Honda cb500 , one of the best bikes ive owned

in #motorbikes7 years ago

here is my cb500 bought off ebay for less than £500 , a bit scabby , un loved and in need of upgrading

so i cut off or binned all the extra plastic , and put a set of hagon rear shocks on it £115 and some progressive front springs and heavier oil , 15 weight
new , second hand exhaust
renthal bars and new number plate hanger and smaller plate

and hey presto , less of a commuter bike and more of a scratcher , handled fantastically and really quite fast , this bike is used in a race series called thunder sport and was one of the most enjoyable bikes ive ever had ,fun to ride and cheap to run

i would recommend this bike whole heartedly , and if you like corners change the suspension and fit some bridgstones and away you go
