Honda CB description

Up for auction is a beautiful 1965 Honda CB160 Sport.  It was purchased from the original owner after being stored inside for 40 years.  Vin # B1601060033, Engine # B160E-1059805,  9473 miles.  It was disassembled so that the frame and swingarm could be powder coated, and the bodywork painted.  All work on this bike was done by certified Honda technicians that are familiar with bikes of this era.  Comes with clear transferable registration (title). 


Many NOS parts were purchased and installed for this restoration, including header pipes, mirrors, plastic tank badges, steering damper, lower shock covers, front sprocket cover, chain & sprockets, front fender (repainted to match rear fender), rubber pegs, cables and levers. It has new tires and battery. The original toolkit, which appears to be complete, is included with the bike.

The top end of the motor was rebuilt, using genuine Honda pistons, rings, cam chain, and gaskets.  The carbs and petcock were both rebuilt with new Honda parts.  The lights work nicely and the bike will pass NYSI easily.  The odometer works correctly.  The speedometer is erratic.  This should be addressed to avoid speeding tickets on this fun little bike!   It has both kick and electric start, which work as they should . The bikes starts easily, and the clutch works great and shifts smoothly.  It does not smoke and is a blast to ride.  The new owner has put almost 50 miles on the bike since the rebuild, and fell in love with it.  Unfortunately he has too many bikes and has decided to let this one go. 

As you can see in the pictures, this bike is cosmetically very nice.  I will try to describe it as well as I can. Everything I describe can be seen in the pictures.  The seat has no rips or tears and is pliable.  There is an indentation on the right side where something laid against it. The chrome is nice, but not perfect.  The front rim has a small spot of rust between 2 spokes.  The rear rim looks good.  The headlight rim has a spot of rust on the top (also pictured).  As mentioned earlier, the header pipes are NOS.  The right muffler is in good shape. The left muffler has scrapes in the rear. Both mufflers include original baffles. The fuel tank has no dents or dings, and has no rust inside.  It's in fantastic shape with nice original chrome panels and knee pads.

 The owner asked me to put the bike up for auction for him. Please study the pictures and don't hesitate to email with questions.  If you need additional pictures, please let me know.  Keep in mind, I don't have the bike here, so pictures could take a day or two.  Don't wait until the last day.  Buyer is responsible for picking the bike up or making shipping arrangements.
