He's not too eBay savvy so he asked me to help him.This is a two owner bike he is owned it for approximately the last four years, he's had it serviced at the carbs rebuilt jetted in sink, the only thing that is not stock is the rear shock which has a very pricey upgrade Ohlins this bike is ready to go and enjoy cosmetically it's very nice except for a small dent on the right side of the gas tank please look at all photos carefullyI have taken the liberty of copying pasting some information about this bike from Wikipedia The Honda CB-1 is a small, light naked sport bike with a 399 cubic centimetres (24.3 cu in) straight-four engine, carrying the model code NC27. In contrast to other models of the Honda CB series, the name is written with a hyphen. In some countries it was marketed as Honda CB400F.The bike was first introduced in 1989 and built until the end of 1990. Originally developed for the Japanese market, the CB-1 was also officially sold in the USA and Canada. Called a "great motorcycle that never found an audience" and "victims of a difficult market" byCycle World, the final model year 1990 CB-1s available as leftover stock were offered in 1992 at a $600 discount, for $3700 in the US, which in current money would be $6,218 accounting for inflation.[2]The CB-1 engine is similar to the early NC23 models CBR400RR,[1] with changes to the port lengths and angles as well as smaller valves and lower compression ratio; changes in the primary and secondary gear ratios reduced the 60 mph (97 km/h) first gear down to around 30 mph (48 km/h), making the slightly less powerful CB-1 feel much quicker from a standstill than its sportier sibling, All engines derived from the NC23 block carry the NC23 ID code in the engine number; this includes the NC27, 23, 29, 31 etc., including the VTEC models with chain driven cams. Like many of its stablemates, the CB-1 has straight gear-driven dual camshafts with self-silencing gears to reduce whine.Cycle World measured the acceleration from 0 to 1⁄4 mile (0.00 to 0.40 km) as 13.17 seconds at 99.16 miles per hour (159.58 km/h) and a top speed of 118 miles per hour (190 km/h)[1] Braking distance from 60 to 0 miles per hour (97 to 0 km/h) was 124 feet (38 m).[1] — saying the bike was "a reincarnation of the standard motorcycle ... the sort of bike everyone rode before sporting riders went replica racer crazy.[1]I will ship anywhere in the United States and worldwide and will assist in setup, pick up and/or delivery to any California portif you have any questions please contact me at 209-204-2239Phil
