Honda CB description

1971 honda cb500. Bike was a barn find that had not ran since 1983. Since coming into my possession it has received a rebuilt transmission, rebuilt carburators, and petcock, new front master cylinder, new clubman bars, and new slip on mufflers. Bike was equiped with aftermarket headers, aftermarket cam, and heavy duty aftermarket clutch when I bought it.  Bike runs and rides perfect, everything works as it should including all lights, horn, electric start, ect. Seat is original and in perfect condition. Tank and side covers are not original, they are off a 74 cb550 but fit and mount like the originals. Tank has been cleaned and coated and is free of dents. Title to bike was lost long ago. I have a bill of sale from the person i bought it from and will include one of my own. If sold in Illinois a provisional title can be obtained for 50 dollars with bill of sale and is good for 3 years. At which time a clean title would be issued to the owner. Bike can be licensed and ridden with the provisional title as well. Bike is a great project and very fun to ride and is pretty fast to. Would be a real head turner with a fresh paint job. Please feel free to ask any questions. Bike is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end auction early. Thanks for looking.

Back in the day, the All Japan 500cc Championship at Tsukuba

Fri, 24 Jun 2011

This ‘you tube’ gem sent to me recently brought back some funny memories from the scary but incredibly exciting days of 500cc two stroke racing. This particular race was the final round of the All Japan 500cc Championship at Tsukuba Circuit where I enjoyed a head to head battle with national hero Tadahiko Taira. Yamaha’s favourite son at the time, ‘tie wrap’ as we liked to call him, was taller and better looking than most Japanese riders (maybe a war baby?) and went on to win nearly everything in Japan during his career.

X-ray: Marquez's Suter Moto2

Mon, 22 Aug 2011

Learning in the quickest and most painful manner with some huge crashes, Marc Marquez has grown into a championship contender in his first year in Moto2. A debut win in Le Mans saw the rookie go on to win four races in a row and become a glaring orange nuisance in the championship peripherals of Stefan Bradl. As success has gone Marquez's way there have been complaints from riders of the same chassis that this is down to Suter giving the Spaniard preferential treatment.
