Honda CB description
1975 Honda Cb 550, This is truly a one of a kind 1975 Honda CB550k cafe racer. Every part on this bike was carefully selected to try to invoke that classic cafe racer look. The tank was hammered by hand to put in the knee inserts and front dimples. The bump-stop seat is hand laid fiberglass that is a one off part custom made for this project. The seat also serves to hide the battery stored underneath. The old side covers have been removed and the frame de-tabbed. The electronics have been relocated to underneath the seat leaving the triangle area more open. Other notable changes are clubman bars, K&N style pod air filters, brand new but subtle turn signal/horn/headlight switch and on-off/kill switch, LED rear brake light. As for the normal things that a buyer needs to know. This is NOT a project bike. Come on over, crank it up, and away you go! Tires are brand new (less than 100 miles) Avon Roadmasters. New brake pads front and rear. Brakes work great. Engine starts and runs like a dream. Engine does NOT leak oil! The carbs have recently been removed and completely rebuilt and synched. They are properly jetted to accommodate the more open exhaust and pod filters. The kick start and push button start are both fully functional. All of the rest of the electronics are fully functional i.e. horn, headlight, brakes, dummy lights. The 3,000 mile service procedure was just done. I'm sure that I've forgotten some pertinent info so if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me anytime and I will respond in a timely manner. $2,900.00 8649771282

Video: Honda Crossrunner v mountain pass
Fri, 01 Apr 2011This road (the one in the video) was a previously unseen, super-steep mountain pass which needed first gear for the hairpins and second between them with an occasional grab at third on the quicker sections. It was the sort of road that pumps up your forearms and makes you crane your neck to see what's coming next (mainly cyclists). The surface was rubbish.
2013 AIMExpo: Parts For Scooters Customs – Video

If you’re happiest tinkering on a low-displacement scooter, the Parts For Scooters booth at AIMExpo is the place you want to be.
No snow here folks!
Fri, 31 Dec 2010An erratic work schedule combined with a full season of kids racing means, there aren’t many opportunities during the summer months for the Mackenzie family to grab a holiday. Instead, we tend to save our pennies and head off somewhere sunny for Christmas. I love doing this as it shortens the UK winter but more importantly it means I miss the festive frenzy. I do like Christmas, but I hate how everyone gets caught up in the retail madness that kicks off just before Halloween, then has everyone stressed (and skint)before Santa has even hitched up his sleigh.
