Please Note whilst this bike starts, runs and drives there is an ENGINE NOISE with it which think is CLUTCH related (but can't be sure) so am selling it here for spares or repair.
I have tried to demonstrate the noise with couple of videos as well as this verbal description.
As the bike is dropped into gear the clutch drags little but as the clutch is released there is what would call non standard whirring noise as the drive load is taken up. Very difficult to describe it really and you can just hear it at the end of video and better in video when the bike is ridden on part clutch. When took the bike for short spin it seemed to improve as things warmed up but to be honest it will only get worse and needs investigating asap.
Ok now that's out of the way here's the usual info you need.
If you take look around bay you will see that these lightweight little Honda's hold their value very well indeed so the fault with this bike is catered for in the low start price.
I've had it about 12 months. It came in deal with another bike and Is too new for my tastes :-)
Good Bits
Rather pleasant to rideV5 in my name and have the KeysNew front Wheel bearingsEverything works and believe it should go through an Mot with minimal if any extra workRear tyre plenty of treadFront Tyre plenty of tread but lumpy wear pattern. Doesn't affect the way it rides.Good chain and sprocketsPlenty of power in the brakes and no binding.Good chrome on the fork stanchionsAll electrics work
Bad Bits
The engine problemRusty exhaust although doesn't blow and seems solid enoughSlightly sticky switch when dipping the lights (just needs bit of WD40 think and will prob sort this)Starts from the Battery but its past its best.Lock on the top box is no goodNot currently MOT'd as seemed no point until engine noise sorted.
Its been used to commute so has all the usual scratches etc you would expect so please use the pictures as description here.That said its still quite pretty bike when cleaned
The Videos
No1 is general walk around the bike. Both vids accentuate all the engine noises of course.
