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.

Geeky snippets ahead of the Phillip Island MotoGP

Tue, 13 Oct 2009

Valentino Rossi has finished on the podium eleven times in his twelve visits to Phillip Island across all three GP classes. The only race at Phillip Island that he did not finish in the top three was on his first visit riding a 125cc machine in 1997 when he finished sixth. In 1998 and 1999 he won the 250cc races and since then has had nine podiums in the premier-class including five victories, the last of which was in 2005.

How do 1000s compare to the 800s

Wed, 09 Nov 2011

Now MotoGP has completed its transformation from 800 to 1000cc, how do the lap times between the different bikes compare using Valencia and the post-season test as a benchmark.. Yesterday, Dani Pedrosa was the quickest 1000 on his Honda RC213V setting a time of 1:32.186. To find the quickest time from the outgoing 800 era you have to look at his current Repsol Honda team-mate, Casey Stoner, but it wasn't set on a Honda.
