Honda CB description

1975 Honda Cb 550, This is truly a one of a kind 1975 Honda CB550k cafe racer. Every part on this bike was carefully selected to try to invoke that classic cafe racer look. The tank was hammered by hand to put in the knee inserts and front dimples. The bump-stop seat is hand laid fiberglass that is a one off part custom made for this project. The seat also serves to hide the battery stored underneath. The old side covers have been removed and the frame de-tabbed. The electronics have been relocated to underneath the seat leaving the triangle area more open. Other notable changes are clubman bars, K&N style pod air filters, brand new but subtle turn signal/horn/headlight switch and on-off/kill switch, LED rear brake light. As for the normal things that a buyer needs to know. This is NOT a project bike. Come on over, crank it up, and away you go! Tires are brand new (less than 100 miles) Avon Roadmasters. New brake pads front and rear. Brakes work great. Engine starts and runs like a dream. Engine does NOT leak oil! The carbs have recently been removed and completely rebuilt and synched. They are properly jetted to accommodate the more open exhaust and pod filters. The kick start and push button start are both fully functional. All of the rest of the electronics are fully functional i.e. horn, headlight, brakes, dummy lights. The 3,000 mile service procedure was just done. I'm sure that I've forgotten some pertinent info so if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me anytime and I will respond in a timely manner. $2,900.00 8649771282

Honda And Repsol Celebrate 20 Years Together

Mon, 10 Feb 2014

If we were to play a game of word association, the mention of “Repsol” would automatically trigger “Honda” from the audience, or at least anyone who pays the slightest bit of attention to Grand Prix racing. That’s because the two companies have achieved much success in this, their 20th year as partners. The longest running partnership between sponsor and manufacturer in the history of the Motorcycle World Championship, Repsol Honda has won 10 World titles, 124 race wins and 338 podiums in 500cc and MotoGP.

Honda announced a hardcore version of the Africa Twin

Thu, 09 Mar 2017

At the Motodays show in Rome, Honda announced a hardcore version of the Africa Twin, featuring Dakar styling, technical innovations and a price tag that surpasses the exterior of the motorcycle in severity. The Italian division of Honda has comprehensively modified the CRF1000L, giving it the dashing style of an experimental vehicle along the way. There is a pretty good attempt to endow the motorcycle with the features of a Dakar monster.

Things I wouldn't like to race: Part 1

Mon, 25 Jul 2011

Now I know that Mike Hailwood raced a 6-cylinder Honda but that's no excuse for this CBX I spotted at the Bikers Days Spa Classic. The 1047cc, inline 6 cylinder, 24 Valve, DOHC Honda might be a feat of engineering brilliance but it looks like it would be a right handful on track. I've added a picture of an oil tanker to give you an idea of just how long the CBX's wheelbase really is.
