Honda Other description

Here's a nice little 1972 Honda SL70 with a new Lifan 125cc engine, new tires, and new handle bars. Starts easy, runs and rides well, this bike is really fun to ride. The new engine was put in within the last year, it has been sitting alot since so it might benefit from a carb cleaning at this point. VIN# SL70-1049966, build date 8/71. Seat is in great shape with no rips, gas tank has been lined, paint on the tank and rear fender is showing scratches and general wear. Front fender and side covers were repainted and don't quite match the original paint (not a great quality repaint), new decals on the side covers. Rear end of the front fender was trimmed off to accommodate the cylinder head of the larger engine. Chrome is presentable, there are some rust spots on the rims and some minor pitting in the fork tubes. Frame has original paint. Headlamp and kill switch do not work. Muffler and engine have some scratches. Sold with bill of sale only. This little SL70 would make a great Christmas gift. I have the original engine that was removed from this bike for sale for $200, it was supposedly running when it was removed. $100 deposit via Paypal due within 24 hours of auction end, balance due in cash or cashier's check, all funds must clear before the bike is released. This bike is local pick up only in Springfield, Illinois. Any and all shipping arrangements are the buyer's responsibility, but I'll do what I can to accommodate shipping. Please pick up within two weeks of auction end, if you need a bit more time I'll work with you.

  This weekend, the MotoGP circus makes its way to the United States for round two of the world championship, held at the stunning new Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, the first time the track will host a world championship level motorcycle event. Expect to see the world’s fastest racebikes reach speeds over 200 mph on the 1 km (0.62-mile) back straight, and bring ear plugs — these bikes are loud! Fresh off a 1-2 finish in the season opener in Qatar, Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi are looking to carry the momentum to CotA.

EICMA 2013: 2014 Honda CTX1300 First Impressions – Video

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

From the moment we published the 2014 Honda CTX1300 Revealed story, virtually all the comments about the bike have been negative. From its looks to its engine and everything in between, it seems that many of you aren’t a fan of Honda‘s latest entry into the cruiser(ish) market. Of course, all this judgement is based on pictures.

Suzuka Eight Hour capers

Mon, 05 Sep 2011

Chatting to TT legend John McGuiness recently about his first Suzuka Eight Hour experience got me thinking of a few capers the boys and me managed a few years back at what is still Japan's most important race of the season. It is a unique event that starts at 11am and finishes at 7pm making  it a pukka endurance race as the last hour is run with headlights on in the dark. It is essentially an eight hour sprint that showcases the trickest endurance machinery and manufacturer’s sales can be affected the following year depending on who wins or loses.
