1965 Honda Cb 160 Fully Restored Honda Cb, Cl, Cafe Racer on 2040-motos

Honda CB description

For your consideration is my fully restored 1965 Honda CB160 with 1163 original miles. This is a full nut and bolt restoration and took many years to complete and 98% of the parts used are new old stock genuine Honda parts. I can not begin to tell you how beautiful this Honda CB160 is in person. It's almost too nice to ride in my opinion and should go to a collector or museum. This bike fire up with a kick or two and runs like a clock and shifts through all four gears flawlessly. The electric start is not hooked up at this time so I have no idea if it works. Other than that this bike is just like new and will be very hard pressed to find another in this condition. A lot of time, cash, effort, blood sweat and tears went into this meticulous restoration  and it really shows. The only things not original on this bike are the beautiful aluminum wheels, grips, ignition wires, coil, and some nuts and bolts. The frame, swing arm, forks, headlight bucket, and chain guard have all been stripped and professionally painted and matched to an unopened can off genuine Honda red paint from 1965. The grey/silver paint on the side covers and front fender was matched to a new old stock rear fender. Every piece of aluminum was completely polished to a mirror finish and looks awesome. The VIN # is B160-1009958 and the engine # is B160E-1009968. The engine has been completely rebuilt using all Honda parts by a Vintage Advantage a well known shop. Some of the parts that went into this bike cannot be found at any place at any cost. Basically this bike looks and rides like new and will be sure to impress even the most discriminating buyers. This bike has been resting in my wife's foyer so it has been kept in a climate controlled environment (this drove her nuts)!!!  Here's a short list of some of the parts.

All of these parts are new old stock.

New complete seat

Rear shocks, forks/springs (all new suspension) 

Rear fender

Complete exhaust system (bought 20 years ago in the original boxes)

Honda B spokes (last ones ordered in the Honda data base)

All cables and rubber pieces

Chain, sprockets, battery box

Headlight, wiring, and many nuts and bolts that have been chromed, polished or replaced

New Honda clutch, valves, guides, springs and much more

Stock Honda paint from 1965 to match all body work

I am still waiting on the original mirrors from Bill Silver (they will be included)

I also have a service manual, parts manual and one key

The only items that are not stock are....

New beautiful aluminum wheels

Inove tires 2.50-18 front and rear

Grips, battery, and some nuts and bolts, ignition wires and coil

In the end this has to be one of the finest examples in the country and the only way to find another nicer is to get your time machine fired up and go back to 1965.
