Very nice! I had a ratty old CB175 field bike when I was younger, really wish I had put the effort into restoring it.

Very nice, is it the CB250? My first bike was a 1969 ish CD175. After many ones inbetween I have this now, just finished rebuilding it.

good grief that looks brand new! I'm affraid my 'restoration' of my old CG125 simply involved lots of black paint

Gorgeous! Can I have a go?

I like the gt 250 , I had a very early drum braked one in poly red. Should have kept it, oh well.

Edit to say the Honda is a cb72, 250cc.

The 305 was identical to the 250.except for the engine bore/stroke. it was called the cb77 here in the UK.
