This is a Glass of 55 Consignment Auction. YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 1974 HONDA MR50 TRIBUTE BIKE HONORING THE 1974 & 1975 AMA 125cc NATIONAL MOTOCROSS CHAMPION MARTY SMITH'S 1975 #1 HONDA. THE OWNER PAINSTAKINGLY SOURCED OUT NEW AND N.O.S. PARTS, THEN COMPLETELY TORE DOWN THIS BIKE. THE ENGINE WAS DISSASEMBLED AND NEW BEARINGS, SEALS, GASKETS, AND RINGS WERE INSTALLED AND THEN IT WAS PAINTED. THE CARB WAS CLEANED AND GONE THROUGH. THE FRAME WAS COMPLETELY STRIPPED TO BARE METAL AND THEN POWDER-COATED WITH THE HONDA RED. THE GAS TANK WAS PROFFESIONALLY STRIPPED AND PAINTED HONDA RED. THERE IS NO RUST IN THE TANK AND HAS BEEN COATED WITH MP3 TO COMBAT RUST. THERE HAS BEEN NO FUEL PUT INTO THE TANK SINCE THE BUILD. THE BIKE WAS ASSEMBLED USING STAINLESS FASTNERS THROUGH-OUT. THIS WAS A RUNNING BIKE BEFORE BEING TORN DOWN, BUT HAS NOT HAD FUEL OR BEEN STARTED SINCE THE BUILD. THIS WAS BUILT AS A SHOWROOM/DISPLAY PIECE. IT DOES HAVE SPARK AND IF THE NEW OWNER WANTS TO RUN IT, IT WILL NEED FUEL AND SOME MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO MAKE IT RUN, AS HE HAD IT ON DISPLAY IN HIS HOUSE. THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT MAN-CAVE, GARAGE, OR DEALERSHIP DISPLAY. NOTE: THERE ARE TWO MINOR ISSUES. IT HAS A NEW SEAT COVER THAT COMES WITH IT, BUT HAS NOT BEEN INSTALLED. THE FOOTPEG BAR IS BENT SLIGHTLY ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE. HE DID NOT NOTICE THIS UNTIL IT WAS INSTALLED, BUT HE HAD IT POWDERCOATED AND DID NOT WANT TO BEND IT BACK TO ORIGINAL AND POSSIBLY CRACKING THE COATING. IT IS MINOR.

WSBK 2013: Assen Race Report

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Tom Sykes earned his first win of the 2013 season and came a hair short of a double victory at the World Superbike Championship round at Assen in the Netherlands.

Fri, 06 Jun 2014

Earlier this week, John McGuinness won the single-lap TT Zero electric motorcycle race at the Isle of Man TT aboard his Mugen Shinden San. In the process, the 21-time TT winner smashed the old lap record of 109.675 mph, setting an average speed of 117.366 mph from a standing start. To put that in perspective, McGuinness’ teammate, Bruce Anstey, aboard a sister Mugen, set the outright lap record earlier this week aboard his Honda CBR1000RR superbike of over 132 mph.
