2001 Honda Blackbird, Red, 22,300 miles CBR1100 SOLD

I have owned my Blackbird for 6 years. It is kept in a heated garage, occasional summer use only. It is in excellent clean condition, all the alloy is excellent. New MOT. I have not used it much, but what a cracking bike it is, responsive fuel injection, it rides as if it's on rails, to fast for me really. With that streamlined fairing, it will do 40-45 mpg no problem. It is very powerfull and smooth, with solid handling at all speeds. This bike is a terrific example of what was Honda's flagship sports tourer. The quality is clear to see.

Some service history. The previous owner was a mature person, but relied completely on a friend who was a main dealer bike mechanic who serviced the bike for him once a year.
I have since serviced the bike myself, it seems easier than my previous VFR, (a lot simpler in many ways). There is no corrosion, all the screw heads are in mint condition, the bike is in outstanding condition, (a fair weather machine). The bike has been fitted with recent new tyres and a replacement cam belt tensioner, (as a precaution really). The chain and sprockets have been replaced and are still like new.
Three previous owners.
I now have a triumph with a very upright riding position, which now suits my age much better. I fitted VFR bars which are a little higher and more comfortable, (originals will go with the bike). It has been fitted by a previous owner with a few sensible extra's, ie. a rear hugger, front mudguard extension and a headlamp protector. There are no signs or evidence that the bike has ever been dropped.

This is a lot of bike for little money, it is unmolested and a great bike single or two-up. I will be sorry to let it go.
Please ring for more information.

I bought the Honda Monkey bike brand new from Colwyn Bay Motorcycles in 2018 mainly because I have a long standing relationship with Honda Monkey bikes and I liked the idea of a factory 125cc version.

It’s easy to forget just how innovative the VF750 RC15 was when it first came out. This was at a time of extraordinarily fierce competition between the Japanese makers and while their economy was booming so they went to great lengths for the slightest edge. The VF750 RC15 had the cylinders reversed to reduce the wheel ...
