*NO RESERVE* Up for auction is my recently acquired 1973 Honda CB350f Four. A surprise buy for my kid that my wife put an end to. Oh well, I tried. Had planned on using to ride, then into a winter project Cafe' Racer. This bike could go either way, ride as it is, restoration or Cafe'. It would make one of the best looking Cafe's anyplace, with the 350cc SOHC in-line four. It's only real needs are purely cosmetic. As a restore, will only increase in value. I've been following other sales and several have sold above well above 5k for restores. (I wish) this isn't that good, but could be, with time and detail. Condition of the bike are excptional for a 40 year old ride. Does not appear to ever have been down. It had a fugly crash bar around the engine I removed, and that also showed no scratches or damage. Foot pegs, cases, covers ect. show no wear or damage. Seat is great shape as well, check pics. The only needs to this bike other than mirrors, is paint on the greens. Frame is strong in finish and won't need work. Tank and side covers will need repaint, but are still original with emblems.(rare). Tank with very few small dings and small rust outside via chip. Chrome is decent with some signs of age, but not bad, re-chrome and Bingo. Bike was parked inside shed near window and heat caused tach and spedo face cracking. These easily found on-line. Outside of the exhaust, (sounds wicked), bike is as designed and stock. Stock Motor, trany, carbs untouched or molested. Starts right up via electric or kicker. Under 12,000 original miles. New plugs and oil change. Front tire good, rear okay for now, but will probably need replacement this season.Rides strong and smooth.If there are plans for a Cafe' bike in its future, the parts removed will MORE than pay for the conversion. A lot of restorers out there will only use original parts, especially seats, lighting and covers. This I know from my experience with my previous CB750's. Go for it. The other stuff;Bike is also for sale locally so don't wait until the last day to place your bids. Once it starts to get serious bidders, I will let it ride and carry through with the auction, otherwise it's open to local sale and may end early. I have a 100% score and all other sales of my bikes, even international, have gone great with no complaints. Any questions, ask via ebay or call. -$500 deposit upon auction end with paypal. Balance in cash on pickup or certified bank check 10 days prior to shipping. Will hold 30 days after payment for shipper, or will discuss. Shipping can be found here on ebay. Others, 750's and GWings I've sold have ranged from $400 to $600, Dallas, LA and Miami. (The CB350 weighs in at 400lbs) The Bike can be viewed prior to bidding if local, or traveling to East Tennessee. I am located in Maryville, 20 miles south of Knoxville, TN. Thanks for looking and bidding and good luck. This is a super little bike with great potential, whichever option taken. Take care, Will.865-640-6543
