Honda Z50 description
1979 Honda Z50R. The bike was taken completely apart and sanded and repainted. Many of the bolts, nuts and washers were replaced. The front shocks were removed and repacked with grease. The front stem was repacked with grease. The engine will start when you coast it in gear but unable to start from the kick start because what i believe is from low compression. I was able to coast start the bike going down a hill and shift the bike through the gears which all seem to work well going in and out of gear. The bike does start when coast starting but doesn't run smooth. I repainted the entire bike but am not a expert painter. Listed below is the new parts and the items I believe will need replaced or fixed to make the bike an everyday rider.
New Items New tires front and rear with new inter tubes - still have the nubs New front and rear fender - fit great and are mount securely New Brakes front and rear New front brake cable New points - set to OEM specs New stator New condensor New Ignition coil New seat cover - fits great New factory Honda side cover New Carb New Carb filter and housing New Mushroom Grips New dust covers on the front shocks New stop switch Changed and flushed the engine oil Items that need attention: Chain guard - currently not one on the bike Exhaust - has holes, possible JB Weld or a new one on Ebay for $49.00 includes shippig Gas Tank - current one works and doesn't leak but has dents and rust inside the tank. I wet sanded inside the tank and got most of the rust out. Gas cap doesn't sell well and some has come out onto the paint and smeared it. New tank is $69.00 on Ebay and includes shipping. Throttle cable works but is the incorrect one for the bike. $12.00 on Ebay. Engine needs rebuilt. I have tried to list everything I know about the bike so there is no surprises for the new owner. I don't want to be a jerk but have had lately high bidder not pay for there items so the following rules will apply. If you have less than 10 feedback don't bid on this auction, if you have less than 95% positive feedback don't bid on this auction. I will have you bid removed in either situation. Full payment is expected within 24 hours of the auction closing. I am willing to work with your shipper, but bidder is responsible for all shipping cost including shipping/packing/crating. I am willing to deliver the bike 200 miles for an additional $200.00 on top of what the bid ends at. |

The most beautiful race bike ever?
Thu, 06 Oct 2011It was good to see my old HRC team mate Shinichi Itoh making his final Moto GP appearance last weekend at Motegi. At 44 he was a bit off the pace compared to his younger team mates, but that didn't matter as it was a joy just to see him circulating on what I reckon is most stunning GP bike ever. And I gladly braved the pit lane walkabout chaos just to dribble and take a few snaps. Unfortunately he lost the front in one session trashing a complete set of body work but was back in action on race day to grab a few world championship points.
