Honda CT description

This is a really fine example of this bike. I have been the owner since 1968, but it has been at my fathers house for most of those years in a carriage house. It has new tires and battery, newer wiring, new tail light and signals. It has been tuned up with new plug, new oil and transmission fluid. This bike has not been restored to this nice of condition for a long time. The engine has great compression and can go to 45 miles an hour on flat roads and 55 mph on a down hill. I weigh 270 and it pulls me fine. I'm asking top dollar for this unit because I know the history and have taken good care of the bike. It has a clear title, warranty card and instruction booklet. Bikes this old and in this good of shape are very hard to find. If I don't sell it, that's OK with me. I've put about $500.00 in this bike recently, to get it up to excellent running shape. It starts on the first or second crank and idles very smooth. This is the last time I will list this motorcycle. I can't stress enough that this bike runs great and hasn't run this good for years. The person that restored this bike for me really knew how to fix the issues I had. Because I changed the wiring and the battery regulator, it starts on the first or second kick after sitting for over 10 days or so. Check my feed back. It has not passed from person to person. Most of the miles were on rolling hills of the Gamble estate in Cincinnati. I never really had it on the street that often. The engine has not been taxed at all. I am 60 miles from Knoxville. The buyer is responsible for shipping arrangements if the bike were to be shipped.

Honda VFR1200F – First Impressions

Fri, 23 Oct 2009

Honda’s new VFR1200F in action at Sugo in Japan. UPDATE: 2010 Honda VFR1200F Review -  First Ride Article I’m here at the Sugo Sportsland racetrack in Japan, an odd place for what seems to be a sport-touring machine like the new VFR1200F. But my time at Sugo today was one of the most incredible riding experiences of my career.

Schwantz and Mackenzie on the Nurburgring box

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

A 500GP bike never fails to stop me in my tracks and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this Schwantz example from the early nineties, proudly displayed on the Arai stand at the recent Motorcyclelive show.  On loan from Crescent Suzuki and accompanied by a rostrum publicity shot from the 1990 German GP at the Nurburgring, I felt the urge to write a few words on that special weekend. I started the year running my own 250 GP team with fairly standard TZ Yamahas but was drafted in as Kevin Schwantz’s team mate after Kevin Magee suffered a serious head injury at the second Grand Prix in Laguna Seca.  With no testing and some major Spanish food poisoning I finished 8th at the next round in Jerez then followed that up with a 5th place in Misano. Next up was the Nurburgring and after qualifying on the second row of the grid, my crew chief Geoff Crust informed me he had a premonition of a race day rostrum finish. He also told me I better make it come true as he was already looking forward to a few post race celebratory refreshments. While I hoped Crusty was the new mystic meg, the truth was I would have been more than happy to buy the beers if I made it to the flag inside the top five. I had an outside chance of catching one major scalp as Wayne Rainey was riding with a nasty hand injury but I suspected adrenalin would see him through the day. I also followed Mick Doohan a fair bit in practice but he was beginning to find his feet on the Rothmans Honda so was going to be another problem.  When the lights went out Schwantz and Rainey went straight to the front I while I hung in behind Doohan and Pier Francesco Chilli, and then it happened. Coming out of the bottom right hand hairpin, Doohan and Chilli simultaneously high sided in one of the most spectacular crashes of the season. I never liked seeing any fellow riders crash but I made the most of this early race gift and rode my 160bhp/115kg RGV hard to the flag, claiming my first podium of the season.  We partied hard (win or lose we always did) that night and I went on to have my best ever season finishing fourth overall in the championship. After the last round in Australia, I finished second to Kevin at Sugo in Japan then won in Malaysia at another international race that KS didn’t attend. I also tested at Eastern Creek for the following season but then was flicked from the team for reasons that still remain a mystery.

“The Retriever” is Swedish for Tow Bike

Wed, 22 Oct 2008

The Honda GL1800 Goldwing may be a versatile vehicle, but a Sweden based company has developed theirs to be something much different; a recovery vehicle. According to their site, the process takes less than 90 seconds with a single operator using the handheld remote control. The bike can allegedly be driven like any other motorcycle when you are not towing a car behind you.
