Honda CB description

11th st at Spring Garden For sale, 1979 DUAL OVERHEAD CAM Honda CB 750F (Super Sport). I bought it last year as the 3rd owner and it had 18,000 mis on the clock (I still have the speedo). It was a runner and was in fine shape when I bought it. I rode it all summer/fall and then performed a frame off resto on it. I had the frame sandblasted and re painted, I rebuilt the top half of the motor, I re did the electrics to open up the frame, and stripped and painted the tank. This bike is tagged antique and doesn't need to be inspected, ever. So you don't need to worry about it passing inspection with no turn signals, etc. Working from front to back to the best of my recollection here's what I've done to it:Bobbed front fender (painted)New Fork gaiters Custom headlamp bucket (oil pressure and neutral lamps inset) with custom bucket ears. Aftermarket front brake master cylinder off a Suzuki TL 1100Aftermarket grips, throttle assy, and Moto Gp shorty clutch leverTurn signal/horn/speedo/tach/ignition key were all removedCB 600 FF high output coils and iridium spark plugsThis bike starts on switches, 1 for accessory on and the other for start, no key.

Gresini Unveils 2012 MotoGP and Moto3 Honda Race Bikes

Tue, 13 Mar 2012

Last season, Alvaro Bautista rode on one of the best looking motorcycles on the MotoGP grid, the Suzuki GSV-R in Rizla powder blue livery by Troy Lee Designs. This season, Bautista is riding the Gresini Honda RC213V, but instead of its previous white paint job, the Gresini machine is in a sleek black. No reason for the color change was announced, though it’s possible the choice is a sign of mourning for the late Marco Simoncelli whose place Bautista is assuming with Gresini.

Coma’s performance in today’s stage moved him to only 3:10 behind overall leader Joan Barreda.

2014 Honda CTX700 Recalled in Canada for ABS Issue

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Transport Canada announced a recall for the new Honda CTX700 because of a manufacturing error in its anti-lock braking system. The Canadian recall applies to both the CTX700N and the partially-faired CTX700T (known simply as the Honda CTX700 in the U.S. market and other markets.) According to the recall notice, the ABS modulator may have been manufactured incorrectly and could potentially fail, allowing the front and/or rear wheels to lock up under heavy braking, increasing the risk of a crash.
