Ecosse, While looking for something else, check out this "Trials" version of a CB160 Honda.

Looks pretty business like, huh?

Bet it would be a blast to ride.

I like the red bike, I bought a stock one and have never picked it up, I really did not know what it was when I traded for it.

I refuse to get it till the 550 is ridable.

That bike is so sweet. It has been my inspiration since day one. These pics are the reason why I started hunting a CB750 in the first place.

I love how long and lean those 750's are, but man, I would want to have kids first, because you sure as hell aren't going to be having any after riding those things.

Wait, are those things running with magneto's?

Magneto's? Please explain... Newb here.

i'm not 100% on what a magneto is, but it's basicly a way to eliminate the battery , kinda like a capacitor . i think

A Grove · « **Reply #87 on:** July 16, 2008, 04:05:15 am »

OH! I someone has to elaborate for me, or point me in the right direction. Because no battery is what I would like to achieve, I've just been told Its impossible....

Shenanigans · « **Reply #88 on:** July 16, 2008, 04:27:52 am »

A magneto is a closed unit that creates the spark from the rotation of the crank, or something like that. It replaces the points and coils and does not need any outside source of power to work. If you look you will notice it connected to the side of the engine where the points would be. I am sure someone can state what it does better than I can.

With out a battery how would you power everything? (The mag only eliminates the coils/ignition)

If you search it has been discussed before.

More bikes!

RC anyone?

550 track party.

And a 400

I dont know too many details about them but magneto`s are ooooooollld tech, model t`s had them, as did all early cars before reliable high capacity batteries were developed

Just got thru reading the 7pages of Inspiration bikes.
All are very nice, and I was surprised to see both my old CB750 and the
450 in the rankings (thank you guys very much). I have TONS of bikes that get me going, which I will post some pics of later (when I am not sitting at work)....

void909 · « **Reply #91 on:** July 18, 2008, 02:35:08 pm »

Proteal which ones were yours?

ProTeal55 · « **Reply #92 on:** July 18, 2008, 02:51:44 pm »

The old CB750 -->

The soon to be old CB450 -->

strangedaze39 · « **Reply #93 on:** July 21, 2008, 09:18:48 pm »

Hey Proteal, great bikes!! What kind of rear light set-up do you have on there?

What bike are you going to be riding after you sell the 450? I might be wrong but I thought I saw you post some pics of your newer ducati on the DTT forums, it was a killer looking bike.
