Honda CB description
|
Here is a very nice, all stock, 1976 Honda CB550. I bough this bike from it's original owner a few years ago. It had been sitting in a shed covered since the late 80's. I know the entire history of the bike. I will supply the buyer a copy of the original title from 1976.
The bikes runs and rides very well, just like it should. Everything works as it should mechanically and electrically; lights, brake light, blinkers, horn, neutral and dash lights, except the start button in the handlebar. The starter itself does work, and I tested it, (you can jump the solenoid with a screwdriver) it's just the button in the hand control. I simply haven't had the time to get to a swap meet to find a replacement. The bike kickstarts easily, so it was never a big priority. To get it back in commission, I did a full mechanical on it. Oil and filter were changed (genuine Honda used), front caliper was rebuilt and brake was flushed, the wheel and neck bearings were repacked, and I installed new tires (had originals) on it. All 4 carbs were rebuilt, tuned and sync'd. The inside of the tank is in excellent shape, as it was drained and the bike was filled with fresh oil before he quit riding it. The points and timing were adjusted to factory spec per the manual. The bike is all original paint and finishes, with many of the factory yellow markings still on the bike. I have not polished or waxed anything, so it has a nice ridden patina to it. The exhaust is factory original, and there are a couple small holes in the mufflers bodies themselves. It does not affect the sound as far as I can tell. The gauges are not faded like most of this vintage, and look awesome. The original tool kit is under the seat. As expected with a 40 year old ridden bike, there are some minor cosmetic imperfections, chips, scrapes, scratches, etc. But overall, this is a very nice rider class bike. The tank has a couple minor dents, and a bit of the paint on the top of the tank has a discoloration. It can all clearly be seen in the photos. Here is a video of it starting/running and testing the systems: https://youtu.be/v_39TK8nr5o Bike has a clean Minnesota title, and MN collector plates. I will leave the plates on if it is sold in MN. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I can help assist with pickup or shipment, but I'm not going to deliver or crate it for nothing. I do have it for sale locally, so I reserve the right to remove the listing. |

Pulling the pin ...
Mon, 15 Nov 2010WARNING: Not for the squeamish. You're looking at surgeons removing a pin from Ten Kate Honda man Jonathan Rea's wrist. The World Superbike frontrunner underwent surgery after sustaining fractures during a fall in qualifying at Imola, which hampered the Irish racer's end of season performance.
EICMA 2013: 2014 Honda VFR800F
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Gracing the new 2014 VFR800F is traction control, ABS, heated grips, adjustable seat height and self-canceling blinkers. The V-Four-powered machine has been re-tuned for greater low and mid-range torque, and also receives a new telescopic fork, Pro-arm swingarm, wheels, new, slimmer bodywork and styling. Starting with the 782cc V4-VTEC engine, Honda engineers focused mainly on cam timing and valve duration/overlap to increase low-to midrange power and torque, claiming 104.5 hp @ 10,250 rpm and 55.4 ft-lbs of torque @ 8,500 rpm. Bore and stroke is 72mm x 48mm, with compression ratio of 11.8:1. VTEC valve timing still operates one pair of inlet/exhaust valves per cylinder at low rpm, and then switches to four as revs rise. Honda’s single-mode Traction Control System (TCS) is fitted as standard equipment and is operated from the left handlebar.
