Honda CB description

Beautiful, well maintained 1977 550F Super Sport. Offered only from 75'- 77', this is a hard to find, very nice example of the final year. Dubbed the "Flying French Horn" by Cycle World, this sporting middle-weight does everything very well. Almost as fast as the 750's of the day, but FAR more maneuverable. This bike runs very well, handles superbly, and corners like it's on rails. Purcased from the 2nd owner 2 years ago, ridden very little, and then stored on the enclosed front porch of my home. When I purchased the bike, it had a double step seat installed (included),which I replaced with a factory style race seat ($500 !). Has the orginal muffler, but, like all of them, has some rot on the end. For that reason I purchased a very nice vintage R.C. Racing header muffler. 2nd owner lost the starter button, so he installed a toggle switch instead. However, the stock switch is included for easy conversion back to stock. Also included are new plugs, oil filter, spare cables, stock mint mirrors, owner's manual, and service records. Bike will need a new battery installed. Tires are in very good condition, as is the rest of the bike over all. Could use a good detailing, but a very nice rare vintage bike at a great price. Please feel free to ask questions or for additional pics, and happy bidding !

2014 WSBK – Assen Results

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Heavy rains and a fortuitous red flag were the difference in the World Superbike Championship‘s visit to The Cathedral of motorcycle racing, the TT Circuit Assen in the Netherlands. Aprilia‘s Sylvain Guintoli captured his second win of the season in Race 1, which was halted early by a red flag with five laps to go just as it looked like reigning WSBK champion Tom Sykes was gearing up for a final challenge. The second race was also shortened, not by a red flag but because of a rain, turning the 21-lap race into a 10-lap sprint.

So that's why he's called RANDY de Puniet

Tue, 20 Jul 2010

RANDY de Puniet may well have just been ejected from his LCR Honda RC212V MotoGP racer during qualifying for Sunday's Sachsenring GP but that ain't gonna stop him from bringing one of the company perks with him to Dr Costa's on-circuit surgery. The Frenchman crashed during qualifying after hitting oil and water spilled on track by Jorge Lorenzo's Fiat Yamaha, after it spewed its guts along almost the entire length of the start finished straight. Following the crash De Puniet was whisked away on a stretcher with a suspected broken foot.

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

Preparations for the 2014 MotoGP Championship are well underway, with the first pre-season test at Malaysia’s Sepang circuit complete. As the first test of the year, we shouldn’t take too much stock into the results, but they do provide a basis for later comparison. Reigning World Champion Marc Marquez was the fastest rider on all three days of the Sepang test.
