Honda CB description

For sale is a 1972 Honda cb750 K1. Top end has been rebuilt. New rings, pistons, and gaskets. Cylinders deglazed, and valves have been lapped, holds good compression. Kick and electric start work. Carbs have been stripped and cleaned. I have jet rebuild kits for each carb which will be included. Also bought a complete gasket set, but did not get around to changing all of them. New front brake pads. It has a Dyna Electric Ignition(no points), as well as Dyna coils, new plugs and wires. I can include the old points if you want to be real old school. It has a large dent in the tank, it was like that when I got it. The front headlight has been busted and repair was attempted by the previous owner. I also have the luggage rack and some other various parts for it.
Comes with shop manual. Clean title in my name. I still take it out and put anywhere from 20-50 miles on it a week. Runs good, but it could use the carbs tuned up to get it running great. As you can see from the photos, it shows many signs of wear and use, this thing has been ridden a lot. The millage when I bought it was 36,242, and I have probably put close to 1,500 on it in the year or so I've owned it. Bought it too make a cafe racer out of, but as the story goes I got another bike that now demands more of my attention/money.  Feel free to e-mail me with any questions, and thanks for looking!

Bahrain track days

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

A few months ago, expat (and ex racer) John Beddall made contact to ask if I fancied doing some track day instruction out in Bahrain.  After thinking about it for two seconds, flights were booked and a plan was put in place to look after around forty riders for a day at the Bahrain International Circuit (BIC).  Young Taylor Mac was also recruited to look after any tasty riders that I couldn’t deal with   The Brits out there love their bikes, however, quite a few locals also turned up plus a few others from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Qatar.  Most were on high end Superbikes, like S1000s, Panigales and RSV4s but there was also a healthy number R6s and new 675Rs.   Although this fabulous Hermann Tilke designed circuit is around ten years old incredibly it has never hosted a bike race.  The highlight of the year there is F1 but being owned by the Bahrainian Royal family, there is no desperate need for the circuit to operate as a profitable business.  The track reminded me of Qatar but much more interesting as some great undulations have been built into its desert location. We shared the track with Supercars on the day (20mins on/20mins off) and as you might imagine it was betty swollocks for seven hours in the 30 plus temperatures.  As usual there was a few offs with poor old RS1000 Aprilia mounted Andy breaking his femur early in the day.  Two other buddies appeared to swap bikes mid air in another incident but fortunately escaped unhurt.In the evening everyone stayed for an al fresco dinner in the paddock with the craic going on for hours as the Fosters kept flowing.   All in all it was a brilliant trip and it has left me thinking there could be cost effective ways of getting Brits out there for track days next winter.  I'll keep you posted.Cape Town next to make my racing comeback at the Killarney 8 hour on a CBR150 Honda.  Hopefully I can manage the beast, I'll post a full report next week.

Isle of Man TT 2014: Sure Sidecar TT 2 Results

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

Dave Molyneux won his 17th career TT as he and passenger Patrick Farrance took the second Sidecar race of the 2014 Isle of Man TT. Molyneux is the career leader in Sidecar TT wins and third overall in total Isle of Man TT victories behind Joey Dunlop and John McGuinness. Molyneux and Farrance won the race by a good 44-second margin but they benefited greatly from a mechanical problem plaguing early race leaders John Holden and Andrew Winkle.
