Honda CB description

Up for auction is my 1972 Honda cb 750 chopper. The bike is completely custom with a hand built hardtail frame and custom tig welded stainless forward controls. The motor, rear hub/sprocket, and forks are the only parts used from the original bike along with the title. As you can see, the bike has extended fork tubes. The rear hub is mated to a chrome 16" wheel/tire. I had a custom front axle machined to accept a 21" mini-drum Harley wheel. The tires are like new. The bike has a professional candy apple red paint job. It has a nick or two from being ridden.  

The bike runs awesome. Carburetors are tuned great and have no problems. It has the best digital ignition the you can buy from CycleX that has 4 different timing curves that you can switch between. It runs flawlessly with zero hesitation. It has electric and kick start, both work well. 

I don't know of anything the bike needs except to be driven more. It runs straight as an arrow down the road. I had it out only twice this year so apparently I don't need it very bad. 

Any questions? Call or text 573-535-8675.  The pictures I took don't do this bike justice.  It's an awesome bike that has a lot of custom fabrication you will not find on another bike.  

Feel free to come look at the bike.  No warranties expressed or implied.  By bidding, you are entering into a binding and legal contract and are expected to follow through.  I can help deliver within 200 miles at a small fee to cover fuel.  Bike will be paid in full before leaving my place.  Bike is for sale locally and the auction may end early if it sells.  Thanks.

Buying countless tatty bikes. And that Marquez fella

Fri, 10 May 2013

A South African friend of mine called Trevor Binder told me last weekend I’m quite obviously in the advanced stages of a terrible disease. He recognises the affliction because he admits to suffering from the same condition for many years and so far hasn’t found a cure.  He says he can’t stop collecting bikes and while I didn’t think I had a problem, last weekend he pointed out I should be careful as I’m starting to acquire bikes at an alarming rate. I wasn’t really worried about spending a modest amount of cash an old KTM 125 race bike, a 350 LC and a Fizzy over the past six months but Trevor says I’m on a slippery slope.  He says it always starts with bikes that have some sentimental value but then swiftly moves on to buying any old tat.  Trevor is a wealthy man with dozens of nice bikes in his collection but more recently has been on Gumtree bidding for £150 Solex front wheel drive step - thrus, and doesn’t know why.  Closer to home, James Whitham has recently confirmed he may also have these symptoms and is actively seeking therapy.  I’ll be monitoring the situation from now on but in the meantime if anyone hears of a reasonably priced Raleigh Wisp for sale please let me know.

Magneti Marelli to Supply Electronics System to MotoGP Teams

Wed, 26 Sep 2012

It’s no secret that promoter Dorna Motorsports has been trying to push a standardized electronics control unit for teams in the MotoGP World Championship. The lack of a top-tier electronics package has been one of the biggest challenges faced by MotoGP’s claiming rule teams, and a spec ECU would narrow the gap between the CRT bikes and the factory prototypes. The manufacturers competing in the series, Honda, Ducati and Yamaha, understandably are resistant to the idea considering the effort they’ve put in to develop their electronics systems.
