Honda CL description

For sale is my rare 1974 Honda CL200. Honda only made the CL200 for one year! This is in great condition for it's age. Some rust on exhaust and chrome and two dents in tank, see pictures. All lights and electrics work. This bike has no title. In CT it's not needed if it's older than 20 years old.

The story with this bike: My friend bought it from someone in CT and rode it for one season. He lost interest, sold it to me and it's been stored in my shed for a few years. I decided to take it out, do a tune up (among other things) and sell it because I need the space. 

Over the past couple weeks this is what's been done to it:
Oil change
Welded up and painted muffler because it had holes
New tires and tubes (One season old)
New spark plugs and plug caps
New ignition points
New AGM battery
New tachometer drive oil seal
New tachometer cover gasket
New tachometer cable
New fork boots
New fork seals
Fresh fork oil
New air filters
New stator cover gasket
Completely disassembled and cleaned carburetors with new OEM pilot and main jets
Replaced old glass fuse with new blade style

This bike runs great and has very low miles...less than 12k for being 42 years old! Doesn't leak or burn oil. Even the seat is in great shape. Only minor thing is the muffler is a little rattly, sometimes noticeable while it's idling. Most of the chrome looks great but there's some spots where it's pitted and rusty. Paint still looks very good. Tank inside is clean. I de-rusted it and fogged the inside with oil before storage. Usually starts in one kick. Electric start also works flawlessly but kick starting it is funner :)

Looks amazing and it's great on gas. This bike could be for anyone. A hipster looking for a great running rare old Honda. A woman looking for something small and easy to handle while still being stylish and retro. Someone who's new to bikes and wants a great reliable starter bike. Or just someone who wants to look rad while cruising by the beach.

If you want to test ride it, you need a motorcycle license and I have to have the cash in my hand.
I could ride it up and down the street for you and go through the gears if you want. Contact me with any questions. I respond quickly!

2011 Vyrus Moto2 Grand Prix Racer Preview

Fri, 14 Jan 2011

Motorbike cognoscenti recognize the Vyrus name, the Italian brand producing exotic sportbikes based on the amazing hub-center-steered Bimota Tesi. The Vyrus story begins when Bimota filed for bankruptcy in the early 2000s. Vyrus principal Ascanio Rodorigo, a former Bimota employee, began producing his version of the Tesi after Bimota let its patents expire while it was in bankruptcy.

According to Transport Canada, the outer plates on the links of the drive chain may not have received proper heat treatment.

Crossover Honda CRF450R again upgraded

Wed, 24 May 2017

The first update is related to the kickstarter, or rather, its absence: now the “single-barrel” in the basic version is started by an electric starter with a very light Li-ion battery. The second difference of the newly rejuvenated CRF450R is the suspension with changed settings - obviously, it steers more fun and perky than before.
