Honda Other description

The Honda CM400 was a street bike produced by the Honda Motor Company from 1979 to 1982, part of a series of motorcycles with the prefix 'CM' using various engine capacities. Models included the CM400A (Automatic), CM400C (Custom), CM400E (Economy) and CM400T (Tach). 

The Honda CM series all generally resembled the older-style flat-seat bikes from the 60s and 70s, with the exception of a slightly raised passenger area seat and small plastic fairings for the battery and electrical.

This CM400C was produced only in 1981 making it one of the more rare model types. Some of the differences between this model and others are Standard transmission, Dual caliper front disk brake, comstar wheels, Tachometer, Air assisted forks with drain plug, and the custom quilted style seat.

This bike is in great riding condition for a daily driver, and is good on gas! It runs and sounds smooth with all working electric. A new battery has just been placed on the bike. There are a few spots with paint chipping on side cover and a minor dent in the gas tank, which can be seen in the photos. Only minor signs of surface rust. The tires and quilted seat are in great clean condition. Overall, this is a great RARE bike to be cruising in. 

We encourage and are happy to arrange inspections, we are located in Indianapolis, IN.

McGuinness Tests Mugen Shinden Electric Race Bike

Thu, 22 Mar 2012

Isle of Man TT veteran John McGuinness recently got a chance to test the new Mugen Shinden electric rice bike to prepare for the 2012 TT Zero. The test took place at the Twin Ring Motegi in Japan, a world-class racing circuit but perhaps not-coincidentally, a track built and owned by Honda, further fueling the belief the Mugen effort is a front for the Japanese manufacturer. The Honda-contracted McGuinness put the Shinden through its first big test, helping the Mugen team gather data on the electric racer.

Honda CBR250R top speed run

Sun, 24 Apr 2011

The Cope Law states that: the capacity of the bike you're riding is inversely proportional to your chances of a crash. Never was it more true than on the launch of Honda's CBR125R and CBR250R where a handful of UK journos were riding elbow to elbow for a couple of hours, with laughter flowing from everyone's lid as we all took turns to back in to roundabouts, burnout through town and wheelie from the lights.. This video shows me chasing Trevor Franklin of MCN fame on a top speed run.

Natural Habitats

Sat, 26 Jan 2013

SAM Christmas has been a professional photographer for the last 3 years and is the man behind Natural Habitats, a collection of photos covering the growing UK custom scene, showing bikes and their builders at home.    Sam's clients include the likes of Honda, Dainese, Google, Polo Jeans and Edwin denim but Natural Habitats is a personal project that took one and a half years to complete. I got to meet Sam when the exhibition opened in Shoreditch on Thursday evening.
