Honda CBX description

                           1980 HONDA CBX—Showbike, Collectible, Rider

Pristine condition. No scratches, dings, dents or scuffs

Retired CEO downsizing personal motorcycle collection.

This is a magnificent example of Honda’s 1980 CBX…the flagship of the Honda line from 1978 through 1982. Original and immaculate in every way, this CBX never fails to draw attention and admiration. From its mammoth six cylinder engine to its finely preserved finish and bright work, it’s a beautiful, reliable machine.

If you are interested in a meticulously maintained CBX, I encourage you to look at the photos and enlarge them to fully appreciate the condition of this bike. It has just had carbs and hydraulic brakes rebuilt with factory Honda parts. Interior of gas tank cleaned and flushed, no rust.

Everything on this bike works correctly—electrical parts, switches, lights, gauges, horn. Engine starts easily with minimal choke and pulls strongly and smoothly from idle to redline. Clutch, transmission, chain and sprockets are all excellent. Battery is new. Factory Honda crash bars around engine. Bike has concealed, easily-accessible Battery Tender connection for storage or display. Rear tire is excellent, front tire is fair.  Original factory tool kit is included.

Now 33 years old, this bike can be enjoyed as a collectible, show bike, or rider. Also great conversation piece with its imposing engine, six exhaust headers, six carburetors, and twenty-four valves, and its gleaming original factory paint. Engine and frame numbers match. Located in Birmingham, Alabama.

Bike also comes with like-new, custom Corbin Touring saddle. See photos.

Bid with confidence. Buy a landmark machine in magnificent condition. This is one of dozens of my personal, collectible motorcycles I have sold to satisfied eBay buyers.  More bikes to come.

Press Launches - the ugly truth. Part 1

Thu, 31 Mar 2011

For the nosey amongst you, you might be interested to know what goes on during a 'press launch'. The phrase is used in passing in new model reports as if you should all know what it is. Like some kind of given.

Stoner explains the tank slapper

Mon, 03 Oct 2011

Casey Stoner looked all set to win at Motegi, after translating his pole position into an early race-lead. But coming over the crest on the back straight his bike momentarily lost control in a tank slapper. Regaining composure the championship leader was forced to pump his brakes to get the pads back in place, with the rear-wheel bouncing in the air he ran out of time and space to make the 90 degree right hander and was forced to run into the gravel.

Moto2 needs more radical bikes

Wed, 05 Sep 2012

Makers of fine exhausts, Taylormade Racing have built a Moto2 racer that harks back to the innovative machines like the Elf Honda 500 and Britten V1000. Since Moto2's inception in 2010 the class has featured bikes with conventional chassis but the Taylormade bike, designed by Paul Taylor and John Keogh, has a radical design featuring a carbon-fibre monocoque frame, carbon-fibre swingarm, wishbone monoshock front suspension and an under-seat radiator. However, with such radical engineering the inherent problem is that it is a risk for teams to invest in such a project.
