Honda CB description

I bought this bike 3 years ago and never ride it.  When I bought it it had no battery, a rusted gas tank and bad tires.   I replaced the battery and tires and coated the tank.   I then did a slow motion drop of the bike and broke the clutch.  It created a small hole in the already shaky gas tank and some other small damage all of them.   The clutch was replaced by the vintage bike shop.  I believe with OM part.   The tank with OM part I found on eBay.  The bike broke down again.  
I then had a total engine rebuild and never ended up riding it.   Since the rebuild 2 years ago, it has been sitting in my garage on a trickle charger.  Every couple of months, I take it up and down the block.   There may be a small oil leak.  I am not sure.   It starts easily.  Shifting is a little slippery but I am a brand new rider.   Once it s ridden consistently, other issues may arise.   This is an old bike and would be great for someone that wants to work on it.   It has a great color   I don't know anything about previous owners and if they reset the odometer. I never did.   The mufflers have some rust and skid marks shown in photos that look like an accident from previous owners.   The wheel rims have rust and a spot with peeling.   Some of rubber is tearing on pedals. Obviously the kick stand is not original.
I bought the mirrors and they are not OM parts.  It is missing the badge logo.
This is as is with no returns.  I have been honest with everything I know.   I kept all my repair paperwork.  It appears greek to my non mechanical eyes.   Feel free to ask any questions

Honda Announces CBR400R, CB400F and 400X for Japan

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

Honda confirmed it will produce a 399cc version of its new 500-series motorcycles for the Japanese market. The Honda CBR400R, CB400F and 400X will be offered in Japan instead of their respective 500 versions, as they are a better fit to the country’s tiered licensing system than the CBR500R, CB500F and CB500X. The new 400 models should come as no surprise after Honda announced in February it would produce a smaller version of the 471cc engine used in the 500 series.

Nissin ABS Modulator Recall Explained in NHTSA Documents

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Earlier this month, we published news about an issue with certain Nissin anti-lock brake system modulators that have been connected to recalls in Canada and Japan from Honda, Suzuki and Kawasaki, with the possibility of it expanding to further models and manufacturers using the same component. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has now released documents from American Honda’s recall of ABS-equipped CTX700 and CTX700N that shed some more light into the issue. According to the documentation, a manufacturing error may have resulted in Nissin ABS modulators being contaminated with aluminum chips.

Would you pay £115,000 for this?

Mon, 25 Oct 2010

A HONDA NR750 - one of the most hi-tech production motorcycles ever built - is up for grabs on eBay with an asking price of £115,000.The bike was produced in the early 1990s by Honda to showcase the company's engineering skills; a 32-valve, oval piston V4 engine, Carbon Fibre Composite bodywork and titanium-tinted screen are just some of the revolutionary features that warranted the bike's £37,000 original price tag.This particular 1993 model has covered 5000 miles from new - quite a few for a bike with such a heady price tag. We'd have expected it to come with delivery mileage only. It's being sold by an Essex-based dealer who describes the bike as 'IMMACULATE'.
