1972 HONDA CB500 KO
FULLY RESTORED - ONLY 1900 MILES
OLD BUT GOLD - We have found another Truly Stunning Rare Japanese Classic Motorcycle to offer our customers. Introduced at the London Racing and Sporting Motorcycle Show in 1972 it was hailed as a "Show Stopper" with its Four Cylinders across the frame, four carbs and SOHC with a 5 Speed Gearbox giving it the performance of existing 650 Twins. It boasted a wet sump engine which was to become an industry standard. The CB500 was the First Japanese Motorcycle that Truly Punched above its weight and foretold the cult of the Powerful Middleweight Bike. Several CB500's were entered into the 500cc Production TT on the Isle of Man in the 1970's with Bill Smith taking his CB500 to a Race win in the 1973 TT. The bike comes with the original Bill of Sale, original Buff Log Book and Owners Handbook. Purchased by the current Owner in 2014 the Bike had to be re Registered as it was still on its original Logbook, hence One Owner only on the V5C. Obviously we cannot guarantee the mileage as the bike has undertaken a full restoration but we believe it to be genuine and there are MOT's back to 1999 confirming the current mileage. The engine runs as sweet as a nut and this is a classic that can be ridden as well as looked at! Usual Dealer Facilities. Part Exchange considered. Specialist Finance possible, details on request.
