Honda CB description

 Had a $1200 service by Honda before being parked several years ago THEN I purchased it and performed the following work:

New MAC 4 into 2 exhaust (like stock)

New CR smoothbore carbs w/ NOS intake manifolds (absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to find for an A) including remote idle screw adjustment for warming up.

NOS King/Queen seat

New battery

Took apart, detailed, polished and waxed everything as you can see bike is nearly immaculate original condition DID square shoulder type rims w/no corrosion, tank is perfect inside and out, bikes starts immediately and sounds AWESOME!

NOTES: Bike has original 1977 dealer installed options as follows; VETTER Windjammer in perfect condition, pockets are intact no rot, fiberglass perfect windscreen clear, and have ORIGINAL VETTER MANUAL; luggage rack and adjustable backrest with HONDA on it, slides forward for driver without passenger; highway bar with pegs; locking cruise control, SHOE fiberglass saddlebags in good restorable condition.

What does it need: All turn signals work but blink fast probably needs heavier flasher, Seat needs 1 or 2 screws tapped into metal pan for stock hinge installation I just hadn't gotten around to it, and the carbs need the needles raised for more mid range, it runs GREAT but there is a significant flat spot mid range.

XTRAS Included: Chilton Manual; Cover; Baffels (they are out now); new shocks (the stock ones work fine still); upper shock nuts stock ones are a little rusty; extra smaller and larger jets for the smoothbores for your tinkering pleasure; new front brake shoes just in case; stock seat in perfect condition soft and pliable not stiff, no cracks; stock tool kit and kicker pedal; and saddlebags. *Stock carbs (supposedly rebuild but were gummed up when I got it) and airbox with new filter is included in case you want to take the smoothbores off.

Moriwaki MD250 - the stink wheel eradicator

Tue, 31 Aug 2010

This beautiful motorcycle is the Moriwaki MD250 road racer, the replacement for 125cc two-strokes in MotoGP come 2012. The alloy beam chassis houses Honda’s diminutive CRF250X uni-cam motor, normally seen wearing long travel suspension and knobbly tyres. The quick revving liquid cooled four-stroke motor offers electric-start convenience and a maintenance schedule that most two-stroke racers can only dream of.

Top box trauma

Wed, 24 Nov 2010

I've struggled with my Honda hard luggage over the past few months, I have to admit. To much office hilarity (and piss taking) I managed to lose the top box just a few miles from the office. I thought the locating mechanism was fastened securely but the first rapid getaway from the first set of traffic lights on Upper Street proved me wrong.It was at least a mile before I noticed that my top box was absent.
