Vehicle Detail

The legendary Red Rocket available for those who lived the way it was back in the day or want to try to re-live those days! This one has had a total professional restoration done including frame + engine + wheels + body completely stripped & rebuilt from the ground up. Starting with the frame it has been sand blasted & repainted with single stage enamel slightly darker than the original Honda red (which was almost orange). The engine was stipped to the bare cases and completly gone through including new bearings, seals gaskets, top end with tight crank rod bearing. Carb was throughly cleaned & tuned, repainted with matching frame color. The chassis has had new swing arm bearing kit installed, repacked steering neck bearings new chain, sprokets, rollers. forks serviced & rear shocked replaced with new Progressive 17.5" series 13, the wheels were stripped and hubs repainted to a low gloss black the relaced with new chrome spoke kits on nice used Takasago rims new brakes, tires, bearings front & rear. The gas tank has no filler in it & its aluminum,the plastics are original & have been refinished with the matching color. Its not perfect but its extremely close. This bike looks amazing and runs just as well if you can use a calculator you would quickly see that there is NO WAY you can possibly build a bike that looks this good & runs this good for what this will sell for The core will cost you $900-1500 the parts will cost you $1000-1500 the 80 hours of labor @ about $50 per hour=$4000 so thats a total of $5900 to $7000 you be the judge! and bid with that in mind. I have completed many other restorations previously here are some examples 1976 Suzuki RM250*** 1969 Hodaka ACE 100*** 1980 Honda CR250*** 1979 Honda CR250*** 1975 Hodaka Road Toad 100cc. Bill of sale will be given the title is as rare as the kick stand its first thing to get lost so there is none nor is there a warranty as there never was from the dealer the day it was sold as a new one. You have 3 days to make full payment & 24hrs to leave a $200 none refundable deposit you can take up to 3 months to pick the bike up. I will be attending the Mid Ohio show in July. I have the right to end auction at my discression at any time. On Apr-28-13 at 20:40:28 PDT, seller added the following information: elsinore72s Store
