Honda CL description

This is a chance for you to become the owner of a 48 year old 1968 Honda CL77 305cc Scrambler that is well preserved. It is in excellent condition. It is the ultimate barn find. I have owned it for 29 years. It has been stored in a dry and controlled facility. I doubt you will find one this nice except in a museum or a high end collection. Where ever I ride this cycle it gets thumbs up and total attention. The CL77 305cc Scramblers were only made from 1965 through 1968. It has 250 miles on it. The miles are believed to be original, but cannot be verified. It is red and silver. It has no oil or gas leaks. It has the original 305cc OHC wet sump parallel twin, dual carb engine with a 4-speed transmission. It starts right up and runs great. The transmission shifts like new. All electricals (headlight dim/bright, tail light, stop light, spedo light, neutral light, horn) all work on it. It has a new battery in it. It comes with the rare Honda tool kit. The tools are wrapped in the original pouch and are stored in the cycle’s on board tool container. The gas tank, side panels, fenders, and frame are all the original paint. The paint retains its original shine and luster. The front fender has a couple of scratches on it. The gas tank has one small rock chip on the front of it. The engine skid plate is missing. One of the exhaust pipes has a dent in it. The left front upper shock bezel is slightly dented. The tires tread is in excellent condition but they are starting to show sidewall cracking. The rims and handlebars are straight and retain their chrome shine. The spokes are in excellent condition. It has the original shocks and body parts. There is no rust or pitting on this cycle. The seat is like new with no rips or tears. I have the original exhaust pipes “can style” muffler that attaches to the end of the straight pipes. The muffler has a small dent in it. The chrome on the muffler are in great condition. I currently have the rare Snuff-R-Nuts thumb twist exhaust baffles on the end of the exhaust pipes. It has a clean Colorado title. The frame VIN number: CL77-1053570. The engine VIN number: CL77E-1053711. The old Hondas like this are getting more and more difficult to find, especially in this good condition. Their value continues to climb. This will be a cash transaction or an electronic funds transfer transaction only. I do not take PayPal, personal checks, bank checks, or certified checks, etc. No warranty is implied, or stated. No out of the country transactions will be accepted. Any shipping fees are paid by the buyer. I can assist in the securing of a qualified shipper, if needed.

BMW 1000RR and the Honda C70, are they indestructible?

Wed, 20 Apr 2011

I’ve managed 1374 miles on the Michelin Power Pures (mostly on track) and although we’ve had some decent temperatures they still look like new so there’s plenty meat left for another month at least. I’ve been running them at 30psi front and 32psi rear and find they warm up after a few miles but I wouldn’t say the temperature comes any quicker than any of the competition so it has to be four miles before I get brave. I’ve had a few out the seat moments with my BMW but I have got the rear suspension  set pretty hard (8 rebound,8 compression, two turns on pre load) and in slick mode, so 190bhp in first gear at the Knockhill hairpin is always going to be dodgy.

Remember push starts?

Alongside the most stunning collection of race and road bikes at their Motegi museum, next to some race bikes, Honda also has a step by step guide on most aspects of riding. I photographed the wonderful text on push starting but I also have lots of equally hilarious instructions on cornering braking and even what a riders goal should be. Watch this space...... oh, and hopefully see you at the NEC over the next ten days!  

Honda RC-E Electric Sportbike Revealed at 2011 Tokyo Motor Show

Wed, 30 Nov 2011

We’re still waiting for any technical details but here are initial photographs Honda has released of its new RC-E electric sportbike concept at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show. (Updated with six more high-resolution images.) Honda describes the RC-E as an electric version of a supersports bike, claiming a powerful and smooth ride for an electric vehicle within the compact form of a 250cc-class motorcycle. The images clearly show Brembo calipers and Ohlins suspension, and we especially like the LED headlights and the retro styling.
