Honda CBX description

Here is a fairly rare bike, only imported to the US in 1981 and 1982, Hondas 1st big mistake according to Jay Leno who owns a 1981 in Grey and bought it new! This was Hondas answer to the sport touring market-basically a slightly retuned CBX with a fairing and saddle bags that are detachable. Bike has been to California and back-not a showpiece but a attractive rider that definitely turns heads. Only real issue for a 32 yr old bike is the alternator is not charging-very common on these bikes as they age-I have checked the brushes and they are ok and the regulator has been tried too-must be the stator or rotor? I just charge the battery before I want to ride it and never go more than 50mis so it has the reserve to do that. Shifts well, clutch is good with no chatter pulls well from low rpm-a little sleepy till you hit about 6-7000 then sheer magic to and past the redline if you aren't careful! Like ripping silk just wonderful-nothing sounds like it. Starts right up and runs well-stops attractive rides well-no issues with carbs or gearbox-clutch is smooth and strong-shifts like butter. Cam chain doesn't make excessive noise and no oil leaks, a couple of small seeps. Previous owner replaced exhaust with current MAC setup-decent condition with no leaks and sounds awesome but loud-baffles are in but she screams like a Ferrari at 10,000 rpm-this is what a CBX is all about! Air forks and shocks are in terrific condition and I have not had to add air in the time I have owned it-about 4 mnths or so. Pulling the shock knob out to the firm setting really tightens the bike up like the original testers said. Brakes are ok-back is fine and has a later model rotor-front rotors work fine but are a bit scored up. Rims are original and tires have good tread with just a tiny bit of dry rot. Chain and sprockets still have some life but chain is near stretch limit. Feel free to ask questions...bike will come with a factory service manual. Sold as is where is. I am less than two hours from NYC, 30 minutes from Philly, and two hours from Baltimore Please be serious with your offer-an accepted offer is a contract to purchaseClear MA title signed by PO who had bike for many years-no liens.Local Pickup welcome and encouraged

Postie Bike Challenge [video]

Fri, 19 Jun 2009

The Postie Bike Challenge started in 2002 as a one-off event in Brisbane, Australia to prove that small bikes can travel long distances over both asphalt, dirt, sand, or stony surfaces has turned into a 10-day charity event.  The entry fee is $4,000 but almost everything is taken care of, including: Late model Honda CT110 Postie bike (registered to you!) All breakfasts, lunches and dinners All fuel for the trip One way air ticket back to Brisbane Support truck to carry equipment, clothing bag and mechanics Final celebration dinner and hotel accommodation That’s right, you can keep the Honda CT110 Postie bike (designed for commercial and agricultural, also used by Australia Post) but the concept is to give the bike to charity in your name after the event is over, its up to you but more than 90% of the participants do give the bike back. Hit the jump to see the video and for more info on this years trek. The 2009 Postie Bike Challenge will take place from October 3rd to the 13th and will go from Brisbane to Melbourne, the destination changes every year.  The route taken will be about 2,000 miles (the direct route is about 1,000 miles).  If your interested, get your entry form and deposit in ASAP, last years event was sold out.
