Honda CB description

 This is an older custom job on a 1975 750.  I bought this a short time ago because of the uniqueness of the bike.  This was customized about 30 years ago.  The gentleman that customized and owned it, recently passed away.  I purchased it from his family.  I was going to restore it, exactly the way it is but I'm just too busy and I won't have time for this one for quite awhile.  I'll describe the bike the best that I can.  It is an older restoration.  The paint looks to be lacquer and the tank is beginning to crack.  The tank shows some light scuffs and a couple of small dings.  No major dents.   The side cover have chips and cracks.  The engine runs fine.  The bike shows 20,000 plus miles.   The starter button has been moved to a push button on the tree, opposite the key ignition.  The chrome valve cover is in very good condition as is almost all of the chrome.  The air box was replaced with velocity stacks.  The headers are 4 into one but a little faded and with a dent or two.  I found a baffle for the muffler, which quiets it down considerably.  The clutch engages firmly.  Both tires are newer.   It has rear turn signals but removed from the front. This is a nice bike, runs good, could use paint and turn signals for safety.  I took it for a short ride and it runs fine.  But like most bikes that have been sitting for awhile, it should be gone over.  I changed the plugs but will clean the carbs before the auction ends.  If the auction meets the reserve, I'll send the side covers out to be repaired and repainted.  I will palletize and crate this for shipment for 30.00, which is the price of materials.  I prefer local pick up.  Ask any questions, it might take a day or two to respond.  If the bike doesn't sell, it's going to be sent out to be repainted.

Honda’s New Documentary: Dreams vs Nightmares [trailer]

Wed, 24 Jun 2009

Honda have been releasing video documentaries on… well… everything!  Why?  Well to toot their own horn and remind you that Honda is crazy cool. Actually, their videos aren’t that bad, although somewhat dramatic.  I hunkered down and watched their “Failure: The Secret to Success” video and it held my attention. Their new video is titled “Dreams vs Nightmares”, which features a few notable people such as Clive Barker and Deepak Chopra.  I’m curious to see how they take this theme and use it to show how and why Honda creates and designs the products they make.
