1979 Honda CB

Clear

FOR THOSE OF THE PURE IN HEART HERE IS A 1979,.....99% ORIGINAL VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE, NICELY STORED WITH ONLY 4700 MILES. THE BEST THING ABOUT THIS BIKE, IS THAT IS IS AN ORIGINAL -UNMOLESTED FACTORY BIKE! THE ONLY ITEMS NON ORIGINAL ARE THE MIRRORS THAT CAME FROM THE FACTORY, AND OF COURSE THE BATTERY. THE BEST PART IS, I HAVE THE ORIGINAL MIRRORS FOR YOU. ONE IS IN PERFECT SHAPE, WHILE THE OTHER NEEDS A NEW GLASS FACING. (SOMETHING YOUR LOCAL GLASS SHOP CAN RESTORE FOR YOU AT A MINIMUM COST.)THE CURRENT MIRRORS ARE OFF OF A 1986 HONDA, SO THEY JUST LOOK A LITTLE MORE MODERN. THIS BIKE APPEARS TO BE UNMOLESTED, ADULT RIDDEN, AND NEVER DROPPED. I PICKED IT UP FROM A FRIEND OF MINE WHO WAS SEEMINGLY THE SECOND OWNER OF THE BIKE. THE TANK HAS A SMALL NICK IN THE PAINT, AS WELL AS PART OF THE ORIGINAL DECAL STICKER MISSING. CHECK OUT HOW CLEAN THE TANK IS! MY FRIEND BOUGHT THIS BIKE, BECAUSE HE USED TO HAVE ONE JUST LIKE IT, BEFORE HE GOT MARRIED 30 YEARS AGO. SINCE HE HAS OWNED IT, HE ONLY RODE IT ABOUT 200 MILES. HE DID HOW EVER KEEP IT METICULOUSLY CLEAN, AND COVERED IN HIS DRY GARAGE. THE MIRROR GOT CRACKED BECAUSE ONE OF HIS YARD TOOLS FELL ON IT. THIS BIKE APPEARS TO HAVE NEVER BEEN DROPPED!! WHEN I GOT IT, I EXPECTED TO HAVE TO PULL OFF THE CARBS AND CLEAN THEM. BUT TO MY AMAZEMENT, ALL I REALLY HAD TO DO WAS INSTALL A FRESH BATTERY, AND SOME FRESH GAS. YOU SEE, MY FRIEND WAS ONE OF THE FEW MOTORCYCLE OWNERS WHO ACTUALLY READ UP ON HOW TO STORE A BIKE WHEN NOT RIDING IT. (PRETTY RARE HUH?) THIS BIKE IDLES AND RUNS GREAT. SHIFTS SMOOTHLEY THROUGH ALL FIVE GEARS. NICE ACCELERATION, AND HOLDS IT'S OWN IN TRAFFIC OR EVEN THE HIGHWAY. HERE IS THE COOL PART,... PULL THE CHOKE, TURN ON THE KEY, HIT THE START BUTTON, AND SHE STARTS IN A HEARTBEAT! I NEVER OWNED A CM400 BEFORE, UNTIL I GOT THIS ONE. I DID HAVE SEVERAL HONDA 360'S. THIS BIKE SEEMS JUST AS NICE AS THOSE, BUT HAS A LITTLE MORE PEP. IF THIS WERE A HONDA 360, YOU WOULD HAVE TO SPEND UPWARDS OF $4000.FOR A SIMILAR BIKE IN THIS CONDITION. WHY???, BECAUSE PEOPLE GO BACK TO THEIR YOUNG RIDER YEARS AND MODELS OF BIKES THEY OWNED WHEN THE WANT TO BE NOSTALGIC. THE CM400 WAS A PRE QUALIFIER FOR THE CM450 HONDA REBEL, AND NOT TOO MANY OF THEM WERE SOLD. I AM SELLING THIS ONE, BECAUSE I JUST WANTED TO HELP OUT MY BUDDY. HE TRANSFERED THE TITLE INTO MY NAME, AND ASKED ME TO TAKE CARE OF IT FOR HIM. SO, I AM THE LEGAL OWNER, WITH A CLEAR TITLE. I JUST SO HAPPEN TO HAVE TOO MANY BIKES RIGHT NOW, AND FIND THAT I CANT STAY AWAY FROM FALLING IN LIVE WITH THE NICE ONES. IF YOU COULD SEE IT IN PERSON, YOU WOULD SEE WHAT I SAW IN PERSON. PICTURES DO NOT DO THIS ONE JUSTICE, BUT AFTER YOU OWN IT, TAKE IT FOR A RIDE,... YOU WILL LOVE IT TOO! PLEASE,PLEASE, TAKE NOTE;THIS BIKE IS LOCATED IN BEREA, OHIO ( A SUBURB OF CLEVELAND)IT'S OK TO BID ON IMPULSE, AS LONG AS YOU REALIZE THAT IF THE WINNER,... YOU DO OWN THE BIKE. ALL THAT BEING SAID,GOOD LUCK TO YOU IN THE AUCTION!PLEASE PLAN ON PICKING IT UP WITH IN A WEEK OF WINNING!
