check out that bike!  has anyone ever worked on one of these, or rode one?  how hard are parts to find?  i think it'd make a great show piece/restoration!  just as long as it's got a title.  what do y'all think or know about these?

what a find, go get it, looks complete to me.
Incidentally this should have gone in 'Other Bikes'

Hey, these have a soft spot for a lot of people. I don't think you'll ever regret it. Be sure to keep it stock and use authentic parts - many still available from Asian markets - EBay is full of NOS parts for these comning out of Singapore and Thailand. I have it's bigger brother - the S90.

Here is a copy of the very first motorcycle I ever drove/owned back in 1969 at the ripe old age of 11 :)

Go, go, go before it's gone.

Thats a nice bike.  I'm in the process of completely rebuilding a 1965 right now.  There are loads of parts availble from honda dealers for good prices.

I've still got a 66 model, cool little bikes and I've been scoring lots of stuff off E-bay for a restore. Incredible the parts still available from Honda too
