Honda Other description

Up for auction is a 1976 Honda MR175 with additional parts. I accompanied the original owner of this motorcycle to the House of Honda in 1976 when his dad purchased this bike for him. We had lots of fun riding this motorcycle through the woods near his home for a few years, after which it sat in his garage for over 20 years. I purchased the bike from the original owner around 1998 and had to clean out the fuel system, carburetor and gas tank to get it running again. My son used the bike for a few years and it sat again in my garage from 2010 until a few months ago. Unfortunately, the fuel went bad and I had to clean out the carburetor and tank again. The bike runs great, but I did put a different used gas tank on it to get it running quicker. The bike runs just like I always remember it running. Starts up with a kick or two on the kick starter. Please note the tires are original and should be replaced. Lights work, however the speedometer is missing the bulb for illumination. Click link below to see a video of the bike running after a cold start.

This auction also includes the following additional items for the bike, which are shown in the photos.

  • New Old Stock Speedometer
  • New Old Stock Front and Rear Fender
  • New Old Stock Headlight/Taillight Handlebar Switch
  • Additional Fuel Tank (that came on the bike when new)

Please note that the photo of the inside of the fuel tank is the fuel tank currently on the bike and not of the spare fuel tank that came with the bike when new. The outside of the spare fuel tank is in much better condition than the outside of the fuel tank on the bike. The inside of the spare tank was coated at one time, but would need to be re-coated to be usable due to surface rust.

I do not have any paperwork for the bike except the owners manual. This sale will include a "bill of sale only".  Please do not bid if you do not have the funds to make a purchase. A non refundable deposit of $200 is required via Pay Pal within 48 hours of the auction closing. Buyer is responsible for arranging and payment of shipping. Local pickup only. Please email me with any questions. Thanks and happy bidding.... Anthony

Honda Zoomer X Prototype – New Ruckus Concept Revealed in Thailand

Wed, 28 Mar 2012

Honda Thailand unveiled a new prototype at the 2012 Bangkok International Motor Show showcasing the next generation of the Ruckus scooter. Known as the Zoomer in other markets, the Honda Ruckus is probably best known for its non-traditional scooter styling, with the usual tiny tires and wasp-like body replaced by a fat rubbers and exposed tube frame. The Honda Zoomer X maintains the original’s rugged-looking tires but instead of the exposed tubes, the Zoomer X has a boxy-looking structure, though like the original the space under the seat is exposed to the elements, so if you want to store something there you might have to break out the bungee cords.

A Lap of the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course with John McGuinness – Video

Tue, 26 Jun 2012

The Isle of Man TT is a very special event. Once the most prestigious motorcycle event in the world, the TT requires a certain type of character to ride superbikes at an average speed of over 130 mph through the quaint villages and over the rolling hills of the 37.73-mile Mountain Course. But don’t take my word for it, take the word of 19-time TT winner John McGuinness.
