Honda CX500C description

For sale is my beloved CX500 Custom, with aesthetic modifications towards a cafe racer/tracker style bike.

Modifications:
Matte black tank and side covers
Matte black exhausts and rims
Daytona handlebars
dual sport rear wheel
new battery
removed front signals
new seat (amateur build)

The parts I've taken off that come with the bike:
Original cx500 custom double seat in great condition
Original handlebars
Front turn signal casings

Problems
The bike has been my primary mode of transport for the past year, inspected and insured in NYS, until last month when the power went out. I think there is a charging problem - it has just had a new battery put in. Runs great after a bump or jump start, electrics all fine and the engine sounding good. Just need to work on the charge problem.
The only other problem to my knowledge is that the brake signal from the handlebar isn't working.

This is a great opportunity for someone to upcycle this bike, either with an original restore or to an even better cafe racer / tracker / bobber. Viewings available. Payment by cash or paypal.

I'm buying a Honda SH300i scooter

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

I want to buy a second bike to get across town on the daily commute as I currently ride a 183bhp ZX-10R to work and while it's a peach of a bike, it tempts me into doing bad things on a daily basis. This has to stop. My criteria is fairly simple: I want something that is cheap to buy (close to £2k), cheap to run, frugal on the fuel, easy to ride, nimble through traffic, dull enough to not get nicked and ABS is a deal-maker.

Schoolboy Heroes

A wet and grey day in Calais in 1992 wouldn’t be the obvious situation for a life changing experience, but for a 11 year old lad on a boring booze cruise from Dover this is exactly what happened. Pockets bulging with funny money I headed to the Tabac for the obligatory bangers, dirty playing cards and some sweets.  Then it happened, I stood in front of the magazine rack and reached up, as if drawn by an external force.  At the time I wasn’t tall enough for Playboy or L’ Escort so settled for a copy of Moto Verte, the French motocross mag.  Life would never be the same again. Inside there was a double page spread, with a fresh faced Jeremy McGrath resting a leg over his #15 Honda CR125.  Sporting a pair of fluro MX trousers with a, now retro, bright white surname emblazoned jersey, and casting an eye over a seriously vast motocross park.  I stared at this Sinisalo advert all the way home, partly because all the articles were in foreign, but also because I was transfixed.  What and how do I become a motocross champion?
