1974 Honda

MT2501005122

Clear

This Honda has been in the family since 1976 (second owners) and has spent most of the last 35 years in either a garage or shed. Basically, it has had very little use and has just been sitting. Pretty much everything is original equipment including the tires; they have very good tread left, but probably should be replaced to be safe. The battery and clutch cable has been replaced, the carburetor has been rebuilt, the gas tank drained and cleaned, and the oil changed. Cold, the bike starts with two to three kicks and one kick when it's warm. Lately the bike has been ridden only a few times on very short trips around the block to make sure it is in good running order. Although the bike looks exceptionally clean it does have a few known problems. The fork seals seem to be leaking slightly (fork oil was also changed) and the turn signals need a new relay. The tachometer has recently gotten a little sluggish and a new air filter element is needed. There is no rust on the bike because it has been in a desert climate. Here's a short video clip of the bike in action:
