Survivor (unrestored/original condition) 1975 Honda CB 400 four. This bike was in a private collection its entire life. This bike was being set up in the 1980's for the track. So all the cafe racer parts are from the 70's or 80's. The frame is still shiny gloss black. The tank and side panels were painted once. Fairing and seat set are Don Vesco Cafe racer set (only a couple of sets were ever made). Akront rims, Marchal Amplilux headlight, full wrap chain guard made in England. I believe I have all of the original parts to go back completely stock. I have 2 boxes of parts. Asking $5000 USD. Valued at around $7-8k Please let me know if you have questions. Will trade for classic car or enclosed trailer or?

I had one back then. Great bike. Redline is 13k or so.... Doesn't look like it needs much of anything, just go ride it. Great deal too.

I sold one about 10 years ago that was all there, but needed some work. Let it go for $800. It wasn't much better than the CB350 I put 29,000 miles on in college?

Cool bike! Price seems pretty high to me...

Wonder what this one would go for? https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/mcy/5997867631.html

i'm assuming all the old race parts double the price.

wife has announced that if i get this she's adopting another pet. probably a cat.

Only if you can find someone to buy them. You'll want that bike to be stock for max value.

LOL, I brought home another bike last night. Wife went outside to check it out to make sure I didn't bring home two :)

Oh man!

Fortunately we are low on funds or I would be emailing that guy right now!

Bikes don't take up much room. Who would notice one more?

A buddy and I have an old warehouse. For a while I had seven (7!) 944s, everything from race cars, future race cars and parts cars stored in the back.
