I'd keep this if I lived closer to the hills.. but...

Located in Watertown, SD.   Will help ship, or assist with a fly and ride.

Price - $2200.  Pretty firm as its a nice example and has a lot of new stuff.    

21,4xx miles.  I've put around 600 miles on it including 120 miles today.

I bought this pretty clean 1990 CB-1 last fall, and proceeded to give it a thorough going through.

Since purchase, I've added or done:

New sealed battery (actually this was put in right before I bought it)
New Battlax S20 radials
New brake pads
Flush / replace brake fluid
Valve check (all in spec)
New OEM air filter
New OEM fork seals, dust caps and fork bushings
New coolant
Oil change - full synthetic and filter
New carb needles, full carb cleaning
Carb Sync






















The good:
As seen above, its a nice clean bike.
Its a CB-1!
All the wear components have been replaced, its ready roll.
No rust in the tank

The bad (see pics below):
2 small depressions in the tank - one is the size of a pencil eraser, one is about quarter sized.   I ran it by a paintless dent removal guy and he thought he could pop them out.  I haven't bothered.
There is some adhesive goo on the tank on the front.  Not in a noticeable spot, patience and the right cleaner would likely get it off.
Minor rash on the Kerker
Minor rash on right side engine case
Some strap wear marks on the tail section
Someone polished the side panels.   It doesn't look bad at all, its just not quite right.
Someone did a sloppy rear fender-ectomy, but the license plate covers it pretty well.

Most of the flaws aren't noticeable from more than a few feet away.

The ugly:
Nothing really

This bike was super clean BEFORE Hank got his hands on it.  Im sure its even better now.  Looks like it has never sat out a day in its life.  Its a very nice, very clean scoot.
