Honda Rebel description

 Lovingly restored 1985 Honda Rebel 250 Cruiser.  1985 was the very first year they were offered.  When new, the buyer had two choices of color....red or black.  This one was red and it has been professionally re-painted.  It started out as a "Barn Rescue" for my wife, who had wanted one when they we new.  They couldn't keep them in stock so she bought something off the floor.  When we started riding, she wanted her own so we looked for a Rebel for her to learn on.  By luck, we found a 1985.  I actually was able to ride her (Bike was named "Little Bits") home, but I soon had the carburetor professionally rebuilt.  Since then, the Rebel has run flawlessly.I restored what I could and replaced what I couldn't.  Except for some haze on the transmission cover, the Bike looks brand new.  It rides like she is brand new. If you know Rebels, you know they are not Interstate Bikes.  They are around town and non-Interstate Road Bikes.  This has spent most of the time on the Colonial Parkway around Williamsburg, VA.  It's been on longer trips with no problem, but it has trouble keeping up with the big Harleys. We are selling because my wife has a medical condition that effects her balance and the Doctor told her she can ride behind me, but not on her Bike.  At 6'2", I look like a Circus Bear on a tricycle when I take her to be inspected.  If it is any testament to how well she runs, she sat for over a year without being started (on a battery tender),  She fired-up on the second try!  My 2014 Street Glide won't even do that!! This is a Bike for someone who loves Honda Rebels and is a smaller person.  Bike has a pigtail attached to the battery for a battery tender.  Battery tender is included.  A leather pouch that fits under headlight is also included.  Bike was inspected 06/14/16.  I am asking $2,000.00 obo.

Cool Cycles Ice Cream

Mon, 20 Apr 2009

John Gibson had a vision 15 years ago to sell ice cream from a motorcycle sidecar, inspired while running as he listening to motivational guru, Tony Robins. After years of experimenting with different bikes and setups, including using the Russian made Ural (he once owned a Ural dealership), Gibson, finally settled on the Honda 750 Shadow and the Harley-Davidson 883 Sportster. The Cool Cycles Ice Cream Company is open for business, the headquarters are located in Tacoma, WA where they will start selling franchises within a 100 mile radius, the Los Angeles area will be next and Las Vegas to follow.

Surely more wins are on the cards for Seeley and the 2011 Gixer?

Thu, 02 Jun 2011

The amazing Alex Lowes is deservedly grabbing all the attention in the BSB paddock at the moment, but I believe last year’s top Superbike rookie, Alistair Seeley is doing an equally impressive job in the Supersport class. Although he looks ten years younger, thirty one year old Seeley  is riding one of only two 2011 600 GSXRs (fellow countryman Marty Nutt is on the other) in the class. Alistair has finished on the podium four times including a race win at the opening Brand Hatch round and currently lies second in the championship.  He also took victory on the Gixer in the only race run at the North West 200 last month and was looking like the runaway winner last Sunday at Thruxton until electrical gremlins struck after opening up a seven second lead.

WSBK: 2012 Phillip Island Results – Video

Mon, 27 Feb 2012

Max Biaggi won the opening race to the 2012 World Superbike Championship while defending champion Carlos Checa came back from a high-speed crash in the first race to win the second at Australia’s Phillip Island circuit. Reigning champion Checa of Althea Ducati had a stunning high-side crash while leading on the sixth lap of Race One. The WSBK paddock was already in shock with the death of 17-year-old Oscar McIntyre in the Superstock 600 race the day before but thankfully Checa was not seriously injured.
