Honda Other description

1998 Honda Superhawk VTR1000, 998 Honda VTR1000F Firestorm (Superhawk) 30,000 miles Extremely fun, beautiful and rare sportbike! This Honda VTR1000 is actually a FireStorm 996 (non-US model) imported from Canada and is probably the only silver VTR you will ever see as Honda never made the Superhawk in silver. V-twin torque in the low and mid-RPM range make this bike super fun and very rideable. Great for commuting, twisties and track days (I only did 3 on it, and they were a blast!). Like a torquey Ducati but with Honda reliability. -Well-maintained. -Great mechanical condition. Some minor blemishes (scratches). -Yoshiura RS-3 dual exhaust sounds great and ads a bit of power. -Steel braided brake lines improve braking performance. -Corbin seat is super comfy. Also have Corbin passenger backrest -- the bike can fit a passenger if you remove the rear cowl. -Gen-Mar risers make the riding position slightly more upright for better comfort -- easy to remove if you want a more aggressive riding position. -New rear tire. Clean title, no accidents. Ready to go! This bike is rated among the best used bikes to buy according to Motorcyclist magazine and Cycle World. Cycle World Excerpt: Basic specs: A 996cc, 90-degree V-Twin sportbike making 103 rear-wheel horsepower that propelled the 452-pound VTR to an 11.03-second/124.26-mph quarter-mile and a top speed of 155 mph. Why it won: Without a doubt, the Super Hawk was one of the most enjoyable, affordable and user-friendly--but nonetheless extremely capable--sport machines ever built. This Canadian import has no CA emissions equipment, and has been continuously registered in CA since 1999. It was professionally re-jetted with the Yoshimura exhaust, giving a wonderful exhaust note and a few extra horsepower (around 115 bhp). Cash in hand and M1 license if you want a test drive - serious buyers only, please. I just bought a new enduro as my riding style has changed I no longer need this wonderful sportbike that I've loved for several years -- I hope it finds a good home and is well taken care of. $3,250.00 4084806827

Honda CBR250R top speed run

Sun, 24 Apr 2011

The Cope Law states that: the capacity of the bike you're riding is inversely proportional to your chances of a crash. Never was it more true than on the launch of Honda's CBR125R and CBR250R where a handful of UK journos were riding elbow to elbow for a couple of hours, with laughter flowing from everyone's lid as we all took turns to back in to roundabouts, burnout through town and wheelie from the lights.. This video shows me chasing Trevor Franklin of MCN fame on a top speed run.

Hot Lap Around Spa-Francorchamps With Xavier Simeon

Fri, 20 Jan 2012

If you’re a fan of motorsport on both two and four wheels like me, then you should be familiar with the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium. Here, Belgian native Xavier Simeon, the 2009 FIM Superstock 1000 champion and current Moto2 competitor, does a couple flying laps around his home track aboard a Honda CBR600RR at what appears to be a trackday. The speed he carries and the smoothness of his riding are simply extraordinary.

Baker Vs. Marquez In Superprestigio Superfinal – Video

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Marc Marquez is an incredibly talented motorcycle racer, both on asphalt and in the dirt. His skills on the blacktop are well known by now, but his speed in the dirt opened some eyes as he demonstrated during the Superprestigio, an invitational dirt track event revived by Marquez to have a little fun in the off season and showcase the skills of some of the top riders in the world. Marquez handily won the Superprestigio class for grand prix racers, while the Open class, comprised of non GP riders, was won by that class’ most notable entry: American Brad Baker, the reigning AMA Grand National Champion.
