Honda CB description

Offering this Rare 1983 Honda CB1100F Supersport in near mint condition. Stock engine, carbs & airbox. Perfect gas tank and side covers, excellent tail section and front fender. Very good solid stock exhaust. Rebuilt stock Keihin carbs with new Honda NOS floats, tuned and sychronized, New NOS Honda grips, new air filter, new NGK plugs and NGK wires. Runs very strong, and has HUGE torque down low and in the middle, with a clean throttle response everywhere right up to redline. No leaks, and no smoke! Gearbox and clutch are smooth and solid. Wheels are in excellent condition, and brakes work correctly with good power and no drag.

Honda offered this model one year only in '83 as the ultimate evolution of the big air-cooled Twin Cam Honda Fours of the 750F, 900F, 1100F Supersport line. It was a last hurrah really, as the new V-4 Honda's with liquid cooling would be replacing the air cooled inline fours in '84. This bike was converted early in it's life to the standard round headlight style offered in the UK, and in other markets. I don't have the fairing and square headlight. Odometer reads 16987, but can't be verified.

Flaws are few, but I will note them. The seat cover has a small split that hasn't grown, but would need to be re-covered to be perfect. There is is a split in the front fender and light fading, it would need a repair and repainting to be perfect. The tail section has a small place where the decal has been rubbed off, and has light fading. It would need to be repainted with a new decal set, and then cleared over, which the factory neglected to do. None of these flaws are very noticeable, and everyone is always amazed at the bikes age and condition, but I want to disclose them nonetheless.

Clean title in hand.

Questions are welcome. Thanks for looking!

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'.

Winter may be here but I seem to be as busier than ever, maybe the economy is finally turning around. At my last UK track day of the year I had some fun testing this little beauty.  It’s a late eighties NS400 triple bored out to 475cc and it felt sweet as I zinged round the GP Arena track at Silverstone.   Being stripped bare to reduce weight gives it a very respectable power to weight ratio which means it could live with 600s (on the twisty bits at least).

New Honda Fury TV Spot is Scary [Video]

Thu, 28 May 2009

Ok, it’s not THAT new… Somehow it slipped passed me back in April.  I guess I was too busy watching people do wheelies on scooters. The new 2010 Honda Fury TV spot has a lot of quick edits of intense scenes including a shark jumping up at your face and various animals and people screaming at you.  Let’s not forget the dude getting punched in the face and people getting blown around by a tornado. Ya, it’s INTENSE and kind of scary.  You don’t see too much of the bike except for it standing stationary near the end.
