Honda CB description

Nice little Honda CB550K model. This is the last year that Honda made the CB550K single overhead cam motor. This bike is in nice condition. The worst part of this bike is the seat, it is in bad shape. I was going to recover it but never found the time to do it. This bike rides great, everything on the bike works. Running lights, headlight, both high and low beams, turn signals front and rear, tail light and both front and rear brake lights. The only problem is that the charging system is weak. It does charge the battery but not as high as it should. At 4000RPM the battery is at 12.9 to 13 volts where it should be around 14 volts. Might be the regulator but have not checked it out. It charges enough to ride it. There is a small dent on the left side of the tank near the rear. The starter button cover is missing but the starter does work. The mufflers have a few holes here and there. I have patched them and they sound good. The bike will have to be picked up here in western Michigan. Any questions let me know.

2010 Honda V4 Teaser [video]

Tue, 25 Aug 2009

Based on the concept model unveiled last October at Intermot 2008, the new motorcycle is expected to be a sport-tourer powered by a 1200cc V-4 engine with variable cylinder technology which can allow it to run on only two cylinders to conserve fuel.  There are also rumors that the motorcycle will have a semi-auto gear box which will give the rider the option of going manual or automatic. Honda has a dedicated website for the V4 where you can enter for a chance to win a spot to be one of the first to test drive the new bike, unfortunately, the contest is only open to Europeans. Hit the jump to see the new promo video (you can hear what the motorcycle sounds like!) and an interview with design project leader, Teofilo Plaza.

Jefferies' TT V&M R1 for sale

Tue, 26 Apr 2011

We got a tip-off about a former David Jefferies TT R1 for sale on eBay. The owner says it's from the 1998 TT but I'm pretty sure it was the one he raced in 1999. Here's a little bit more background about the V&M TT effort in 1999: In 1990 Jack Valentine gave up racing to concentrate on running V&M Racing, and after being sacked by Honda at the end of the 1998 season, the team set about to do some giant killing.

Motorcycle Beginner Diary: What I Love About Being a Motorcyclist

Mon, 06 Jun 2011

Hey folks, it’s Dennis here, Motorcycle.com‘s Designated Newbie. As documented in our Motorcycle Beginner articles (and if you haven’t read them yet, check out the Related Reading links below!) we’re taking a look at the new rider experience and what it means to be a motorcyclist. I’ve had a couple of weeks’ worth of riding on the new Honda CBR250R (more on that in our next Motorcycle Beginner article) and so far I’m having a blast.
