Honda CB description

***1974 Honda CB550 Incredible survivor, unrestored, runs and rides perfect, mild patina***

Folks, rarely will you ever see a bike with the original paint and pipes this clean!  All of the chrome still looks decent but could look  better with some professional chrome polishing.  This bike is in incredible survivor condition and runs better than it looks, seriously!  The pipes are almost perfect and still have the original baffles.  They are in great condition because this bike has been RIDDEN often and well maintained!  This incredible machine runs like a Turbine and sounds so awesome  with the note of those four exhaust creating a symphony for your eardrums, it really is exhilarating to drive!  I have all of the original turn signals to go back on the bike and will package them up and send them with the bike of you want them.  The previous owner installed smaller turn signals and they look great so I left them on.

Take a look at the original paint, the pipes, the plush seat, the new tires, and soak up the fact that it could be yours for Christmas.  The Boss Maroon Metallic bikes are VERY hard to find as most people bought the Sunflake Orange version.  I have only ever owned one of these that was cleaner, no actually, that was a CB500.  Again, it does need a little fun-scrubbing here and there but overall this bike is an incredible example of what Honda was making back in the day, just an incredible piece of machinery!  It doesn't really need anything except a rider!  

Call me if you have any questions at 724-866-2571.  My name is Phil

Yamaha Planning Sub-$500 Model to Undercut Honda Dream Yuga

Fri, 25 May 2012

Not long after Honda launched its ultra low-cost Dream Yuga in India, Yamaha announced it is considering a new own model that will be nearly 40% cheaper. The 109cc Dream Yuga is Honda‘s latest weapon in the battle for India’s 13-million unit per year motorcycle market. Priced at 44,642 Indian rupees (US$806), the Dream Yuga is the most affordable Honda model available in India.

A Weighty Issue

Mon, 03 Nov 2008

For as long as I can remember, motorcycle manufacturers have been playing fast and loose with regard to what they claim for the weight of their bikes. The “dry weights” they foisted upon us had little basis in reality. The “dry” part of that claim meant that listed weights on a spec chart were the result of all fluids being MIA from the bike, including necessities like engine oil, coolant and fork fluid (not to mention fuel), but even that didn’t fully explain the overly optimistic specs.
