Honda Steed 600

Featured Replies

I might be looking to buy a 600 Steed soon and have one in mind to look at.

I've only seen photos of this bike so far but something puzzles me a little.The photos of the bike show what I can only describe as a "Harley-type" chaincase on the LHS of the engine, just like the one you can see in the attached picture.

Can anyone tell me anything about this chaincase - it doesn't appear on the vast majority of Steed engines I see either on the road or in photos. Is it just a cosmetic add-on or actually a functioning part of the engine?

Thanks.

probably just an add on. only the owner can tell you for sure.

not much Steed left on this bike anyway. its all modded including rake/frame. fuel tank looks stock, but hard to see as picture cant be blown up

I saw this bike yesterday at a garage in Hua Hin, i'm not sure at 100% but the plate has the same numbers 777 and the bike looked the same.

OP back again.

The bike in the picture isn't the bike I'm considering - that one looks far different :) :).

The picture's only to demonstrate what the chaincase/primary drive cover looks like; I couldn't find a better picture.

This photo is from a story in a Thai biker magazine from a couple of years ago. I actually just threw that issue out 4 days ago when I moved condos. It is a Steed 600, but it is completely custom, done by a professional shop. I believe they hand crafted alot of the parts, and borrowed alot from other bikes as well. I remember this bike well, it had alot of brushed parts on it. I liked it alot, and it was the reason I got my Steed 2 years ago.

To answer, I believe that this is an actual functioning part on the 600's. I have only seen one 600 in Thailand, all the rest were 400's, and they don't have the same cover on them. I see 10 Steed 400's a day, but just don't see the 600's.

Does the Steed you are looking at have a green book?

If not you may well have a problem in the future.
