1981 Honda CB

UP FOR BID IS THIS 1981 HONDA CB 900 CUSTOM. THIS BIKE IS IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE READY TO RIDE FOR THE MOST PART. IT COMES WITH SEVERAL EXTRA PARTS. THESE CB BIKES ARE REALLY SMOOTH RIDING BIKES AND THIS 900 HAS PLENTY OF POWER FOR ANY SANE PERSON!! THEY HAVE A TWO STAGE TRANSMISSION FOR IN TOWN AND HIGHWAY, ITS REALLY COOL. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE AFTER THESE TO CHOP LOOK ONLINE TO SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH THEM. THEY CAME BOTH STREET AND TOURING FROM THE FACTORY SO YOU CAN EASILY FIND LUGGAGE AND TOURING ACESSORIES FOR THEM. AT ONE TIME I HAD THIS ONE FOR STREET AND ANOTHER FULL DRESS FOR THE ROAD. I HAVE HAD THIS FOR 4 SEASONS NOW STARTS EVERY YEAR (a little cold blooded but they all are). I RODE IT 500 MILES VERTUALLY NON STOP LATE LAST FALL BEFORE I PARKED IT BUT HAVE ONLY STARTED IT AND RODE AROUND THE BLOCK A COUPLE TIMES THIS YEAR TO KEEP IT SOUND.I BOUGHT ANOTHER BIKE THIS SPRING AND DIDNT PLATE THIS ONE. WIFE SAYS I CAN ONLY RIDE ONE AT A TIME!! I REALLY LIKE THIS BIKE AND WOULD LOVE TO KEEP IT AND TRICK IT OUT HOWEVER REALITY SAYS IT HAS TO GO!! THE TANK ON THE BIKE IS A CUSTOM FLAME JOB I BOUGHT ON EBAY. IT WAS REALLY SWEET TILL THE KIDS KNOCKED IT OVER NOW IT HAS A DENT(pictured) AND A SMALL CHIP BY THE PETCOCK. I PUT EURO BARS (straight bars waith just a little pull back) ON IT. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL TANK (pictured) AND HANDLE BARS.THE PIPES ARE CUSTOM AFTERMARKET AND SOUND ABOUT AS GOOD AS A 4 CYLINDER CAN. DEEP TONE WITHOUT BEING OBNOXIOUSLY LOUD.SOUNDS LIKE A MOTORCYCLE NOT A HOPPED UP SEWING MACHINE.IT HAS AIR SHOCKS. IT WILL NEED ONE OF THE SEALS REPLACED SOON , I HAVE THE REPLACEMENT. THE SIDE COVERS ON THE BIKE ARE THE ORIGINAL ONES. THEY BOTH HAVE SMALL CRACKS AND ARE SPRAY PAINTED BLACK. I BOUGHT REPLACEMENTS ON EBAY (pictured, around $50 each) I PLANNED TO HAVE IT ALL REPAINTED WITHOUT LOSING USE OF THE BIKE DURING THE PROCESS.BOTH TIRES SRE GOOD. THE SEAT HAS A SMALL TEAR (pictured, also from the fall). I HAVE THE CB900 EMBLEMS FOR THE SIDE COVERS. I ALSO HAVE ANOTHER FRONT BREAK ROTOR AND ANOTHER FUSE BOX FOR IT. THE BATTERY IS WEAK AND NEEDS REPLACED. IT IDOLS HIGH WHEN HOT BUT IT DIDNT BOTHER ME SO I NEVER INVESTIGATED WHY. THE STARTER CLUCH SLIPS OCCASIONALLY AND WILL PROBALLY NEED REPLACED SOME DAY (about $50 on ebay) AN EASY FIX. I HAVE THE SHOP MANUEL !! A REAL PLUS IN MY BOOK !! ALSO PARTS ARE EASILY FOUND ON EBAY ETC. THEY WERE AND STILL ARE GREAT SELLING BIKES.I WOULDNT HESITATE TO JUMP ON IT AND RIDE 500 MILES RIGHT NOW!! FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS PLEASE OR BETTER YET COME SEE IT. BIKE IS FOR SELL FOR A HIGHER PRICE LOCALLY AND IS SUBJECT TO CANCELATION SO MAKE YOUR BID COUNT!!
