Honda Other description

All original bike.  Sat for 7 yrs, recently got it running, but it needs the carburetor set up as it runs rich and smokes.  Clutch, tranny, brakes are fine. headlight works. Horn does not and turn signals at least three work, 4th might need bulb. Has new battery, new plug. Gas in the tank is clean, new oil.  I planned on restoring, but it has back fees due with CA DMV.  It needs to be sold out of CA or used for parts as the back fees are over $500 for not filing a non-opp for 7 years.  This wont effect other states registration.  I have the title in hand.   We can figure out shipping.  I think $150-200 will get it to most places. Weighs about 350 lbs.  Kick start. Metal tank.  
I'll try to add a video of it running

Looking after number 1

Fri, 06 Jan 2012

There was a time when a rider’s number indicated his position from the previous season, with the ultimate accolade being the number 1 emblazoned on the front of the champion's bike. The rise of branding in MotoGP and a rider wanting to market themselves, born from Barry Sheene and his retention of no.7, saw riders decide against displaying their finish from the year before. Rossi, who on winning his numerous championships, stuck with his famous #46 in defence of his titles, instead of stamping a great number 1 on his bikes.

GSX-R600 and CBR250R the glass is half full

Wed, 13 Oct 2010

Suzuki’s GSX-R600 might not look that much different to the outgoing model but I suspect this bike could be very much a dark horse in 2011. I say this because two years ago I was definitely not building my hopes up en route to the K9 GSXR 1000 launch. The leaked pictures suggested the biggest change from the 2007 version would be some fresh graphics but I was so wrong.  As it turned out, I was greeted in Almeria with a brand new bike, built from the tarmac up and it proved to be more than a match in every department for the much hyped 2009 Yamaha R1.
