° V-4 engine claiming more than 234 hp at 16000 rpm. The key difference is the engine uses traditional spring valves whereas the valves on the RC213V are activated pneumatically.
