Honda Other description

Up for auction is a 1976 Honda MR175 with additional parts. I accompanied the original owner of this motorcycle to the House of Honda in 1976 when his dad purchased this bike for him. We had lots of fun riding this motorcycle through the woods near his home for a few years, after which it sat in his garage for over 20 years. I purchased the bike from the original owner around 1998 and had to clean out the fuel system, carburetor and gas tank to get it running again. My son used the bike for a few years and it sat again in my garage from 2010 until a few months ago. Unfortunately, the fuel went bad and I had to clean out the carburetor and tank again. The bike runs great, but I did put a different used gas tank on it to get it running quicker. The bike runs just like I always remember it running. Starts up with a kick or two on the kick starter. Please note the tires are original and should be replaced. Lights work, however the speedometer is missing the bulb for illumination. Click link below to see a video of the bike running after a cold start.

This auction also includes the following additional items for the bike, which are shown in the photos.

  • New Old Stock Speedometer
  • New Old Stock Front and Rear Fender
  • New Old Stock Headlight/Taillight Handlebar Switch
  • Additional Fuel Tank (that came on the bike when new)

Please note that the photo of the inside of the fuel tank is the fuel tank currently on the bike and not of the spare fuel tank that came with the bike when new. The outside of the spare fuel tank is in much better condition than the outside of the fuel tank on the bike. The inside of the spare tank was coated at one time, but would need to be re-coated to be usable due to surface rust.

I do not have any paperwork for the bike except the owners manual. This sale will include a "bill of sale only".  Please do not bid if you do not have the funds to make a purchase. A non refundable deposit of $200 is required via Pay Pal within 48 hours of the auction closing. Buyer is responsible for arranging and payment of shipping. Local pickup only. Please email me with any questions. Thanks and happy bidding.... Anthony

Morocco by bike

Wed, 04 May 2011

If you've never been to Morocco, you have missed out, big time. If you were going to go to Morocco on a bike, we'd suggest going along with a living legend like Mick Extance, a five time finisher of the Dakar rally. Maybe the video will whet your appetite.

Recall for 2008-2010 Honda ST1300

Mon, 18 Jul 2011

Honda is recalling certain 2009-2010 ST1300 sport touring motorcycles due to a risk of a brake fluid leakage. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the pre-formed hose supplying fluid from the rear brake reservoir to the rear brake master cylinder is routed in a way that puts it at risk of damage. When the Honda ST1300 is heavily loaded and ridden over rough surfaces, the rear suspension may bottom out, causing the hose to contact the swingarm.

2013 AMA Supercross Indianapolis Race Report

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Ryan Villopoto continues to be in championship form, taking his third consecutive victory and sixth of the season with a win at Lucas Oil Stadium for the Indianapolis round of the 2013 AMA Supercross Championship. The Monster Energy Kawasaki rider had a calculated, methodical race to take the win and expand his championship lead to nine points ahead of Davi Millsaps. Millsaps took the holeshot in a chaotic start to the main event that saw several riders go down at the opening corner.
