I have acquired another Honda, and garage space is needed,
So my little 2stroke screamer has to go,

Historic
Matching numbers AS3 prefix

Stainless rims and spokes
Drums skimmed and obviously new shoes

Engine rebuilt, new bearings and seals, resleeved to std,
New clutch
Rose jointed gear linkage
New paint, a few scratches, it does get used,new rear shocks, chain and sprockets.

Clocks redone by Peter,
Electronic ignition, and generator, new maintenance free battery, seat needs attention,

Offers around £2,750

The final picture is how it was when I bought it

Nice bike John. Good luck with the sale.

Tell us of the new Honda then?
One day I'll have the time to restore it, not just talk and dream....

I'm some way into my 350k0 resto John - enjoyed the restoration and lots of parts still available - as with any class, chroming is biggest cost. Buy a bike with all the original parts still on - all the original little brackets etc.
And you've got expert Ash!
