Honda CB description

1983 Honda CB 1000.  These bikes were offered in 2 colors in 1983, a copper color and this color (Black/Gray)  This bike is in really nice condition for its age.  I have owned it 2.5 years and have had zero issues with it besides replacing battery last summer.  Runs very well.  Only problem is that you MAY want to replace the front turn signal rubber grommets which hold them in place because they have dry rotted throughout the years which makes them sag downward,   I have placed a splint on the L.H. one (see photo) plus the speedometer light does not illuminate and needs replaced.  All remaining electrical is good and works fine.  Pipes are solid and rust free, chrome fenders are good and shine well, no dents or noticeable scratching on tank or side covers (remember its a 1983 and its not perfect)  I simply cannot think of any additional problems to tell you about with this bike because there aren't any.  This bike is a collectors bike due to the fact that it was manufactured only 1 year.  It has the high / low 10 speed gear box in it which makes it stand out as well.  It runs beautifully does not smoke or burn oil.  Zero engine, gas, oil, gear box, has no leaks of any type.  Kept in heated garage in the winter and not abused (and it shows) History reflects that it has always been adult owned and I'm the 3rd owner of this bike (I'm 59 years old)  This bike had the oil changed this spring and is READY TO RIDE, you'll need to do nothing to roll on this classic!  Only selling it because I have too many toys and need to get it to someone who will enjoy it.  I simply don't have enough time to ride it any longer.  I always get complements on this beautiful bike when I cruise on it.  It Kelly Blue Books at $2630.00 in perfect condition so my $1600.00 asking price and $1900.00 "Buy it Now" price seems reasonable to me.  Below are the specs which I've copied from Bikez. Listed mileage may increase if I decide to ride it one last time. Any questions you may call / text me at 219.228.0580. Kevin

Press launches - the ugly truth. Part 3

Sun, 03 Apr 2011

So with an afternoon of sightseeing completed (a rare luxury on most launches) it's back to the hotel for the press conference. These are you usually long winded, tooth pulling affairs with Japanese technicians insisting on speaking their bestest engrish which only serves to elongate the proceedings. Nothing kills a presentation more than reading every word of a powerpoint slide verbatum, even thought the viewers can read exactly the same words (and probably a lot faster).  The Crossrunner presentation was mercifully brief and snappy followed by dinner in the hotel and a reasonably early night as everyone had already been up for twenty hours.

Motorcycle Results From The 2013 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

The 91st running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is in the books, and while much of the media attention focused on Sebastien Loeb demolishing the outright course record, setting the first eight-minute lap with a 8:13.878 — over 90 seconds faster than the previous lap record —in his Peugeot 208 T16, history was made in the motorcycle divisions as well. Below are the times for all the motorcycle competitors in this year’s event. As expected, Carlin Dunne aboard the Lightning electric superbike, took top honors among all motorcycle competitors, marking the first time an electric motorcycle has done so.
