Honda Other description

Up for sale is and amazing garage find, a 1982 Ascot FT500, this was a flat trackers dream and is a still sought after bike today. This bike is in wonderful shape and is all there, it was involved in a minor argument with a post and has been fixed to be back to normal once again. Here is a little info on the Ascot,

The FT500 Ascot was named after the famous California dirt track. The engine is a modified version of the XR500 unit; a single cylinder with balancing shafts, automatic cam chain tensioner, CDI ignition, CV carburetor and electric start. The Ascot utilizes an integrated tank, seat and tail section design, has cast aluminum wheels, and disc brakes with dual piston calipers. The Ascot has a 5 speed gearbox and chain final drive. These bikes had to be produced so many years and so many had to be made in order for the flat trackers to run them out on the circle tracks. She is a piece of American flat track history.

So take a look, ask questions and good luck!!!

Making their North American debuts at the 2011 Toronto Motorcycle Show, the naked standard NC700S and the more adventure-touring styled NC700X represent a new product family for Honda, sharing the same frame and 670cc parallel Twin engine with each other and the Honda Integra scooter-motorcycle crossover (speaking of which, there are no plans for the Integra to come to either the U.S.

Thu, 19 Apr 2012

American Honda and Honda Canada haven’t yet officially announced they will import the new Honda CRF250L, but the parent company has outed the dual-sport’s availability in North America. Honda has launched a new micro-site dedicated to the CRF250L describing its features including its CBR250R-derived engine. The section discussing the CRF250L’s muffler explicitly confirms an American and Canadian model, saying: “the model for the United States and Canada complies through additional settings for a spark arrestor.” The section on the CRF250L’s engine also confirms the dual-sport will be CARB-compliant, stating: “the power unit for the U.S.
