Classic Honda mortorcycles, anyone into them?

[Cooter]

Hadda CB550 and still have a 1972 Honda "Trail 70" like the ones above, but mines kinda gold/green color..

That's the next bike I'm looking to get. If its clean and you would part with it stupid cheap, I'd drive to Va to get it.  

If it's the Honda Trail 70, No, Not stupid cheap, as it's running. All original and I will sell it, but bring your money.

Found this in town yesterday.  Yep, he's gonna fix it one day so he doesn't want to sell it.   Yeah O.k.
Sold my 125 for 850.00 yesterday so I'm on the hunt again.

[1969chargerrtse]

Sold my 125 for 850.00 on CL and bought this 81 CB 750 in Long Island for 850.00  Wife was at work, snuck out and took a ferry from Ct to NY to get it ,and got back home before she did.  Sits in the garage and she wouldn't know the difference from 125 to 850.00  Haha.

I've had so many old bikes I can hardly remember them all. One of my favorites was a '67 450 'black bomber' that I built up with high compression, race cam, header and Mikuni carbs. boy, that thing was a lot faster than anyone would have thought...only took 2 months to lose it to impound and get a court date.

I had a '72 Honda TL125 that is probably my all-time favorite motorcycle-I trialed it, ice raced it, and daily drove it.

Thanks,
last night after work I ran to Rhode Island and grabbed this awesome Honda Aero 50 scooter with 900 miles on it for 150.00 and this Kawasaki for the same, and the little quad a friend sold me for only 200.00.  That's for the little guy for Christmas.
The Kawasaki needs a lot of work, that I'm gonna just sell cheap and fast.
I'm done running around till the Holidays are over.  I have plenty to play with now.

[NYCMille]

Yeah great stories and pic's.  My all time favorite would have to be the Honda CT 50/70.  Even little Michael Jackson had one of those.

My friend had one of these were I grew up,really neat little bike.I did a search on Ebay for them,WOW! they can be costly for a vintage one!!!! But alot of them available,restored...to nice to use now.Be a nice garage ornament !!!!!

A couple of years go I found a Honda CB125 on CL with only 1500 miles and in near-perfect original shape.  It's a fun around-town bike and always draws attention.  Needs tires, though, which are difficult to find in non-Chinese manufacturer.  Fun stuff.

[Rolling_Thunder]

I have a 1970 CT-70 in the shed...    it was my mom's back in the day...    blue...      going to restore it one of these days.

[1969chargerrtse]

Well the scooter is back together and runs like brand new. That little sucker will do 45 mph and is wisper quiet.  Love Honda quality.  The Kawasaki is on eBay.

Believe it or not I just picked this up on Craig List tonight for 400.00!!  It has 68k and is the loaded Aspencade model.  1985, It's a bit weathered but will make an awesome cruiser for that price.  Within an hour I was cruising the streets.

I have a 75 CL360 that hasn't ran in 4 or 5 years due to a bad coil on the left bank. It has 18k miles on it. I've sorta been "prodded" by a young friend of mine that came to Carlisle with me last year, to get it running again so I bought a new coil and another fuel tank because the old one had rust in it as it was. I also have a new left front turn signal lense for it.

This was one my brother bought to get his license and then bought the KZ650 below. I had owned an 81 Honda CM400C that I really liked but i sold it 10 years ago, so I bought the CL360 from my brother.

Sorry for the bad pics, I took them with my cell phone.



This is my brothers 77 KZ650. Has a little over 8k miles on it. I think he put a whopping 8 miles on it last year.


It really looks good if he would get off his dead ass and give it a good cleaning.
