1975 Honda CB200T CB200 with less than 2,900 mile on the odometer, beefed up and upgraded in a few areas, and Ready to Ride!
See and hear Black Bart on YouTube: http://youtu.be/C1MrQuvIP3E
Selling this bike for a guy in South Carolina that had me "lay hands" on the bike.
The bike is titled in his name, ready to transfer to the buyer, and that adds value to your vintage Honda motorcycle!
At 2,900 miles, this is virtually a new/vintage motorcycle. The turn signal lights have been streamlined to hug close to the bike. Not likely to kick them swinging your leg over the bike, Also makes for a cool compact look. Black aftermarket handlebars are shorter than stock and continue the compact look.
Considered Bratting Bart? The seat height on a CB200 is already low enough for almost anyone to ride, so keeping the stock (comfortable) seat in place for the brat mod still gives you a ride that is easy to mount. The from the factory welded in rear fender (front half) is in great condition. Removing the chrome rear fender section and your done and still protecting either open velocity stacks or chrome air pods. Using Jack's invisible battery system, the side cover/battery section can be removed and create the "void" behind the engine, in front of the rear fender.

Fuel tank is original inside and out. Only minor patina to the interior. Exterior has been painted black over red. New fuel lines and petcock with this tank.
Matching original side covers (RARE!) in what could be the original matte black finish
Original seat in excellent condition.
Bart has some rust pitting and some unscathed areas as well.
The frame is in very nice shape, minor rusting at some weld joints, otherwise paint is good.
Chrome fenders are in very nice shape.
Rear shocks are functional, but would make a nice upgrade for both ride handling and aesthetics
(Less than $100)
Chrome wheels each have a downside as seen in photos.
With the wheels rotated 180 degrees, you have a lot of nice curb appeal.
(See rim closeup where one section was "test cleaned" to give a feel for what you can expect if you put the energy into it)
All electrics work, horn could use some exercise.
Missing side stand, nice one on eBay for $100, eBay item number: 201041836241
Center stand is included.
Mufflers are a bit on the loud side, but could be stuffed with stainless steel wool for quieting?
Kick starter required the right side muffler to be "custom indented" for clearance.
Bart could use some love in the area of a WD-40 cleaning, and you'd be glad you did.
Or, hop on him and go!
