Honda CB description

I completely rebuilt, restored this CB750. I have restored over 50 Hondas in the last 20 years. I am at the point now where I strive for perfection. I go through every piece and part, buffing, painting, polishing, or whatever it takes to make the part look as new. if I can't succeed I replace the part with whenever possible a genuine Honda part. I bought this bike 17 years ago, and it has been kept in a controlled temperature storage. This bike has no rust. When I bought this bike I ordered from Honda and received a new double seat and complete tail piece painted with moldings and emblem, new handlebars, new tank and side cover gold emblems, mirrors, grips, carb insulators, and air cleaner tubes, brake hoses, complete new rear brake master cylinder assembly, muffler assembly, points cover, and any other Honda parts plus battery, tires, fork seals, carb kits, air filter, clutch cable, and much more. I used Honda bolts, screws, nuts, and washers. I used a total of over 80 part numbers on this bike. The tank and side covers were painted professionally at a new car franchise body shop in Candy Presto Red. The engine received major work including an 810cc kit, 8 NOS Honda F2 Intake and exhaust valves, and a new out of the wrapping NOS CB750 F2 camshaft. These are very pricey parts. The valves were matched to the seats by a rare left standing 70 year old engine rebuilding shop locally. They polished the header and ports and carefully magnafluxed for any possible cracks or imperfections. The valve springs and retainers are high quality after market. The complete engine was assembled by a 65 year old mechanic that has spent his whole life working at a Honda dealership and now for many years his own shop. Everything works as it should and it seems to have lots of power as it is just being broken in and has not been pounded on. Inside tank is as new. I wanted to make this bike a little extra special so I had many miscellaneous part triple chrome plated as you can see in the pictures such as engine mounting, bolts, and brackets, chain guard, complete exhaust header pipe assembly, clutch cover and housing, kick starter, rider and passenger brackets, and springs, and much more. This bike is a rare show winner and has more overall appeal and performance than when they were new. The owners manual and tool kits are as new. Any questions you are welcome to call me at 309-253-2180. The front master cylinder and all three wheel cylinders were all overhauled using genuine Honda parts. The carbs were all cleaned and overhauled along with all other adjustments including valves, points, timing, and timing chain.

CARB Certifies 2015 Honda NC700X – Still No 750 Engine in Sight

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

American consumers hoping Honda would replace its NC700X with the larger-displacement NC750X will be disappointed to know they might have to wait until the 2016 model year to get the 75cc engine upgrade. The California Air Resources Board has granted an executive for the 2015 Honda NC700X, certifying the motorcycle for sale in the state with the same 670cc engine displacement it had since being introduced in the 2012 model year. Now, this doesn’t mean Honda won’t decide to certify the 745cc engine after all; manufacturers resubmit and recertify models all the time, often replacing models are adding additional model using the same engine.

Pulling the pin ...

Mon, 15 Nov 2010

WARNING: Not for the squeamish. You're looking at surgeons removing a pin from Ten Kate Honda man Jonathan Rea's wrist. The World Superbike frontrunner underwent surgery after sustaining fractures during a fall in qualifying at Imola, which hampered the Irish racer's end of season performance.

2012 Honda NC700X and NC700S Debut in Canada – MSRP Expected to be “Under $9000″ [Video]

Sat, 10 Dec 2011

There are no plans yet to bring either model to the U.S., but Honda is bringing its new NC700S and NC700X models to Canada for the summer of 2012. American Honda will however, likely be keeping a close eye on how the new models do with its northern neighbor (or perhaps “neighbour”) before deciding whether to import the NC700 models stateside. Making their North American debuts at the 2011 Toronto Motorcycle Show, the naked standard NC700S and the more adventure-touring styled NC700X represent a new product family for Honda, sharing the same frame and 670cc parallel Twin engine with each other and the Honda Integra scooter-motorcycle crossover (speaking of which, there are no plans for the Integra to come to either the U.S.
