Three Bikes for the Price of One!
As many of you have heard, The Missus, Mutant and I have moved back to Georgia. Since we've been back, the amount of work we've been wading through is just bananas. As such, I have decided it's time to trim down the stable a bit. I'm selling both of my classic Honda's (a 1972 CL 450 Scrambler, and a 1974 CB 450). The CB is pretty much back together, it just needs some tweaking on the carbs. The Scrambler is literally a basket case (comes with it's own shopping cart full of parts) and is in pieces, but I have everything to put it back together and then some! There's an extra engine or two between the two motorcycles (they run the same engine), and plenty of spare parts. The CB runs and drives, but the battery needs to be charged (or replaced) and the carbs need some tinkering to get properly settled. The third bike is a 1979 Suzuki GS 850. I started putting this one back together, and took the seller's word that the carbs had already been cleaned and gone through. I put them back together and they started weeping fuel from just about every joint, gasket and casting line.
 I have the rebuild kits (I used fresh gaskets out of the kits, but everything else is still there) and all they need is a good dip in the ultrasonic cleaner, and they should be good to go. I rode both the CB and GS up onto the trucks when I was loading and unloading for the move, so they really do run. I'll get some pictures up later today or over the weekend. I figured I would start here and see if there were any takers. I'm asking $2,500 for all three, and I have ORIGINAL titles in hand! You won't believe how small the original titles are. Not at all like the full-page monstrosities that exist today...

Here are the pictures of the bikes, if anyone is interested. Forgot to mention that the GS has a brand new front tire mounted, and there's a brand new rear tire ready to go on the bike.

Update/edit
There's been tons of interest on Facebook for just the two Honda's, so I've decided to offer them as a two-bike package deal. $1,800 for both of them and a mountain of spare parts.

All Three Bikes Sold!
Well, it took less than 36 hours and all three bikes are sold! I actually made more money breaking them apart and selling the two Honda's as a set and then the GS by itself. Pretty excited to get some garage space back.
