Honda CB description

1975 Honda Cb 550, This is truly a one of a kind 1975 Honda CB550k cafe racer. Every part on this bike was carefully selected to try to invoke that classic cafe racer look. The tank was hammered by hand to put in the knee inserts and front dimples. The bump-stop seat is hand laid fiberglass that is a one off part custom made for this project. The seat also serves to hide the battery stored underneath. The old side covers have been removed and the frame de-tabbed. The electronics have been relocated to underneath the seat leaving the triangle area more open. Other notable changes are clubman bars, K&N style pod air filters, brand new but subtle turn signal/horn/headlight switch and on-off/kill switch, LED rear brake light. As for the normal things that a buyer needs to know. This is NOT a project bike. Come on over, crank it up, and away you go! Tires are brand new (less than 100 miles) Avon Roadmasters. New brake pads front and rear. Brakes work great. Engine starts and runs like a dream. Engine does NOT leak oil! The carbs have recently been removed and completely rebuilt and synched. They are properly jetted to accommodate the more open exhaust and pod filters. The kick start and push button start are both fully functional. All of the rest of the electronics are fully functional i.e. horn, headlight, brakes, dummy lights. The 3,000 mile service procedure was just done. I'm sure that I've forgotten some pertinent info so if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me anytime and I will respond in a timely manner. $2,900.00 8649771282

The New Fastest Electric Motorcycle Lap, With John McGuinness + Video

Fri, 06 Jun 2014

Earlier this week, John McGuinness won the single-lap TT Zero electric motorcycle race at the Isle of Man TT aboard his Mugen Shinden San. In the process, the 21-time TT winner smashed the old lap record of 109.675 mph, setting an average speed of 117.366 mph from a standing start. To put that in perspective, McGuinness’ teammate, Bruce Anstey, aboard a sister Mugen, set the outright lap record earlier this week aboard his Honda CBR1000RR superbike of over 132 mph.

A postcard from Moto GP Jerez

Fri, 04 May 2012

If the weather over the Jerez Moto GP weekend was dull then the atmosphere in the press room was the complete opposite.  After the carnage and chaos during the Moto 3 race, the amazing Romano Fenati (in only his second GP) had the Italian journalists celebrating as he crossed the line to win. I smiled as they simultaneously began singing ‘Y Viva Espana’ as if to signify the end of Spanish dominance in the junior GP class.
