Honda CB description

This CB 175 is in excellent condition.  Just look at the pictures.  Everything on this motorcycle is original, except the new tires, the Emgo exhaust cans, and the handlebar.  Even the handlebar is an OEM Honda bar for a CB 400F.  The original (taller) bar comes with the bike.  The engine has a new top end with OEM Honda 1 mm over pistons, rings, lapped valves and new guides.  Currently, the original side stand is removed, easily remounted.  I just installed a new battery.  The bike is a true survivor.  The original side covers have no broken tabs.  It even has its original owners manual.  It just turned over 5,600 miles.  I have all my service records logged in the Haynes and factory manuals included with the sale.  All electrics work perfectly.  I use the dependable starter every time, since the kick starter does not quite clear the right aftermarket can.  You get two keys. 

The bike has three minor cosmetic issues.  Very slight mismatched paint on one headlight ear (previous owners repair), light scratches on the right side cover, and light scratches on the right can from the previous owner's discovery that the kick starter wouldn't clear. 

Of course, this is a 44 year old motorcycle, and as such, the sale is final.  It is sold as, where is. No warranty.  I am also listing it locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early.  Happy bidding!

MotoGP to Re-Visit Rookie Rule

Tue, 19 Jun 2012

MotoGP organizers are re-opening discussion for the series’ rookie rule which prevents new riders from entering the series with factory teams. Introduced following the 2009 MotoGP season, the rule was designed to give satellite teams the chance to field young up-and-coming talents  they otherwise wouldn’t have been able to sign. The theory was the rule would protect the satellite teams and spread out the talent pool.

Shunji Yokokawa

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

Honda Project Leader Shunji Yokokawa's first Honda bike was a CB900, which he got when he was a teenager after seeing Freddie Spencer wheeling his way down the Laguna's Corkscrew.Yokokawa has been in the States himself recently, having travelled to the Bonneville Salt Flats to break a world land speed record for a stock 600cc motorcycle.According to the Southern California Timing Association website (you'd have thought the video might have mentioned something about the record?), Shunji was successful in his attempt during August's 'Speed Week', setting an official speed of 170.828mph onboard a CBR600RR.

No snow here folks!

An erratic work schedule combined with a full season of kids racing means, there aren’t many opportunities during the summer months for the Mackenzie family to grab a holiday. Instead, we tend to save our pennies and head off somewhere sunny for Christmas. I love doing this as it shortens the UK winter but more importantly it means I miss the festive frenzy.  I do like Christmas, but I hate how everyone gets caught up in the retail madness that kicks off just before Halloween, then has everyone stressed (and skint)before Santa has even hitched up his sleigh.
