1969 Honda CA 160 dream.
This style of 160 was only produced for 4 years 1966 to 1969.
Has 764 original miles on it . ( not even broke in yet )
HISTORY as I know it
The original owner stopped riding it in 1973 because he could not get it to run .
I found that the ignition coil was defective .
I replaced it with a used coil from a 1969 honda ca 160 .
I rebuild the gas shut off petcock and replaced carb gaskets and new battery..
Rear inner tube was replaced by local honda dealer.
Original narrow white wall 16 inch tires have very slight weather checking .
Original red paint looks really good.
Some of the chrome has minor surface rust. Needs to be cleaned .
Has after market crash bar and turn signals . ( did not come from the factory with these items )
Mirrors are NOT original .
Head light has only high beam or low beam . ( I don't know which )
Seat has small 1 inch tear near the rear .
Mufflers had small rust holes on the bottom at rear .
I made temporary repairs that stopped the leaks .
Can only be seen if you lay down on the ground and look up .
Everything electric works , ( horn , starter , etc. )
Starts instantly with electric or kick .
Has been stored inside all it's life .
Has a clean Michigan title .
Has complete tool kit .
Not perfect but in excellant condition for a 44 year old bike .
Most of the pictures were taken before I did some cleaning . (wheels etc.and polish)
This thing is really fun to ride . It turns heads every where I go .
I can deliver this unit within 200 miles of Battle Creek Michigan for $150.00 .
Any other delivery charges are up to buyer .

Tue, 06 Oct 2009As Honda prepares its new VFR1200 for its official unveiling, the red-wing company has set up a website detailing its long involvement in V-4 engines.

Rather than fielding a 500cc two-stroke engine, Honda used a four-stroke oval-piston V-4 motor – essentially a V-8 with four cylinders that could be revved to 19,500 rpm!
Magneti Marelli to Supply Electronics System to MotoGP Teams
Wed, 26 Sep 2012It’s no secret that promoter Dorna Motorsports has been trying to push a standardized electronics control unit for teams in the MotoGP World Championship.

The manufacturers competing in the series, Honda, Ducati and Yamaha, understandably are resistant to the idea considering the effort they’ve put in to develop their electronics systems.
