Honda CB description

Original and unrestored 1972 Honda CB175 with 2600 miles. I bought the bike three years ago, did a basic tune up and rebuilt the carburetors. Since then, I rode it for a little bit around town and put around 300 miles. I do not use it much, so I am selling it. The bike is quite presentable and looks nice. I have kept it original and, since my ownership, there have not been any modifications. Most of the work done to the bike is cosmetic, polishing the fenders, cleaning up parts and repainting others. There are a couple of dents on the gas tank and a few scratches on the air filter covers, but nothing major that requires immediate attention. This is a 44 year old bike, a true classic that would benefit from some care and attention. There are no warranties and the bike is sold ‘as-is’. Please, ask any questions before bidding. Sensible offers will be considered. More pictures can be sent upon request. Buyer is responsible for shipping but I can assist the shipper of your choice $500 deposit upon purchase of bike. Final payment either via Paypal or personal check. Clear NC title. Owner's manual and tools included *If you need more pictures or want to see a video of the bike running, please let me know Replaced -air filters -turn signal lenses -clutch cable -turn signal/horn switch assembly -taillight lens Repainted -taillight mounting bracket -chain guard -tool box Rebuilt -carburetors -petcock Known issues Mufflers have been patched but they work fine. Bike is sometimes hard to start especially when battery is low. Kill off switch does not work (it was like that when I bought the bike). It leaks a tiny bit of oil when sitting for too long. The turn signals are very slow.

2013 Honda CB500F, CB500X and CBR500R Recalled in Australia

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

Honda has recalled its 2013 CB500F, CB500X and CBR500R models in Australia because of a defect that could cause an oil leak. At the moment, no recall has been announced for the U.S., though there is a good possibility one will be announced shortly, as all 500-series models are manufactured in the same Honda factory in Thailand. There is a similar recall for the Japanese market for the CB400F, CB400X and CBR400R, which are mechanically identical to Honda’s 500-series models, but with a smaller engine to meet the country’s tiered licensing requirements.  According to the Australian and Japanese recall notices, the rocker arm shaft sealing bolt may come loose, causing oil to leak from the engine.

Gresini Unveils 2012 MotoGP and Moto3 Honda Race Bikes

Tue, 13 Mar 2012

Last season, Alvaro Bautista rode on one of the best looking motorcycles on the MotoGP grid, the Suzuki GSV-R in Rizla powder blue livery by Troy Lee Designs. This season, Bautista is riding the Gresini Honda RC213V, but instead of its previous white paint job, the Gresini machine is in a sleek black. No reason for the color change was announced, though it’s possible the choice is a sign of mourning for the late Marco Simoncelli whose place Bautista is assuming with Gresini.

2013 AMA Supercross Anaheim 2 Race Report

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Ryan Villopoto claimed his first win of the 2013 AMA Supercross season and his first since the knee injury at last year’s Seattle round that kept him out of the 2012 AMA Motocross championship. The victory in front of 37,789 fans at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, Calif., made up for his disappointing 16th place finish two weeks earlier at the same site. His Monster Energy Kawasaki teammate Jake Weimer held the early advantage in the main event, taking the holeshot ahead of the Honda Muscle Milk duo of Justin Barcia and Trey Canard.
