Honda CB description

Up for sale is my 1971 Honda CB750. I've had this motorcycle for 4 years and purchased it from the second owner. The motorcycle runs great. It starts up immediately and idles smoothly. 

The Good:
New battery
Runs, idles smoothly
Tank, chrome, and frame in great shape
Additional oil pressure gauge located on right side of engine
Amsoil full synthetic oil has few miles on it
Tires are in good shape
Brakes work fine
Radiator has been added for long cruises
Clubman handlebars give the bike a cool cafe look


The Bad:
Bike does not come with original exhaust. A sport bike pipe comes with the bike and can be attached
Throttle grip is ripped at the end
Seat has a tear in the seam (after market seats can be found online for around $100)
Small dent at the top of the right side shock
Paint wear where seat meets tank (covered by piece of black electrical tape)

If I were to continue to own this bike for the next 53,000 miles, I would replace the fluids. Besides that, the bike is turnkey and ready to go. I don't think the fluids need to be replaced, but it's always good to do so anyway. 

This is a great bike that's becoming harder and harder to find in good shape. It's got a great, throaty exhaust note without the pipe. It sounds more like a sportbike when the pipe is attached. You will enjoy it.

Frog eBike – the Electric Successor to 1985 Frog FZ750 Concept

Tue, 03 Apr 2012

San Francisco-based Frog Design released images of a new electric motorcycle concept, just as its influential Yamaha FZ750-based Rana concept gets enshrined at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Frog designer Jin Soek Hwang prepared the Frog eBike concept as an expression of how electric motor technology can influence motorcycle design. In a post on Frog’s blog, the designer says he was inspired in part by Frog’s 1985 FZ750 Rana concept (pictured after the jump).

Casey Stoner To Test Factory Honda At Motegi

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

British publication MotorcycleNews.com is reporting that 2007 and 2011 MotoGP world champion Casey Stoner will test a factory Honda RC213V at the Twin Ring Motegi, Honda’s test track, August 6-7. Stoner’s shock retirement from MotoGP at the end of the 2012 season was met with skepticism in some circles, as many believed (and still do) that the 27 year-old, current Australian V8 Supercar driver would eventually make a comeback to two wheels. As it stands, HRC has no plans to enter Stoner as a wildcard entry at Phillip Island or Motegi MotoGP rounds, and insists the former champion’s services are being used strictly to help develop next year’s RC213V and the 1000cc production racer Honda plans to introduce next year.

MotoGP Lifts Rookie Rule, Caps Factory Prototype Entries and Adjusts Other Regulations

Fri, 29 Jun 2012

As expected, MotoGP organizers have officially lifted the rule barring rookies from racing for factory teams, but the Grand Prix Commission also tweaked some other regulations including a cap on factory prototype machines. We’ve discussed the lifting of the rookie rule already, with the main impetus being to allow a manufacturer such as Honda to sign up-and-coming Moto2 star Marc Marquez when he is expected to move up to the premiere class next season. As of Jan.
