I plan on picking this up Wednesday.

So short story time , when I was still in school my brother bought this used Honda CB 200T , I rode the bike a lot and I really liked it, he wanted something bigger and ended up selling the bike dirt cheap , I actually sold it for him. somewhere around 1983 or 1984.

For the last couple of years I have been looking for one, I always to make a cafe racer out of one , I found some but they were bone stock and going for big money, well I consider $1500 to $1800 big money for what they are, I can do better,, the other day I found this one and I as going to get it Wednesday afternoon, he has already done tons of work on it and he has a lot of new part for it as well.

I started working on bikes in when I was 14 years old mostly out of necessity , then in 1982 I started working at the Honda dealership . motorcycles were always my first love long before jet skis became popular.

It ain't no hill for a climber !

I had a cl360 for a bit. I hope to stumble on an rd350 one day and build a cafe racer. For me skis>motorbikes

I like that red and white color scheme you're doing. Cool old Honda. I love my old Honda bikes. Bulletproof reliability and I'll never get rid of them.

I am not doing the color scheme it is like that when I get it, like I said a bunch of work has been done already, the bike will end up with a red white and blue Honda racing inspired color scheme like I did on my VT 500 Ascot. I am really digging the red frame though.

I am thinking something along these lines but I am still looking at designs right now

This is the paintjob I did on the VT500 ascot, that's all paint , including the blue pinstripe but not the Honda wing decals and the sidecover and tail decals , all under layers of clearcoat, that's not my bike though, I sold it to a friend some years ago and he put my tank, sidecovers and front fender on his bike, I think it came in second or third at a local bike show.

A couple of years later I was able to buy my bike back from him with all my original parts , Mine has stock pipes , a white seat and a Cobra Aluminum exhaust canister and gutted power chamber. Also mine does not have a windshield or a luggage rack., I am more of a purist.

Sweet rig. I just picked up my 7th aprilia this weekend. 2007 Factory RSV-R. Absolute monster of a bike but I think there's something wrong with it, the front wheel doesnt stay down

Very cool! I’m sure it’ll be great once your finished with it

It's in the back of my truck, I had travel 5 hours one way to get it and let the air out of the back tire to get my work shell doors closed but it's snug as a bug in a rug.
It has brand new tires and tubes but the white wheels have got to go ,battery box is under the rear cowling , the paint job on the tank is less than desirable, no problem I happen to know a guy.

He also threw in a shop manual and some paint, stirring sticks and filters, honestly I am not sure what all is in the box that came with the bike but it's full of parts , it's heavy and all the major parts are there as well as some new parts.

Google maps on my phone sucks, it sent me down the wrong path several times and I almost didn't make it out of Camden Alabama., those guys in Camden need to learn how to put up road closed signs before you get to the part that's closed and detours would be much appreciated, google. needs to learn how to update stuff, they flat out suck.

I scored it for $500.00 .
