Honda CBX description

One of a kind custom CBX. This bike was built for me several years ago by TIM's CBX. Polished single sided swing-arm from Honda Hawk GT, Ohlin's shock, Honda VFR forks with Race Tech Gold Valves and springs, Custom Honda VTR yellow paint. Silver powder coated frame. The motor is a 1981 school bike motor with just over 1000miles precision re-built by Preston Marks - big bore, ported polished head, Falicon knife rods, '79 cams, CR race carbs and Earls oil cooler. All covers chromed or polished. Lots of other details like Harley bullet signal lights, Fat superbike bar and lots of upgrade parts from TIM's catalog like ignition/starter/alternator.


Also selling with the bike as a package as is another complete 1981 zero mile "school bike" motor plus a perfect NOS fuel tank with cap and badges, an NOS rear cowl from 1980 and an NOS seat, all like new. I don't want to part with the extras separately as if I don't sell the bike, would keep the parts.

This was a very expensive build and with the extra motor and NOS parts, quite the deal for a CBX fan.
(for those wondering about the serial number, it is an "Alberta Assigned VIN" for Alberta, Canada as the original VIN tag was removed during built and powder coat and was only stuck back on, not glued and came off on a ride. This is a service offered in several provinces and is quite the process as all the paperwork has to be in order which it was and is.)

2013 Honda CRF250L Dual-Sport Officially Announced for US

Tue, 29 May 2012

As expected, Honda has officially announced it will introduce its new CRF250L to the U.S., offering it as a 2013 model for $4,499. The 2013 Honda CRF250L is powered by a liquid-cooled fuel-injected 249cc Single inherited from the CBR250R, so it carries the same low-friction innovations such as the roller rocker arm design. Like the CBR, the CRF250L is produced in Thailand, helping keep costs low.

Honda announced a hardcore version of the Africa Twin

Thu, 09 Mar 2017

At the Motodays show in Rome, Honda announced a hardcore version of the Africa Twin, featuring Dakar styling, technical innovations and a price tag that surpasses the exterior of the motorcycle in severity. The Italian division of Honda has comprehensively modified the CRF1000L, giving it the dashing style of an experimental vehicle along the way. There is a pretty good attempt to endow the motorcycle with the features of a Dakar monster.

Used: MOTOTENT by Lone Rider

Mon, 12 Aug 2013

Since wild camping in the UK is generally regarded as trespassing, I opted for a crowded campsite in the heart of Sussex, open fires allowed, to see if the MOTOTENT is worth the £399 price tag. On the face of it the MOTOTENT is essentially a two man dome tent with a porch, Well I can pick up one of those up from Argos for £100 or less. Also I was struggling to understand why you would buy a tent that you can sleep in and store your bike in overnight, certainly in the UK most places you are likely to stay are fairly secure campsites.
