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

Honda MotoGP Production Racer Undergoes Testing at Motegi

Mon, 27 May 2013

Development of Honda‘s new production racer is well underway, as the new (relatively) low-cost MotoGP racebike underwent testing at Japan’s Twin Ring Motegi circuit May 23-24. Conceived as a lower-cost option for race teams, the production racer project is running slightly behind schedule but Honda still expects it will available in time for the 2014 MotoGP season. Early reports estimate the price for the production racer to be around US$1.26 million, a substantial price, but still considerably less expensive than rumored $3.9 million it currently costs to lease a Honda RC213V for one season.

Stuck for a gift? Solution No3: Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki or Kawasaki merchandise

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

After the excesses of KTM and Harley's gifts ranges, Hondas seems tame. But even the sober Japanese firm has a handful of oddities in its line-up. The Japanese have been accused of imitating in the past, and Honda's incorporation of a baby's dummy in its official accessories catalogue mimics KTM's 'Silencer-System Mini Pro'.
