Honda CH150D description

Due to losing dry storage space, we're looking to find our Elite a new home. We acquired this bike about three years ago with about 1300 miles. We have always considered this example to be an extremely reliable daily rider. During our ownership, we have replaced several maintenance items and have upgraded several components to improve performance and overall reliability. These items include:

-New Bridgestone MOLAS-9 Tires (3.5-10)

-New brake shoes, front and rear

-Upgraded to CH250 carburetor with the appropriate jetting

-UNI pod filter

-Governor removed from exhaust

-New clutch assembly

-Racing variator, drive face

-Dr. Pulley slider weights

With the upgrades, top speed has increased by over 10mph. Highway acceleration and pull is more than adequate. However, I wouldn't recommend prolonged highway use, as the braking system overheats quickly while at speed. Otherwise, drivability is for the most part, unchanged. Aside from what's listed above, the bike is original and unchanged.

We're not in a huge hurry to move this bike on, so we don't mind waiting for the right buyer. The scooter is also listed locally, so we reserve the right to terminate the auction prior to ending. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. More pictures are always available upon request. Thanks for looking and happy bidding!

Jefferies' TT V&M R1 for sale

Tue, 26 Apr 2011

We got a tip-off about a former David Jefferies TT R1 for sale on eBay. The owner says it's from the 1998 TT but I'm pretty sure it was the one he raced in 1999. Here's a little bit more background about the V&M TT effort in 1999: In 1990 Jack Valentine gave up racing to concentrate on running V&M Racing, and after being sacked by Honda at the end of the 1998 season, the team set about to do some giant killing.

Guinness World Records has officially recognized the Barber Motorsports Museum as the world’s largest motorcycle museum in the world. The 144,000-square-foot, five-story museum is home to nearly 1400 motorcycles, of which about 700 are on exhibit. We’ve featured the Barber Museum before, and are completely blown away each time we step foot within its doors. It’s simply awe-inspiring.

Hero Moto Unveils Leap Hybrid Scooter Concept, Claims 235 MPG

Fri, 06 Jan 2012

Indian manufacturer and former Honda partner Hero MotoCorp has unveiled a new hybrid scooter prototype at the 2012 Auto Expo in New Delhi. The Hero Leap runs on a series hybrid powertrain with the battery-powered electric motor providing most of the power and the gasoline engine acting as a range extender, charging the battery and supplying power when the battery runs low. Hero claims fuel economy of up to 100 km/l, which translates to an eye-popping 235 mpg.
