HondaCB650

Just a friendly heads up....

I will be departing Thursday June-18 for a week+ motorcycle adventure of sorts, returning briefly sometime during the the following weekend (27th or 28th or so), then departing again on Monday the 29th for an ATV Adventure of sorts with my kids. I will not be back until later that week. This essentially means that I'm out of my workshop for a couple weeks. I will do my best to answer questions both in this thread and via PM (although I often struggle accessing the forum during my travels), but I will not be able to weigh anything for accurate shipping quotes, I won't be able to pull parts, I won't be able to compare parts or cross-reference part numbers (I'm not likely to be able to do much research or troubleshooting assistance/advice), I'm not going to be able to rummage though my parts bins looking for an elusive part that I may or may not have (Haha!), and I obviously won't be able to actually ship anything. If you post something here or send me a PM, and I do not answer in a timely manner, that's why. I'll do my best to get back to you eventually, but typically further into my travels, I sometimes get bogged down, messages slip through the cracks, and it might be after I get back before I can get caught up. If we have a pending deal and/or one that has been put on the back burner, feel free to nudge me when I get back so that I don't forget (my brain often turns to mush after travel like this! hehe). Email is always quicker and more reliable for me. Thanks for the understanding!

What part of Ohio are you in?

Columbus ! I got the bike Saturday for cheap so looking to get it more road worthy

I have a variety of handlebars (including stock) and two or three exhaust systems for both the standard CB650 (4-into-2) and the 650C (4-into-4). I need to check on the condition. Shipping exhaust systems is a PITA and usually expensive, but if you're willing to pickup (I'm about 100-miles from Columbus) I'd be willing to sell cheap.

The airbox might be a tough one. I've gotta check to see if I have any left. Looking at the carbs on your bike, I'm guessing that is a 1980 model, right?

Oh I have no problem driving down to pick up the parts!!
Which exhaust would you recommend the 4-4 or 4-2 ?!
And yes it is an 80 CB 650
Yea just post some picks of the handle bars and I'll pick one I just have drag bars and I can't fit my front brakes on it haha.
Thanks for the help

I have one of each system. I think the 4-into-4 looks better (Honda also put that exhaust on the 82 CB650SC Nighthawk), but the 4-into-2 exhaust that I have is in better shape. I don't have good photos at the moment. Will try to get some tomorrow. Will also try to sort through my handlebars.

Unfortunately, I do NOT have an airbox for an 80.

Awesome I will wait till photos to decide on the exhaust but I agree I like the looks of the 4-4 better.
Thanks for the help
Also was thinking about forward controls know it's random but wouldn't happen to have anything related to that?

Don't have any forward controls. For something like the CB650, that might be a bit tricky. Hehe...

4-into-2


Came off this bike:


4-into-4, a bit rusty have have some small holes on the underside:



I've got a LOT of handlebars....

These, plus maybe a half a dozen others.

How much for the 4-2 ?! And I see 2-3 bars I like what's your asking for these things ?!

I see clubmans and a couple superbike bars.

Send me an email at witttom@yahoo.com (three T's in w-i-t-t-t-o-m) and we'll work it out.

I'm keeping the clubmans and at least one set of superbike bars for myself.
