Honda CB description

I have a 1975 Honda CB550 Super Sport. Tank and side covers is the original paint from the factory, not a respray. The right side cover has a crack which is higlighted in the pictures but has been repaired. One will not noticed unless closely examined. The tank has some paint imperfections which is highlighted in the pictures as well. The engine has a 605 big bore kit. The piston domes are coated with CBC1* thermal barrier and the skirts with DFL1* high pressure dry film lubricant. Coatings assist with less friction and better combustion. 

The head has a Stage 2 MRieck work completed. The work includes: disassemble, inspect, bead blast entire head, porting of head especially around the guide boss and intake floor. The head was resurfaced, Serdi Valve job, kibblewhite springs. 

The engine has a 650 cam for higher lift, better performance over stock 550 cam. Brand new OEM cam chain, new front and rear sprocket. New chain, 650 tachometer to allow proper RPM readings. However it is not hooked up due to running a tach plug. New owner can install a tach cable to use the tachometer. The bike will come with the original tachometer as well. The sprocket cover is an original chromed piece from the 70's. The stator cover and clutch cover is chromed as well. The bike is equipped with 5 ohm Dyna coils, Dyna electronic ignition. HondaMan modern blade fuse box. Rick's new starter solenoid. The bike does come with a MotoGPwerks 4-1 exhaust that has been powder coated internally to preserve longevity of the exhaust. There is a dent in the headers and please examine pics of the dents on the header. The Avon Roadrunner tires were bought last summer. This Honda is equipped with Superbike handlebars, has All Balls tapered neck bearings installed. Hagon rear shocks as well. 

The chrome on the fenders is in great shape. Wiring harness is not hacked up. All turn signals work. Modern flasher upgrade. The original tank has been lined with a Caswell sealer. Overall the bike is in nice shape for a 41 year old bike. 

Please look at all pics to see the flaws. Also PM me and I can share any other info needed. Sale is final, as is, with no return and there is a 500 deposit due when the auction has ended within 12 hours. Buyer is responsible for shipping. I will assist with shipping but only in the extent of being present when picked up by the buyer. Ebay is not allowing me to choose a different shipping option so please contact in regard to shipping. Please check out the video on youtube of the Honda on the Dyno. It tested out at 44hp to the wheel. Stock from the factory is roughly 35 HP.

Start the ultimate project bike

Wed, 17 Nov 2010

The base for the ultimate project bike have appeared online, a Honda RC211V. The adverts consist of the supposedly the frame from Valentino Rossi's championship dominating machine from 2003 on eBay and a frame that comes complete with the sexy V5 engine. The eBay listing is currently at $510 and is literally an incomplete frame with the ad stating that it is the 'unfinished basis of replacement RC211V frame, all made in aluminium with CNC machined parts & high quality welding', the bidding is still under the reserve set by the user.

Top Five Global Motorcycle Companies Ranked

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

- Honda Motor Company Limited - Yamaha Motor Company Limited - Hero MotoCorp Limited - Bajaj Auto Limited - Harley–Davidson Incorporation According to Research And Markets, who bill themselves as “The World’s Largest Market Research Store,” these are the top five companies of the global motorcycle industry, with data collected from 2006 – 2011. The study itself is several chapters deep and must be purchased (you can do so at the link above), but in short, Research And Markets have compiled a study observing the evolving global motorcycle industry, its competitive landscape, and the corporate and marketing strategies adopted by the motorcycle companies as some of the factors to have remarkably impacted the global motorcycle industry dynamics. Developing regions, such as Asia and Latin America, which perceive two-wheelers as a basic mode of transportation, are expected to remain the most promising markets for scooters, light motorcycles, and mopeds.

AMA Pro Racing Announces Basic Twins Flat Track Class for 2014 Season

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

AMA Pro Racing announced a new class for Flat Track racing designed to provide a new stepping stone for up-and-coming Pro-licensed racers, replacing the Pro Singles class in 2014. The new class, to be called Basic Twins, is more or less a revival of the Basic Expert Twins division that ran during the 2007 and 2008 seasons, but dropped when the Pro Singles class was introduced for 2009. The new class will give young racers a chance to showcase their skills on Twins, easing their transition to eventually enter the Grand National Expert Twins class.
