1978 Honda CB

Clear

***Attention Collectors and beginners! 1978 Honda Hawk*** This is the PERFECT beginner motorcycle for your wife or for the first time rider. Lightweight, easy to handle, low seat height, so easy its like riding a bicycle with less effort! A comparable NEW bike will cost you more than three times as much as what you can get into this one for. Front and rear disc brakes, automaic tranny, new tires, quiet and fast. When the Hawk II hit the American road, 400cc high performance took on a whole new meaning. Never prior to 1978 had a production motorcycle offered comparable performance and technology. With its revolutionary big-bore, ultra-short-stroke engine and three-valve Pentroof head, the Hawk II produces a whopping 39 horsepower and over 22.7 lbs.-ft. of torque (SAE net). It’s quick and fast. More so than you might expect from a mid-range four-stroke. Very fairly priced classic motorcycle! And..., it's a much better bike that will never go down in value! This is one awesome motorcycle and one of Honda's most dependable bikes ever made! Hit the electric start, lift up on the shifter pedal (2 gears only), twist the throttle, and off ya go. No clutch-FULLY automatic except for the toe shift part. This baby rocks too for what it is. Very smooth, very comfortable, low-seat height, perfect for the beginner or just a city cruiser. Light enough to hang on the back of your RV as well. 70 MPG at 70 MPH all day long! Tires are new, seat is clean and plush, fresh tune-up, worry free riding! Everything works as it should including all electronics, starter, horn, signals, etc... Ready to ride right now, no apologies!

He is very honest, reliable, fast, inexpensive, and easy to deal with.As always, do a pre-inspection of ANY bike you ride or have it inspected prior to riding if you are unfamiliar with motorcycles. I am not desperate to sell, am not a dealer, I don't do this for a living, I'm an enthusiast. If you'd like any detailed photos of a specific area of the bike, just ask! I have many photos of it but will be glad to take more if needed. Please ask any questions you like before bidding. You will be answered quickly and honestly. I will not sugarcoat anything for the sake of a few extra dollars and am not in the business to screw anyone. With all the bikes I own or have owned over the years, I know how disappointing it is when someone over-sells a bikes condition so you may be sure I won't do that to you. I have disclosed and will gladly provide photos of all known defects for your inspection. Deposit is non-refundable so be sure before you bid.
