Honda CB

I loved the way this bike looked, it rode real nice but after a couple days
of riding it the Cam Chain Guide broke,causing the Cam Chain to break and
bending all 4 of my valves+cracking the tops of my pistons!
I am currently trying to find all the parts to rebuild this engine and am finding that alot of the major parts I need have been dicontinued from Honda!
This was my 1st bike that I have owned! Looking back I think I should have researched this bike to see how hard it would be to find parts for it before buying it! So for any of you 1st time bike buyers out there, Do your research
first before you buy a 32 year old bike!!!!

The 1995 Honda CB1000, also known as "The Big One" is a truly rare & special motorcycle. This bike was only sold in the United States in 1994 and 1995. Its called "The Big One" for good reason - its got a massive 1000cc 4 cylinder engine, which is more than enough power to do just about anything you'd want to do on the road.

I like it because it is unique. This bike is very hard to find; yet its prized by its owners, and gets great reviews. I was not hesitant about purchasing this bike, after a friend told me about them. The seller was very reluctant to let it go; they took excellent care of it.

Its a big, beautiful bike. Fun to ride, fast, unusual appearance due to the "naked" (no fairings) look of sports bikes of the era. I chose to add some windshields, engine guards and luggage racks to enhance the look a bit, without taking away from its overall beauty.

Honda makes fantastic motorcycles. In the past, I have owned a 600cc 1993 Honda and a 750cc 1994 Honda Nighthawk - both bikes were flawless mechanically, and gave many years and miles of reliable service. I know that I can expect the same from "The Big One."

This was one of the best Ebay experiences I have ever had. i asked a million questions and Jim was so COOPERATIVE.

IT WAS NOT IN ADVERTISED SHAPE,FRONT BRAKE WAS LOCKED UP,RUNNING ON ONE CYLINDER,AND BOTH EXHAUST PIPES WERE COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH, BUT IS A MODEL I WANTED FOR COLLECTION.

Bought this motorcycle due to fond memories of a CB 750 I rode often in my earlier years. Rode motorcycles since I was 12 yrs. old. The 4 cylinder Honda was the most reliable machine on the road. Back in the day 750 riders were kings because the bike was very fast and you could own a ten year old bike for around $700. That old Honda out-run a lot of my friends riding Harleys. My secret was it had a 900 kit installed. So while I was searching for a 750-4 this bike popped up and I won the bid. Have bought a few parts on Ebay for this machine and will have it on the road soon. Can't wait to blister my first hawg.

We bought this bike for our oldest son and was somewhat disappointed. The bike needs alot more work done to it than we were origionally told about. Does have a great paint job though.

I purchased this restored cycle as I always thought it was one of Hondas most stunning bikes
ever made. The restoration job was outstanding. It looks to be BRAND NEW! Even the delivery
driver was impressed with it's condition.

I purchased this little 1976 Honda 400-4 motorcylce purely as a nostalgic item. I had one back in 1979 and loved it. I am disappointed overall as the bike I purchased on ebay was completely misrepresented in the description and I have already had to put an additional $500 into it just to get it running correctly. I have now found other significant problems that will be costly to fix if I decide to go ahead. I am so discouraged now that I doubt that I will do much more work on it. I learned my lesson, never buy a vehicle without being able to test it out. So, $2500++ dollars later, I have a rusty, poorly running example of the bike I wanted. No money left to buy a good one now and I doubt I could sell this one for near what is invested in it. Every one made out on this purhcase except myself.
Live and learn I guess.

The Honda single cylinder four stroke OHC engine is known for its reliability; the basic engine design has been around for more than 45 years. The 125 cc road bike has been around in one form or the other for more than 30.

These bikes are fast enough to keep up with traffic and get close to 100 mpg. They handle well and accelerate smartly.

This seller finds and fixes up old Honda motorcycles. He is a retired aeronautics engineer and knows what he's doing. I love the bike I bought from him.

Do you like the classic look of a cruiser (I particularly like a bucket headlight over the typical sport bike headlights) and also the styling of a modern sport bike? Not only does the styling meet in the middle but also the comfort and performance. Positioning the rider mostly upright with a sporty acceleration the Honda CB is a perfect blend of speed and comfort. In 2004 they came in two different colors(the 599, that is) ; yellow and asphalt. The bike I purchased came in asphalt which is a very sleek flat black color. It is a beautiful color especially for a naked bike. I mostly ride my bike for recreational use and sometimes commute with it. On curvy roads the handling and cornering it's capable of really surprised me the first couple of times. It's an awesome machine that I really don't have any complaints about.
