Honda CT description

Hi,

Up for sale is a beautiful 1972 Honda CT.  This motorcycle has 1893 miles and is in great original condition for being 44 years old!!  The paint shines and the chrome is incredible.  It has been kept in my garage for years riding only occasionally.  It is in original condition except for the carb which is aftermarket and working great! The original will be included along with a new battery. This is a blast to drive and gathers tons of attention.  This can be added to your collection or right to the campsite and trails!   It runs very smooth and very strong.  I drove it the other day and hit 40 with a little tail wind behind me.  This CT has a clear title and original key.  It also has original tool kit under the seat.  It does has scratches and some dents and scuffs as expected of a bike this age. I did my best to show close ups.  I put a new throttle cable in but does not always retract fully as it should.  The grab bars are aftermarket but there was no drilling.  Other than carb the motor has never been touched.

I have sold multiple cars and misc items and have received 100% feedback.  Bid with confidence.  This Honda is being sold as is with no warranty.  I will require a 200 non refundable deposit within 48 hours of sale.  Remaining balance due within 7 days.  Shipping is the responsibilty of the buyer.  I will hold the bike for up to 3 weeks if paid in full within terms.  I will help with shipping but ultimately the responsibility and cost is to the buyer.  I will help put on pallet and get to a shipping company if there is one in my city.  Buyer will be responsible for arraning all of this.

Thanks for looking,

Rodney

Schwantz and Mackenzie on the Nurburgring box

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

A 500GP bike never fails to stop me in my tracks and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this Schwantz example from the early nineties, proudly displayed on the Arai stand at the recent Motorcyclelive show.  On loan from Crescent Suzuki and accompanied by a rostrum publicity shot from the 1990 German GP at the Nurburgring, I felt the urge to write a few words on that special weekend. I started the year running my own 250 GP team with fairly standard TZ Yamahas but was drafted in as Kevin Schwantz’s team mate after Kevin Magee suffered a serious head injury at the second Grand Prix in Laguna Seca.  With no testing and some major Spanish food poisoning I finished 8th at the next round in Jerez then followed that up with a 5th place in Misano. Next up was the Nurburgring and after qualifying on the second row of the grid, my crew chief Geoff Crust informed me he had a premonition of a race day rostrum finish. He also told me I better make it come true as he was already looking forward to a few post race celebratory refreshments. While I hoped Crusty was the new mystic meg, the truth was I would have been more than happy to buy the beers if I made it to the flag inside the top five. I had an outside chance of catching one major scalp as Wayne Rainey was riding with a nasty hand injury but I suspected adrenalin would see him through the day. I also followed Mick Doohan a fair bit in practice but he was beginning to find his feet on the Rothmans Honda so was going to be another problem.  When the lights went out Schwantz and Rainey went straight to the front I while I hung in behind Doohan and Pier Francesco Chilli, and then it happened. Coming out of the bottom right hand hairpin, Doohan and Chilli simultaneously high sided in one of the most spectacular crashes of the season. I never liked seeing any fellow riders crash but I made the most of this early race gift and rode my 160bhp/115kg RGV hard to the flag, claiming my first podium of the season.  We partied hard (win or lose we always did) that night and I went on to have my best ever season finishing fourth overall in the championship. After the last round in Australia, I finished second to Kevin at Sugo in Japan then won in Malaysia at another international race that KS didn’t attend. I also tested at Eastern Creek for the following season but then was flicked from the team for reasons that still remain a mystery. Hey Ho!       

2012 Honda Gold Wing Tour: Day 2

Wed, 18 May 2011

Yesterday we told you about a cool ride we’d be taking on the revised 2012 Honda Gold Wing. Our journey began in Lorton, Virginia and included a long stretch of the famous Blue Ridge Parkway. For those who have never visited the BRP, you’re missing a truly fantastic road, rising and falling among gentle mountains packed with foliage.

The Private Life of Dani Pedrosa – Video

Wed, 02 May 2012

Dani Pedrosa is probably the most enigmatic of MotoGP’s “Aliens”. He doesn’t have the charisma of a Valentino Rossi, he doesn’t attract controversy like teammate Casey Stoner, and he doesn’t have the exuberant victory celebrations of Jorge Lorenzo. There’s also a large segment of American fans who still can’t forgive Pedrosa for taking out his teammate Nicky Hayden at Estoril in 2006, almost costing the Kentucky Kid the championship.
