Honda Other description

The Good: Unique and flawless 2 tone burgundy & candy apple metallic paint job, carbs recently cleaned and completely rebuilt by OldSchoolCarbs.com..(they do awesome work - carbs look like new inside and out), Jardine slip on megaphone style aftermarket pipes make this bike louder than stock - sounds great and noise=safety, I installed a new Pingel manual fuel petcock and deleted the vacuum petcock because the stock petcocks are impossible to find and they don't even make a rebuild kit for it, new battery last spring, new lower coolant hose (silicone hose), installed new bridgestone spitfire tires last spring - they have only about 500 miles on them, Exhaust system is in very good condition - chrome is nice, New Fuel line and fuel filter, Brake calipers were rebuilt last spring and new pads installed,  all fluids changed recently - including cooling system flush, brake & clutch fluid flush, rear axle oil, engine oil and filter replaced last week - used Castrol Synthetic motorcycle oil, Fork oil was replaced in the spring, seat is in great shape as the pictures show. Runs strong / doesn't smoke, includes factory service manual and Clymer manual, original stock mufflers included.

The Bad: Carbs could probably use a vacuum sync and some minor adjustment...bike doesn't love to idle when cold, and I find myself adjusting the idle screw upward a bit until the bike is fully warmed up; at which point she purrs like a kitten...runs great at all RPM's under load however, and is very fast with lots of torque. Needs new fuel level sensor if you want the fuel gauge to work and warning light to turn off...it hasn't really bothered me and I just fill up if I get down to the reserve, I just noticed some moisture around the right fork seal - may need fork seals in the new future

I'm sure I'm leaving something out but can't think of anything else right now...All in all a great bike...the good far outweighs the bad and in great shape for 30+ years old. Always been garage kept.I've been riding it all summer to and from work about once per week (25 miles each way) and it has not let me down. 

This bike has 13,981 miles on it as of 9/23/2013...I will probably put a few more miles on it this week because the weather is so nice, so the clock could be at 14K before end of week...

There is a $1,100 reserve on this bike...I just can't let it go for less, I will just keep riding and enjoying it if I can't get at least this amount (which is what I paid for it).

$250 Deposit must be made via PayPal within 24 Hours winning bid, remainder due in cash or PayPal before this bike leaves my posession.

Local pickup only - Bike is in Somerset, NJ. I will work with your shipper, but any shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer.

Clear NJ title

feel free to ask me any questions and good luck!

VTR-Powered Honda Lawnmower Sets Guinness World Record + Video

Wed, 02 Apr 2014

A lawnmower powered by the engine from a Honda VTR1000F Superhawk has set a new Guinness record for the world’s fastest mower. Honda UK revealed its 996cc V-Twin-powered Mean Mower last summer, claiming it had been tested at a speed of 100 mph but could reach a theoretical top speed of 133 mph. Those claims were put to the test in March at the IDIADA Proving Ground in Tarragona, Spain, with an official Guinness World Records adjudicator on hand to observe.

Mystic Mac's 2014 MotoGP predictions

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

There is no real off season in Moto GP.  Although we complain about being starved of racing, for those at the sharp end, in little more than two months they have new bikes to assemble, team staff to put in place and sponsors to nail down that will pay for it all.  This time frame is also tight for riders, as it seems more every year go straight under the surgeon’s knife after the last round and spend the short winter recuperating for the season ahead. The 2014 Moto GP championship looks like a cracker as apart from the ten full factory riders we now have at least eight non factory riders with properly competitive machinery.  We also have five Brits on the grid, two with podium potential.  Whatever happens though (providing you have BT Sport) you can just sit back and enjoy watching the incredible Marc Marquez do things that shouldn’t be possible. Speaking of whom, I didn’t believe a Rossi replacement would come this soon.  And when I say replacement, I mean a rider that is the full package.  Although in some ways quite different to Vale, he’s an equally phenomenal talent plus a very likeable character that appeals to the masses and although respectful to his rivals off track, deadly competitive in the heat of battle.  Being young and good looking he’s obviously a dream for sponsors and the sport in general.  Marquez has evolved in his own way but thankfully into a perfect replacement for our sport when the VR steps down.
