Honda CB description

Bought this as a package of stuff from an old guy cleaning out his garage. He said he bought it 12 years ago and couldn't get it running and he got it from his son-in-law before that and had been sitting a long time when he got it. I merely cleaned the carbs and put some gas in it and fired it up on the first hit. Tires might be the originals. They are old. Clear Ohio title.

This bike has low miles, starts very quickly, runs very smoothly, and shift through the gears easily. That has been the extent of my testing. I'm not a mechanic and my wife wants it gone. However, plan on this needing a going over by a qualified person before being 100% road ready. It seems to be all there. The gas tank and the seat need to be fastened down. Not sure if I have the bolts. Does not come with a battery. 

There are scratches in the paint and fading, dents, and missing right side panel emblem. There is surface rust and pitting on the frame and most of the chrome. Doesn't show up well in the pics. The chrome still shines through as it appears. Small 2" seam starting to pull on seat. Seat overall pretty good shape. Does not leak oil or fluids. Front seals may need some attention. They're a little soft but are air shocks so may need some air. This is a historic, vintage machine and thus sold as is. No warranties. No guarantees. No shipping. Must be picked up at my residence or buyer must fully arrange shipping at buyer expense. This is a no reserve auction. Good luck!

Did you get your bike serviced at George White Slough?

Thu, 18 Aug 2011

Unfortunately, The George White branch at Slough has closed which means the sales, clothing and servicing departments are all gone. I got to know a few of the guys there as they're local to me and helped put my 848 Challenge bike together. If you used to get your bike serviced there, you might wonder where you can now go to get it done.

2013 Repsol Honda Team Livery Revealed

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Repsol Honda revealed the livery off its RC213V racebikes and leathers of riders Dani Pedrosa and Marc Marquez for the 2013 MotoGP season. The livery is again dominated by the colors of the team’s top sponsor, Spanish oil giant Repsol, but with more white and less black, particularly along the bottom of the fairing. The Repsol logos on the sides now slope downward toward the swingarm whereas the previous design had them rising up toward the seat.

Tue, 10 Aug 2010

That picture is of John McGuinness' actual 'Guinness Rep' Fireblade. The bike is on show at Lancaster Honda. The 15 times TT winner has been (quite rightly!) given this 'Blade by Honda, but you can order one for yourself.
