Honda CB description
Up for auction is an unrestored original Vintage 1974 Honda CB125. This bike will come with a free and clear title and also still has the original tool kit. The bike only has 1,563 miles so most of the wear you will see is not mechanical and is cosmetic. The motor starts easy and runs very well. The transmission and clutch work very well and shift through all of the gears smooth and easy. I just recently disassembled the carburetor and ultrasonically cleaned it all out. The inside of the tank was sealed by the previous owner and I think it will need to be done again soon if you plan to drive this regularly. The tires will also need to be replaced if you plan to ride this because they have dry rot and cracking. The chrome has pitting and rust from sitting in storage. The seat is very nice with no rips, holes or tears and the foam is not brittle. The tank is nice but there is a tiny tiny shallow ding on the right top side. All of the electronics work but the blinkers are not working because a bulb is out (I believe that is the reason, otherwise it just needs a new flasher relay). This bike would make a great candidate to do a high end restoration because everything is clean and straight for the most part or just leave it the way it is and have a great driving bike with some patina.
Please take a look at the large pictures and video to get a better idea of condition and email me or call if you have any questions.

Honda reported sales of 4.137 million motorcycles over its first quarter ended June 30, 2014. That represents a 2.0% increase over the results of the same quarter the previous year, which doesn’t sound like much. But then you remember that 2.0% still represents an additional 83,000 motorcycles (including ATVs), such is the scale involved in a company like Honda.
Six more rounds remain in the 2012 AMA Supercross season and the championship is more or less decided. The first third of the season was a thrilling four-man fight for the title. The middle of the season saw contenders drop like flies and now, what looked to be a dramatic battle for the title is shaping up to be a second consecutive AMA Supercross Championship for Ryan Villopoto.
The Davida Jet helmet is a quality piece of kit, made here in dear Old Blighty. I got my hands on one just a few days before I went on the CB1100 launch last week and I thought it suited Honda's big retro perfectly. The lining and finish is superb, with high gloss paint and a padded/quilted leather interior.
