1994 Honda CB

Clear

Here is a fairly rare bike, only imported to the US in 1994 and 1995, more popular in Europe and sold there until 1998. This was Hondas answer to the naked standard or street fighter muscle bike market-basically a retuned CBR1000 with a more upright riding position and a 5 speed transmission geared for quick acceleration. Only real issue for a 20 year old bike is the speedometer stopped working last fall-never bothered me enough to fix it-might have 500 to 1000 miles than it shows max. Starts right up and runs great-stops great-rides great-no issues with carbs or gearbox-clutch is smooth and strong-shifts like butter. Cam chain tensioner has been serviced and valves adjusted so no rattle or tap. No smoke at all even at start up. This bike is a blast through the gears up to as fast as you can hang on...top speed probably 140 period tests have 1/4 mile at mid 11's and 117 mph-brakes are strong and progressive-current tires are way better than were available new and it handles very well for it's size and weight-helps if you are big too-I am just under 6 feet and fits me ok but 6' plus guys will have plenty of room and an easy reach to the bars. Great pull from above idle-really strong from 6000 to redline. Previous owner sprayed the tank satin black and a definite rattle can job...said his tank bag marked up the tank-whatever-looks kind of cool-rear fender was cut to give a sportier look, has Rizoma grips and Piazzo levers. Came with little bar end mirrors that will go with the bike-clutch side bar end fell off at some point-bar ends are NOT Rizoma-probably explains why it fell off...P O removed center stand and I do not have it. P O also fitted the smaller turn signals, newer tires, and Yoshimura slip on muffler-sounds nice not loud. He also rebuilt the forks and put in progressive springs-original separate reservoir shocks are in good condition. Rims are original 18 inch and yes they still make tires to fit-someone was a bit rough with them at some point on a tire changes as they are scratched up on the edges. Chain and sprockets still have some life but chain is near stretch limit. Feel free to ask questions...bike will come with a factory service manual. Sold as is where is.
