What do you think a TL250 goes for now?

When I scanned this pic the first time, I flipped the stapled on adding machine printout
up out of the way.  Seeing as we are talking prices, I scanned it again and left it showing.
Check out that slip.  The Honda salesman stapled that on there.  The bike was $575.00.   
Tax was 28.75     Title and license was 17.00 for a whopping total of $620.75.   I went back
the next day with $620.75 in cash.   I was 18 at the time.   Wish I could buy a new one now
for $620.00!   But then again I would also like to be 18 again.  ;D

You can also see where I jotted down the insurance estimate   ---  $50.00 a year

Also, that B&W of the girl on the CL350 is from Vanishing Point, iirc. 
I read somewhere she was the directors? GF and got horribly sunburned while filming the scenes of her riding the bike naked.

First time I can remember seeing the CJ. Boy, I like that a lot!  8)

Love these old ads and brochures TT. In the first set of pics at the start of this thread of the red CBX1000 and those 6 cylinders. WOW!! The more I check out about the CBX the more I get the urge to get one. I think you have a 82 X don't you.

I think I've posted this before, but it fits in perfect here also and the tune is kind of catchy to 8)

I love the Ascot. My current plan for my 550 is Ascot wheels and possibly swingarm and shocks to accomodate the rear disk. I have a line on a complete non-running FT500 (sans title naturally) locally for $200.

You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong.
