    I got me a '81. CB 125 S for my winter project.
    It's in poor condition but it will be as a candy when I'm done with her.
    Good luck!

    am taking on an 82 model year of this bike with starter gear, battery and carb(s) needing attention. for the price and how amazing honda bikes are, i am sure its worth the 700 this guy is asking. lol

    Are those Kerker mufflers? I had this exact bike 30 years ago and someone had replaced the stock exhaust of 4 individual mufflers with these dual 2 to 1 pipes. Sounded cool I guess but the bike never ran right and I really think it was that exhaust screwing with the back pressure. I'll never know.

      I actually took it to a local shop that specializes in vintage bikes (I posted a RUclips short about it). That dude has had it for over a year and hasn't touched it haha. I'll be getting it back soon just as I left it and restarting that project myself. Stay tuned!

    These were called 'nighthawk' in the UK, they were the cb650 custom version.

      Nighthawk is CB650SC, which is 656cc. Hydraulic clutch, shaft driven and has a OD gear.
      The bike in the video is 627cc, chain driven and has 5 gear.

    Starting Fluid WIll Do The Trick Just Got This Same Bike Hopefully Will Have it running in a couple days ! Do you recommend this bike for a beginner ? I usually only ride motorcycles but excited to get this going.

    • @lifewithdave9202
      @lifewithdave9202  Год назад +2

      I did use some starter fluid to fire it up the first time haha! and yes, If that bike is running good and is safe (new tires, brakes, etc) it would be an okay first bike. There's better ones out there maybe a little newer with ABS, maybe a little lighter and balanced better but my first bike was a '78 CB750. Thanks for watching! Good luck with your build.

    Tengo la RC05 con motor RC03E igual a la tuya. ¿Me recomiendas una página donde comprar repuestos de ese motor? (Lo Voy a importar) No estoy encontrando Guia de Cadena de distribución ni cojinetes de biela.

    You will get (at best) $1,500 for that bike in average running condition. Not a popular model. Ask me how I know... If it aint a CB750, 900, 1000, nobody wants it .

      Call me nobody then, because I love this bike. Simply because it was the first cool bike I owned as a kid, sold it when I was in the Navy and couldn't ride it. Kicking myself ever since. Got my eye on one right now, and I know I'm paying more than 2k for it.
