Honda Other description

Honda Helix 1988 – Low Mileage (9265) - RELISTED due to non paying bidder (NOTE: I will report all non paying bidders)!

Reason for selling: I bought this bike for my wife but she could not get the hang of it

Honda Helix is known as the most comfortable scooter to ride (250cc).

It has a trunk to carry groceries, etc.

The tires and battery are good (rear tire has a slow leak)

The seat has been recovered.

 The average price for these models is $1000 - a similar model (white) non running just sold here for $500 (for parts?).

 This bike was repainted (red) by a previous owner and the new paint scratches easily.

 I test drove just before this listing; it runs strong. Guaranteed to start, run and drive upon delivery.

 Buyer is responsible for selecting an auto/motorcycle transport and paying all shipping frees (I have been quoted under $400). Guaranteed to start, run and drive upon delivery (for long shipment may need battery recharge). 

 Local buyers please contact me to arrange a test drive (north of Cottonwood).

 Payment by cash, cashiers check or bank certified check (as recommended by Ebay) within 3 days.

A video of this scooter is available on You Tube - title is Honda Helix Red 1988 - Sedona AZ

 

Disclosures: There is a replacement mirror on the left side (wife ran into a bush – the bike was never dropped during our ownership).  There is also a dime to quarter size hole in the left rear turn signal. I didn’t even notice it until the tape covering it came off. I will look for some replacement tape. A plastic trim piece on the right side is broken - temporary repair in place (bondo and black paint).

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Rossi runs special Simoncelli tribute helmet

Sun, 06 Nov 2011

During the 10 o'clock trial laps today, Valentino ran with a new helmet dedicated to his friend Marco Simoncelli. To demonstrate how much Valentino was affected by the tragedy that hit the Honda rider, Valentino's helmet will be divided in half: the front part of the AGV GP-Tech will be exactly like Marco Simoncelli's, with its red and white motif and ever present number 58, while the back will maintain the colours Valentino used throughout the 2011 season. Vale will use the helmet for all of Valencia's weekend.
