Honda CB description


Summary: Vintage Honda in good mechanical condition, decent cosmetic condition, needs nothing, currently registered and ridden in CT (no title).

Bike starts, idles and runs well.  Shifts through all gears with no problem.  Brakes work well.  Lights, horn and directionals all working.  Charging system, battery and starter all good.  Steering and suspension seem fine.
Oil and filter have been changed only a couple hundred miles ago.
Carbs have been cleaned and vacuum balanced using the Motion-Pro tool, valve clearances are all set to perfection.  Cylinder compression is on spec.
Exhaust pipes, shocks and headlight bracket are off another 750K of the same vintage.  Wheels, originally chrome, have been painted.  Front tire is new; back tire has a lot of miles left.
Chrome fenders have minor pitting but still shine up well.  Chrome overall is pretty good.
Front brake upper and lower systems have been rebuilt using OEM parts from Honda.
Seat has been re-covered, tank has been cleaned and lined with POR-15.  Tank paint has scratches and wear but no dents.
Side covers are in good shape, matching, with the correct striping for the Excel Black 750K (so many badly repaired/painted covers out there on eBay!)
I have added a "National Cycle Plexifairing 3" windshield ($200) for highway riding (think warm hands in winter).
Bike is sold without title and no title is required in CT (and many other states) for bikes this age.

It was fun cleaning and restoring and riding this machine, but now it's time to say goodbye and get back some room in the garage.
I have lowered the reserve and the buy-it-now, so my loss is going to be your gain.  The best riding days of the year are still ahead of us, so don't hesitate...Bid!  (Thanks.)

**** UPDATE: I have just uploaded one additional picture showing a small ding in the front fender, not visible in other pix.  Also the rear luggage rack looks to be missing a piece that connects to the license plate bracket, probably not a big deal.  The bike is sold as-is, so I don't want there to be any surprises, and I hope I haven't missed anything.  Happy bidding!

Honda UNI-CUB: For People Who Enjoy Riding on Moving Trash Cans

Tue, 15 May 2012

Remember the Honda U3-X? Unveiled in 2009, the U3-X was Honda‘s personal mobility device concept, essentially a self-balancing electronic unicycle that can move in any direction by simply leaning. Honda has created an updated version it calls the UNI-CUB.

Honda will introduce the new CBR600RR later this year

Wed, 08 Jul 2020

There has been no official information from Honda about the new generation CBR600RR yet, but it became known that the 2021 model will echo the older Fireblade in terms of its exterior. The "Six hundred" will receive a "two-eyed" LED head optics, the air intake will be located in the middle. Winglets will be added to the fairing to increase downforce at high speeds.

Isle of Man TT 2014: Sure Sidecar TT 2 Results

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

Dave Molyneux won his 17th career TT as he and passenger Patrick Farrance took the second Sidecar race of the 2014 Isle of Man TT. Molyneux is the career leader in Sidecar TT wins and third overall in total Isle of Man TT victories behind Joey Dunlop and John McGuinness. Molyneux and Farrance won the race by a good 44-second margin but they benefited greatly from a mechanical problem plaguing early race leaders John Holden and Andrew Winkle.
