Honda CB description

Title: 1976 Honda CB500T Café Racer

 

For sale is my black 1976 Honda CB500T Café Racer. After a short warm-up, the bike starts, idles and runs well. Buyer will want to have the carbs cleaned in the winter, but otherwise, it is a solid bike for a 37 year old motorcycle. I purchased the bike without a tachometer on it so the engine mileage is unknown (tachometer states 7K miles). This bike has a clear title.

J&P Cycles® Universal Chrome Shorty Muffler

J&P Cycles® Universal Round Tapered Air Filter

SHORAI Lithium Ion LFX14A5-BS12 battery (purchased 8/2013)

Alternator rebuild done at local Honda dealership (completed 9/2013)

Custom fiberglass seat pan with flat black cushion

Additional Modifications from Stock:

New dash bulbs (all in working condition) and new gas tank seal (purchased 8/2013)

Additional:

There is a small scratch on the rear right seat pan (see photo)

Help settle an argument

I'm happy to admit that I'm a little bit different; I believe that brown is an underused colour in motorcycling and we need to move on from custom café racers and introduce a dustbin fairing craze - you know I'm right. So, as Ben Cope - known around the Visordown office for being rather stubborn - and I were looking over various scooters on the 'net we uncovered the above machine, Honda's Big Ruckus 250. Instantly I thought that the Big Ruckus was absolutely cool, whereas Ben likened it to a 'mobility scooter'.
