Honda CB description

For sale is my 1975 Honda CB500T Cafe Racer.  This bike has been completely gone through and most parts but the motor and frame are new, modified, or upgraded.  Bike was built as an every day ride not as a trailer queen so its is not perfect but it starts and rides like a dream and is a TON of fun on a back road.  The bike had a broken speedometer when I bought it and has had under 600 miles put on it since the rebuild I would imagine the real mileage on the motor it over 10,000 but I have no idea for sure.  This bike is also listed locally so I reserve the right to end this sale at any time if someone picks up the bike locally.  I love this bike but there are to many other things in the shop right now and I need to make space.  

A few things that have been upgraded on this bike since 1975 are: 
Chopped back end and removed rear tail section, replaced with custom fiberglass rear seat which also houses all electronics and battery underneath
Hidden kill switch for a little security
Professionally cleaned, tuned, and jetted Carburetors 
Removed Electric Starter
Cleaned and polished engine cases
Ballistic performance LifeP04 Battery
New Dime City Cycles Rear Shocks
New Front and rear tire (about 500 miles on tires)
New Speedometer, Tachometer, and Cables (Dime City Cycles)
New clutch cables and clutch (Dime City Cycles)
New blinker indicator switches, blinkers (front and back), and tail light (Dime City Cycles)
New throttle and throttle cables (Dime City Cycles)
Upgraded and modified front brake (stock one was VERY under sized) to caliper and master cyl. from a mid 80s Honda Magna and drilled front rotor
Electronic ignition 
Lengthened kick stand to accomodate tires and suspension upgrades
Wrapped stock exhaust and added turn downs 
Removed all stock air boxes and chambers and replaced with K&N cone filters (Professionally tuned to run without boxes)
New Seat and foam 
New Front and Rear Brakes
Clubman Bars
Stainless Steel Bolt Kit
New Gaskets 

Im sure there is more but thats what I can remember.  
There is a small crack in the paint on the side of the tank which is in one of the pictures there is also some dripped gasoline across the tank which is also pictured.  If you have any questions about the bike please ask I would be glad to answer them.  Bike starts right up and I rode it around the block a few times before I took the pictures you are looking at in the listing.  It was my every day ride till last year when I got way to busy to get on it.  I also have a hand full of stock parts if the buyer is interested.

Rossi Wins at Assen, but Lorenzo Is the Hero; Alpinestars Releases Crash Data

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

There’s only one thing left to say about Jorge Lorenzo’s 124 mph crash during a rainy practice session last Thursday while warming up for the TT Assen: It could have been a lot worse. The images are horrific, but thanks to groundbreaking protective gear, Lorenzo walked away with only a collarbone fracture and a heck of a tale to tell. Today, Alpinestars released a trace graph analysis of Lorenzo’s spill, thanks to data collected from his TechAir airbag suit.

Honda’s View of the Motorcycle Industry in Canada

Fri, 13 Aug 2010

Recently here on Motorcycle.com, we’ve been bringing you reviews of a handful of Honda scoots that are available to our neighbors (or is that neighbours?) to the North in Canada, yet remain forbidden fruit for American consumers. Reviewer Costa Mouzouris gave us a look at the naked CB1000R that Honda Canada is considering importing, the already-available half-faired CBF1000, and the entry-level CBR125R. Meanwhile, Honda’s competitors have also announced some new products for Canada that have yet to be made available in the U.S.

The Private Life of Dani Pedrosa – Video

Wed, 02 May 2012

Dani Pedrosa is probably the most enigmatic of MotoGP’s “Aliens”. He doesn’t have the charisma of a Valentino Rossi, he doesn’t attract controversy like teammate Casey Stoner, and he doesn’t have the exuberant victory celebrations of Jorge Lorenzo. There’s also a large segment of American fans who still can’t forgive Pedrosa for taking out his teammate Nicky Hayden at Estoril in 2006, almost costing the Kentucky Kid the championship.
