I need a new winter project. I've been wanting a cafe racer so I've been looking around for vintage Japanese bikes. I just bought this one off the original owner, 4200 miles. I have the original bill of sale. He paid $1250 for it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I got it for less than half that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Chris,
Is that a '75-'76 CB 350? nice score....vintage Hondas from the 60s and 70s are becoming quite collectable and valuable.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

My Father-in-law wanted a CB350 for years. Said they were light, could pick it up and mount on the back of his RV.
Pretty cool find! We had Honda Trail 90's in the late 70's, early 80's. Loved those things. |

I think I would keep that one stock. With such low miles, it will be worth a lot more, besides there are much better bikes to start with if you want a canyon carving cafe racer. Think Yamaha R5 or RD-350!
