Honda CBX description

FOR SALE: 1979 RED Honda CBX. In excellent condition. I bought this bike in June of 1996 with 9579 mile on it. In the Spring of this year I purchased the new Honda 2013 CB1100, and sold my 1980 Honda CBX to make room for the new bike. As I like this new bike so much, my plan for next Spring is to buy the 2014 CB1100 in black, hence my reason for selling the 1979 CBX.

Upgrades on the CBX include: Stainless steel brake lines; Pingle Petcock: Corbin Seat: Dynatec coils and ignition: Ohlins Piggyback shocks put on a couple of months ago.: Honda line engine crash bars: A rare rear carrier  made specifically for the early CBXs. 

In 2011 new valves and valve guide seals plus front fork seals were put in the bike by (in my humble opinion) the very best CBX mechanic in the USA, Preston Marks in Florida. Along with this work carburetors were cleaned and the ignition checked. Receipts from this work will be included with the bike.

Included with the sale of the bike are the following: The original tool kit and owners Manual, plus workshop manual and a copy of the parts book.

At 25609 miles a new Metzeler  front tire and Avon rear tire were put on the bike. In June 2011 a new battery was installed.

The bike starts, idles and runs very well.

There is no rust in the tank; there are no dents or scrapes on the tank but there are some paint blemishes on the tank. Please see the pictures. 

This bike is located in the Asheville WNC area.

For more information call 828 650 9477.

2014 Honda CTX700 Recalled in Canada for ABS Issue

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Transport Canada announced a recall for the new Honda CTX700 because of a manufacturing error in its anti-lock braking system. The Canadian recall applies to both the CTX700N and the partially-faired CTX700T (known simply as the Honda CTX700 in the U.S. market and other markets.) According to the recall notice, the ABS modulator may have been manufactured incorrectly and could potentially fail, allowing the front and/or rear wheels to lock up under heavy braking, increasing the risk of a crash.

Suzuka Eight Hour capers

Mon, 05 Sep 2011

Chatting to TT legend John McGuiness recently about his first Suzuka Eight Hour experience got me thinking of a few capers the boys and me managed a few years back at what is still Japan's most important race of the season. It is a unique event that starts at 11am and finishes at 7pm making  it a pukka endurance race as the last hour is run with headlights on in the dark. It is essentially an eight hour sprint that showcases the trickest endurance machinery and manufacturer’s sales can be affected the following year depending on who wins or loses.
