Clear

1960 HONDA CA95. ORIGINAL, UNRESTORED BIKE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, RUNS AND RIDES GREAT, CLEAN CLEAR PA TITLE IN MY NAME, AMCA SENIOR 1st PLACE WINNER (ORIGINAL CATAGORY). PINK PAINT IS ORIGINAL AS ARE THE HONDALINE VINYL SADDLEBAGS, AND LUGGAGE RACK. MANY EARLY HONDA FEATURES:CONVEX REARVIEW MIRRORSSTAR CUT CABLE ADJUSTERSBRASS NAME TAG ON ENGINEBENLY TANK BADGESCHROMED BRAKE HUB LEVERSSPLIT CROWNED HARDWAREYAZAKI SPEEDOMETERSMALL SIZED TAIL LIGHTSHORT FENDER STRUTSNO HONDA BADGING I'M SURE THAT I'M FOORGETING OTHER THINGS, BUT IT'S AN ALL ORIGINAL 1960 HONDA. TAG ON WIRING HARNESS READS 1/60 (JAN 1960), SO IT'S AN EARLY 1960 MODEL. BIKE HAS BEEN PERSERVED, CHROME ON THE WHEEELS, EXHAUST, AND ON SOME OTHER SPOTS THAT WAS TO BADLY RUSTED WAS PAINTED OVER WITH SILVER PAINT, THIS IS A MINOR DEDUCTION IN AMCA JUDGING (1/2 POINT) BECAUSE IT IS CONSIDERED PRESERVATION, AND IS REVERSABLE. VIN IS A010173, ENGINE NUMBER IS CA95E A010178, OFF BY ONLY 5 NUMBERS, VERY EARLY. BIKE RUNS AND RIDES GREAT, BOTH 6 VOLT ELECTRIC START AND KICKER WORK AS THEY SHOULD, TRANS IS STRONG. BIKE SMOKES WHEN COLD, BUT CLEANS UP REALLY NICELY ONCE WARMED UP, EVERYTHING WORKS. TIRES AND BATTERY WERE REPLACED DURING THE PERSERVATION AND ARE STILL IN LIKE NEW CONDITION. INCLUDES ORIGINAL IGNITION KEY. BIKE DOES NOT BURN OR LEAK ANY OIL. BIKE SHOWS NORMALLY EXPECTED PATINA FOR AN UNRESTORED 1960 HONDA MOTORCYCLE, THIS BIKE MUST BE KEPT ORIGINAL, THERE JUST AREN'T TOO MANY ORIGINAL, RUNNING, UNRESTORED 1960 HONDAS LEFT, ESPECIALY IN "TOKYO ROSE" PASSIONATE PINK FACTORY ORIGINAL PAINT. BIKE IS CURRENLY REGISTERED, INSURED, FULLY STREET LEGAL, AND I RUN IT AROUND MY NEIGHBORHOOD ABOUT ONCE A MONTH TO KEEP IT IN GOOD NICK. RESERVE IS VERY REASONABLE, AND THOUSANDS BELOW WHAT I PUT INTO IT. SOME OF THE PICTURES ARE FROM BEFORE THE PRESERVATION WAS COMPLETED, I THINK YOU'LL BE ABLE TO TELL WHICH ONES.
