SOHC Singles & Twins / CB250 MC26 help
« on: February 27, 2024, 04:32:55 PM »
Wondering if anybody can advise me on known problems to look out for when buying a CB250 type MC26.
It's a 1996 model that's done 23,000km.

I'm not intimately familiar with this model as it was launched after I already had given up working in a Honda stealership.


Any advice would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Out & About / nippy
« on: September 14, 2023, 07:33:02 PM »
Very pleasurable weekend exploring back roads in the Bavarian forest and Franconia, clocked just over 500 miles.

Getting a bit nippy in the early morning for camping now tho.

Desperately Seeking!! / Shoei
« on: July 14, 2023, 07:23:08 PM »
Anyone got a new unused chin curtain for a Shoei Multitec?

It's originally supplied with the new helmet and fits under the chin piece, not everyone bothers to fit them so if you have one still in the helmet box and unused please let me know.

(Postage would be to the UK)
 

Many thanks in advance

Out & About / Silk Road
« on: September 07, 2022, 05:20:14 PM »
On route to the CBX1000/6 rally in Germany, I met this guy at the CZ/D border crossing, he's heading for the Silk Road on a C90.

Gone through his first Chinese engine replacement already during his trip through Austria, wish him luck!

Photo album of a local oldtimer show we attended last year.

The wife took along her '42 NSU 125 which has about the same performance as my wee NF75.


Seventies Hondas are becoming a cult amongst the well heeled youth across here.


Enjoy!

Out & About / Honda4fest
« on: July 07, 2022, 08:26:33 PM »
Just back from the Honda4fest in Cereglio near Bologna.
Bike went ok but one of the soles detached from my Altberg boots, only 28 years old you know.

Local garage in Cereglio stuck them back together with something similar to Tiger seal, had to leave the yellow tape bandage on until the following morning tho.

Folk always seem to look kindly on you when travelling on a classic bike.

CB750 / DID X ring chain
« on: September 13, 2021, 06:55:31 PM »
Can anyone please recommend a decent long lasting chain for my CB750F1.

Three years and 9,000 miles ago I fitted a DID 530VX x ring chain, and recently I've noticed bits of rubber hanging out from between the side plates. I've seldom had to adjust it and always lubed it after a run.

When the x rings completely fail, the internal lube escapes and the links seize.

Here's a "rare beast" for our experts to dissect.

Other Bikes / fer forks sake (Honda NF75)
« on: January 18, 2021, 11:21:51 AM »
Maybe this should be over on the anoraks forum?

But what with lock down and stuff, I'm running out of decent projects.

It's gonna be a long drag until spring time.
