Honda Other description
Hello,
I am selling my 1980 Honda CX500 custom, with 26,909 miles.
Fresh paint, new battery, new clubman bars, new headlight, tail light, and low-profile turn signals.
Fires
right up with the choke pulled out, which it only needs for about 5
seconds. Idles smoothly and runs great thereafter. Shifts smoothly.
Front brake squeaks (on my to-do list) but stops fine. Gauges work. One
tiny tear in the seat, smaller that the width of my thumb.
It's a
blast to ride. Exceptionally clean chrome and body. Cosmetically and
mechanically in great shape, especially for a 33 year old bike! The
carbs are tuned well. The boots from the engine to the carbs have cracks
in them and could stand to be replaced, but it runs great as-is. I ride
it regularly and will continue to with no reservations. It's a really
solid and reliable bike.
I originally purchased this as my second
bike; to turn into a cafe racer. I've replaced several things to style
that way, and it doesn't have far to go to complete it. I'm selling now
because I'm getting married and only have space for one bike.
I'm happy to answer any questions and take additional pictures. It's a great bike that will make a new owner very happy!
Local pickup only
Thanks.

Honda Trademarks Design for Naked CBR300R
Thu, 06 Mar 2014Earlier this week, we uncovered Kawasaki‘s design trademark for a naked version of its 250cc single-cylinder Ninja RR Mono. It now looks like Kawasaki isn’t the only Japanese manufacturer with a small-displacement naked model on the way. Honda has registered a trademark on the design for a new motorcycle that appears to be a naked CBR300R or CBR250R.

Tue, 01 Nov 2011This video of the Knockhill end of season Jock Taylor meeting in 1988 makes me smile. Even although I had the dream ticket of riding for HRC in the 500cc World Championship I never stopped wanting to come back to the homeland and race my old mates. Brian Morrison started racing on the same day as myself and went on to have a successful carreer riding for Honda in the UK then later in the World Endurance Championship.
Honda CB900F Bol D'or
Sun, 24 Feb 2013Slick videos shot on HD GoPros (complete with dubstep soundtracks) are now common place. But back in the late 80s, self shot videos were much thinner on the ground, due to expensive camcorders that were about the same size as a petrol tank and probably just as heavy too.In a blast from the past, 'Old love' features a Honda CB900F Bol D'or and was posted online a few days ago by the self-proclaimed 'one of the quickest 'drivers' in Langenhagen, Germany': Jan Rosanka. The Blue Order remix is a great choice to accompany the short but my favourite scene is the friendly 'hi' to camera followed by the middle finger.
