1972 Honda CB500 Four Registration Number: BMV 352K Frame Number: CBthe details below - Original, low mileage unrestored example, which benefits from new paintwork Honda CB 500/ 4 has a 498cc air cooled 8 valve inline 4 cylinder engine with an output of 50 bhp giving a top speed of 115 mph. The 500/ 4 was lighter and more nimble than it’s stable mate the 750/ 4 so they were compatible on speed and acceleration. Launching in 1971 at the London Racing and Sporting Motorcycle Show, it was a world beater. The motorcycle press loved them, so did the public. Several CB500/ 4s were entered into the production TT races on the isle of Man in the early 1970s. Bill Smith won the 1973, 8. 2 seconds ahead of Stan Woods on a Suzuki T500. This CB500 Four was imported from the United States at just 9, 477 miles in 2014, and now shows 12, 446 miles recorded. A recent brand new Honda exhaust system has been fitted plus a £600 professional paint finish by JBS Motorcycle Paintwork. A really smart example in a wonderful 1970s colour scheme.
