Honda CA description

This classic little scooter was left in Aunt Nina's shed, high and dry, out on the back hill, for many years. Most of it was there, and in fairly good condition.

So...  we spent a lot of time and money getting it back to looking good, and running great. Had lots of fun, rode it a few times. Took a 2nd place, Antique Class, at the York PA, White Rose Thunder Bike Show, 2014. The cylinder was honed and a new piston & ring installed. The new carbs that you can buy on ebay, that are supposed to fit these bikes, don't. Not on these early models. So the original was rebuilt, using some parts from the new carb. The choke and fuel shut off are original and work fine.

The front fender and knee guard are re-pops. Plastic. Very hard to keep paint on the front fender. Done twice, it is starting to lift again at the lower base.
The knee guard has cracked at the top just above the chrome air intake box. 

Handlebar grips are original as is the kicker rubber. Footrest rubbers are replacements. Original turn signal lenses, cracked. I don't think these were ever functional.
Nice new chrome exhaust pipe and muffler on it now. Two new tires. Front rim is new, rear one is original with some rust spots., Spokes look pretty good. Brakes work well.

The rear shocks have been replaced and the seat has a nice new "Honda" logo seat cover. The seat pan is an original blue one. Odometer shows 2329 miles. 
I never looked down to see if it still works. 

As you know, there are not a lot of these, Nifty, Thrifty, Honda 50's, still around in good running condition. 
If you like this one, check our feedback & bid with confidence.
If necessary, AFTER the scooter is paid for, I will help with shipping, you make arrangements. OR, I can put it in my van and deliver it for $1 per mile.
Thanks for looking.  I'm working on the photos.

I'm buying a Honda SH300i scooter

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

I want to buy a second bike to get across town on the daily commute as I currently ride a 183bhp ZX-10R to work and while it's a peach of a bike, it tempts me into doing bad things on a daily basis. This has to stop. My criteria is fairly simple: I want something that is cheap to buy (close to £2k), cheap to run, frugal on the fuel, easy to ride, nimble through traffic, dull enough to not get nicked and ABS is a deal-maker.

Mystic Mac's 2014 MotoGP predictions

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

There is no real off season in Moto GP.  Although we complain about being starved of racing, for those at the sharp end, in little more than two months they have new bikes to assemble, team staff to put in place and sponsors to nail down that will pay for it all.  This time frame is also tight for riders, as it seems more every year go straight under the surgeon’s knife after the last round and spend the short winter recuperating for the season ahead. The 2014 Moto GP championship looks like a cracker as apart from the ten full factory riders we now have at least eight non factory riders with properly competitive machinery.  We also have five Brits on the grid, two with podium potential.  Whatever happens though (providing you have BT Sport) you can just sit back and enjoy watching the incredible Marc Marquez do things that shouldn’t be possible. Speaking of whom, I didn’t believe a Rossi replacement would come this soon.  And when I say replacement, I mean a rider that is the full package.  Although in some ways quite different to Vale, he’s an equally phenomenal talent plus a very likeable character that appeals to the masses and although respectful to his rivals off track, deadly competitive in the heat of battle.  Being young and good looking he’s obviously a dream for sponsors and the sport in general.  Marquez has evolved in his own way but thankfully into a perfect replacement for our sport when the VR steps down.

The championship comes in Yamaha‘s return from a one-year absence from the series.
