Honda CB 500, 1994, 54k, ?700 ono

[lightfoot256]

Hi, I'm finally selling my CB500! I got the bike about 3 years ago just after I'd passed my test - spent 2 years on it restricted to 33bhp (washers and certificate still available) and then only a further 6 months before I wanted something bigger; So I stayed with the family and got a 98 CBR600!! Fantastic bike! I was planning on keeping the CB forever as it's been a beautiful bike to ride but I've found that I was using it less and less (due to the CBR) and then the tax, mot and insurance came round for renewal and due to financial constraints I decided not to renew.

This means the bike is without tax or mot, I can't get taxed without being insured and I can't get MOT'd without tax - And there's no way I'm paying for a years insurance for the sake of £50 quid or so. I used to get the bike MOT'd without fail or issues for about £20-25 and the _YEARLY_ tax is now only £33 (check DSA website).

Here's some info:

I recieved the bike with approx 30,000 miles and have since done the 24,000 miles over the last 3 years which is a nice tidy number for this little commuter.

It's had services every 4-8,000 miles including oil, filter and plug changes. It's also recently been fitted with new chain and sprokets and a new tyre.

There are spare wheels available for an extra £65 - perfect for getting new tyres fitted without disrupting your riding and a spare tank available for £35; I was about to start a project just before I got the CBR so ended up with spare bits :-p.

There's also _just_ the plastic part to a belly pan for this thing; It has been damaged and then fixed, so that's available for another £20 (the item as new cost me £65!!!)

So there is it. Available for contact on either: 07894 651 139 or email; ** lightfoot256 (at) googlemail (dot) com

I'm based in Hoyland, Barnsley. Less than a minute off of J36 on the M1.

Cheers,
Chris
