Honda CB description

This is a 1978 CB 750 with only 18,326 miles on it. The bike is like new; the Cafe conversion is not a kit. Handmade Seat, Hand-tooled (Wet Leather, Wooden Mallet knee-slotted tank) New Pipe, Chain, Sprocket, Paint, Shock Service, Total Tune, New Tires, and ALWAYS serviced by Rolf's Motorcycles in Longmont, Colorado. Can verify all numbers, past tune-ups, back to 2004 when I bought it as an all original CB. I decided to have the Cafe Conversion build on it and it came out awesome. It turns heads and lights.  
I took this sweet bike and made it the best Cafe out there. Some details (as in paint on clutch and brake handles, but thats about it) are left on it- but this bike is not only sweet- but the 78 OVHC engine ALONE is a bullet proof power plant is so very smooth and such a good, no problem engine.
Once the build was complete, I found that the bike does not fit me. I am 6'2 and it is just a little small for me. Barring that- I would keep this head and light turner. I love bikes and I love this one. 
Thats pretty much the rundown on the bike and why I am selling it. :)

Rides, Runs and Looks like a Champ. Im gonna miss her.

Honda is recalling over 20,000 Shadows in the US

Fri, 29 Jan 2016

Honda is recalling 22,142 motorcycles from shipments produced between 2010 and 2016. The reason was the vibration from the engine, which over time leads to chafing of the fall sensor wire in the common harness. Dealers promise to move the wire to another location and replace the sensor free of charge.

MotoGP Approves “Factory 2″ Rules

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

We’re just days away from the start of the 2014 MotoGP season and one would think it’s a little late for series organizers to make any significant rule changes. At least, one would think that if one were unfamiliar with the political back-and-forths going on between the major manufacturers and MotoGP promoter Dorna. But with the season-opening Qatar round about to begin, the Grand Prix Commission approved new rules establishing a compromise between the new Factory and Open options.

2014 Honda CTX700 and CTX700N Revealed, the First in a New Series Focused on Comfort, Technology and Experience

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

Honda pulled the covers off a new streetbike series aimed at younger, shorter riders. The Honda CTX700 represents the first in a new series from Honda combining the three tenets of Comfort, Technology and Experience. It’s a platform “specifically engineered to make motorcycling more approachable, affordable and fun than ever before.” Our own Troy Siahaan is at the CTX700 models’ launch in Chicago and will have a full first-hand report next week, but for now here’s a quick look at Honda’s new streetbikes.
