    It's not here yet, ...

    ... but have a lead on this. Current owner has not had it on the road for MANY years, but has had a professional mechanic friend go through it, including rebuilding the carbs. Since it has been sitting a while since then, he's going to have the carbs cleaned again.

    (Late) 1971 Honda CL350. I have not heard it run, but am assured it will run once he has the carbs cleaned again. Older Cheng Shin tires WILL need to be replaced. Missing right side cover is on my bench right now, getting a crack slurried over.

    He is interested in selling, but has no idea of its value. Any clues?

    How cool! That looks like so much fun to ride. That specimen looks remarkably unadulterated.

    Perhaps look through ebay sold auctions, and there's bound to be forums (fora?) for these.

      That's a gem right there! My second ever road bike was that same model, I'd love to have another someday. As to value, up where I'm at you might be able to get $1200 out of it in full running condition with decent tires keeping in mind that old bikes are a dime a dozen up this way. Just like with my 450 the hipster kids go APE over bikes like that one, I'd venture to say I could get $2k+ for it in Ann Arbor if I polished up the legs and case covers. In fact I was highly considering doing just that last summer while staying around the Athens, Oh area but replacing it would be a lot tougher there with very few bikes around for sale at a reasonable price. Figure out where the post-grad colleges are near you and put an ad up on craigslist, even if you don't already have the bike that could give you an idea of what interest there is and what you might be able to fetch for a price.

        Sweet bike!

        My guess would be $2K just because...

        my opinion shouldn't be taken as gospel or in any way that would lead you to believe otherwise (30Sep2021)
