Honda CB description

 Had a $1200 service by Honda before being parked several years ago THEN I purchased it and performed the following work:

New MAC 4 into 2 exhaust (like stock)

New CR smoothbore carbs w/ NOS intake manifolds (absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to find for an A) including remote idle screw adjustment for warming up.

NOS King/Queen seat

New battery

Took apart, detailed, polished and waxed everything as you can see bike is nearly immaculate original condition DID square shoulder type rims w/no corrosion, tank is perfect inside and out, bikes starts immediately and sounds AWESOME!

NOTES: Bike has original 1977 dealer installed options as follows; VETTER Windjammer in perfect condition, pockets are intact no rot, fiberglass perfect windscreen clear, and have ORIGINAL VETTER MANUAL; luggage rack and adjustable backrest with HONDA on it, slides forward for driver without passenger; highway bar with pegs; locking cruise control, SHOE fiberglass saddlebags in good restorable condition.

What does it need: All turn signals work but blink fast probably needs heavier flasher, Seat needs 1 or 2 screws tapped into metal pan for stock hinge installation I just hadn't gotten around to it, and the carbs need the needles raised for more mid range, it runs GREAT but there is a significant flat spot mid range.

XTRAS Included: Chilton Manual; Cover; Baffels (they are out now); new shocks (the stock ones work fine still); upper shock nuts stock ones are a little rusty; extra smaller and larger jets for the smoothbores for your tinkering pleasure; new front brake shoes just in case; stock seat in perfect condition soft and pliable not stiff, no cracks; stock tool kit and kicker pedal; and saddlebags. *Stock carbs (supposedly rebuild but were gummed up when I got it) and airbox with new filter is included in case you want to take the smoothbores off.

If you were ever curious how to convert your smelly, noisy and dirty gas powered motorcycle into a quiet and zero emissions electric motorcycle then you have to check this video out from GomiStyle.  They take an old Honda Rebel 250 and customize the frame to accommodate the electric motor and batteries, they claim the conversion should take about two to three days to complete, the batteries will take about 5-8 hours to charge and will give you a top speed of 45 mph. Here is a link to the step-by-step instructions, check out the video after the jump. The GomiCycle – An Electric Motorcycle Conversion from Media Sapien on Vimeo.

Having a Randy Mamola moment

Thu, 10 May 2012

Back in 1985 Randy Mamola was captured on film performing the most miraculous save of all time, hanging on for dear life as his Honda NSR500 tried to fling him from his seat. Recently, we've seen some impromptu homages to the original with Jonathan Rea at Assen and the near-save from Jakub Kornfeil in the Moto3 race at Jerez. Now we have on-board footage of American racer Genki Hagata calming a high-side at the Infineon Raceway in California.

Florida to Alaska and Back on a Honda CBR125R

Tue, 24 May 2011

A 65-year-old man from Windsor, Ontario, Canada is attempting a cross-continent ride from Key West, Fla., to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska and back, on a Honda CBR125R. Bob Munden of Windsor is attempting to set the record for the smallest motorcycle to make the trip from the southernmost accessible point in North America to the northernmost point, and back. A print shop owner with a stable of five motorcycles, Munden will attempt the trip on the 124.7cc single-cylinder four-stroke Honda CBR125R, an entry-level sportbike model Honda offers in Canada.
