1976 Honda CB

Clear

Up for auction is a 1976 Honda CB500T (Twin). This is an extraordinarily unmolested and stock motorcycle. I originally bought it to do a cafe conversion, but it is such a great bike as it is, I think it deserves to be kept as it is or fully recondition it. Overall Condition: Bike starts and runs fine. Paint is a bit faded, but still shines nicely (after a good buff and wax). Chrome is in good original condition, however, there are some pitting areas, which are being shown in the pictures. Engine is original and leak free, runs good overall and presents rather well. Please take a look at the pictures and feel free to ask any questions prior to bidding. Here is a video of the bike: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B92ceUV7_nI Work Done: Carburetors rebuilt Front Brake master cylinder rebuilt Front Caliper rebuilt New Brake pads New Avon Speedmasters (3.25x19 front and 4.00x18 rear) Replaced light bulbs on all blinker lights and tail light All Chrome polished Paint buffed and waxed Work Needed: Forks will need new seals soon Although not needed, I would do a full tune up (spark plugs, points, plug wires and timing) to be 100% Starter clutch needs attention. Starter works, but it does make unwanted noises from time to time. I start the bike by kicking since it starts right away. Things to point out: This is a 36 year old bike and it is by no means perfect. Chome shines, but there is pitting is several areas (wheels, headers, mufflers, fenders) Paint is faded, but shines and it is original Fuel tank is spotless and the interior is in perfect condition Tailight doesn't work, but brake light does - I'm chasing the issue now and should be sorted by the time auction ends. Blinkers blink 2 times and stop. Tired relay most likely cause. There is a small hole under the right exhaust (see picture) There is a small tear in the seat (see picture) Small ding in front fender (see picture) Front turn signals are not original Clear Washington title with license and tabs good till 2013.
