Honda CB description

1975 Honda Cb 550, This is truly a one of a kind 1975 Honda CB550k cafe racer. Every part on this bike was carefully selected to try to invoke that classic cafe racer look. The tank was hammered by hand to put in the knee inserts and front dimples. The bump-stop seat is hand laid fiberglass that is a one off part custom made for this project. The seat also serves to hide the battery stored underneath. The old side covers have been removed and the frame de-tabbed. The electronics have been relocated to underneath the seat leaving the triangle area more open. Other notable changes are clubman bars, K&N style pod air filters, brand new but subtle turn signal/horn/headlight switch and on-off/kill switch, LED rear brake light. As for the normal things that a buyer needs to know. This is NOT a project bike. Come on over, crank it up, and away you go! Tires are brand new (less than 100 miles) Avon Roadmasters. New brake pads front and rear. Brakes work great. Engine starts and runs like a dream. Engine does NOT leak oil! The carbs have recently been removed and completely rebuilt and synched. They are properly jetted to accommodate the more open exhaust and pod filters. The kick start and push button start are both fully functional. All of the rest of the electronics are fully functional i.e. horn, headlight, brakes, dummy lights. The 3,000 mile service procedure was just done. I'm sure that I've forgotten some pertinent info so if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me anytime and I will respond in a timely manner. $2,900.00 8649771282

Maverick Vinales Quits Blusens Avintia Moto3 Team

Fri, 19 Oct 2012

Maverick Vinales seems to be living up to his name, announcing he is leaving the Blusens Avintia team despite sitting second in the Moto3 World Championship with three rounds to go. Vinales traveled with the team to Sepang for the upcoming Malaysian Grand Prix but did not take part in Free Practice and later announced the split. You may remember Vinales from last season when he raced in the former 125cc Grand Prix World Championship for the Paris Hilton-sponsored Blusens-BQR team.

USA Four Corners Tour Tracked On Google Earth

Tue, 21 May 2013

Ain’t technology amazing? In 2010, Bill Royal and his friend Larry, both members of the Iron Butt Association, decided to take part in the USA Four Corners Tour, sanctioned by the Southern California Motorcycling Association. He logged the trip on his GPS and later uploaded it to Google Earth.

A Weighty Issue

Mon, 03 Nov 2008

For as long as I can remember, motorcycle manufacturers have been playing fast and loose with regard to what they claim for the weight of their bikes. The “dry weights” they foisted upon us had little basis in reality. The “dry” part of that claim meant that listed weights on a spec chart were the result of all fluids being MIA from the bike, including necessities like engine oil, coolant and fork fluid (not to mention fuel), but even that didn’t fully explain the overly optimistic specs.
