Hi All!
For your consideration.....$5200 or near offer for 2 of my bikes!
I'm "rationalising" my toy collection.
The CB is a low miles, rust free original paint in stock form bike. The tank has a few minor scuffs and one ding. Runs OK on choke, sputters and dies eventually when choke is off- carbs need a good synchronization, if I didn't suck at carb balancing the bike would run fine, I'm sure. New brake pads and tires (not installed yet), new fluids, air cleaner, points and plugs. Original seat cover in good condition, as are the mild steel fenders. Fuel tank was cleaned and "sloshed" with that plastic liner material. All lights, signals and horn work. Side covers present and in great shape as well. Original 4 into 4 exhaust, though the baffles inside have turned to dust and a few small holes were patched (sounds real good, actually). Original owners manual. Timing set "by the book", chain adjusted as well. Rims are straight and appear to be fine. I was thinking of a "cafe-up" for his bike but, frankly, I think it is just too good to take a rattle can of flat black paint to. Buy it and prove me wrong!
The NS has been with me for 4 years, in which time it has been restored almost completely. It has a pretty fair paint job in Honda Performance Red. The bodywork is not original but WAY better than when I acquired the bike. It needs a pair of tires (IMO, $222), a new windscreen ($69), and the horn just stopped working (?)- the trip meter doesn't work, never has since I've owned it. Mechanically excellent; when finished in 2005 it had New rings, pistons, bearings (except bottom end), gaskets, rubber, fuel cock, fork seals/ fluid, brake fluid, pads, discs, cans repacked, jugs welded and replated, carbs rebuilt, reeds (she's a 2 stroke), pipes sand blasted and powdercoated, clutch, plugs, etc, etc, etc. With the bike goes a spare parts package that includes another set of new pistons, 2 sets of rings, a rebuilt crank with spare crank parts as well, new set of top & bottom end bearings, conrods, decals, gasket set.....I think that's about it. Oh, has the single seat cowl too. Check www.ns400r.co.uk for a run down on this most awesome ride. Eminently suitable to bitch up as a street fighter if you're so inclined.
Email me at evilincorporated@rogers.com for pix as my picture posting skills on forums suck worse than my carb balancing skills. Let's try to avoid the nasty lowball offers if at all possible, I'm a reasonable fella and will listen to ressonable offers.
