Curious to see what's out there in the world

Our garage has a few vintage hondas in it:

1972 CB100

roommate's first bike, has been in the family since new. it's in damn near mint condition, all original.

1976 CB360

other roomie's dad's first bike, last registered in 1982, sat in a barn for 20 years... running and registered now.

What you got? :D

I have a CB-1. Not quite vintage but it is not common, and it is a sweeeeet little bike.

I JUST sold my 1976 CB750. There's a 1972 CL175 in my backyard. The engine's in my back room/junk room wrapped in a black trash bag. Other parts are somewhere around here. That probably doesn't count.

Besides the 599:

'66 Honda 305 scrambler (runs, needs work)
'70 Honda CL350 (was dad's, been sitting 20+ years)
'71 Honda CL350 (a really nice one, this was my last bike before the 599)
'72 Honda SL350 (resto I started last year, almost done)
'72 Honda CT90 trail (resto I started 10 years ago, almost done :lol: )
'72 Honda CL100 (runs, one of my favorites)
'72 Triumph Bonneville 650 (basket case)
'81 Kawasaki KM100 (for sale, runs)
'82 Suzuki GS550 (runs, fate is uncertain- sell?)
'85 Honda XR80 (basket case when i got it, nice little bike now)

those were the bikes, here's the trikes / quads:

'79 Honda ATC70 (for sale, runs)
'86 Honda ATC110 (freebie from a friend, needs work)
'87 Honda TRX125 (for sale, runs)
'87 Honda TRX250X (runs good)
'87 Honda TRX250X (engine out- needs trans work)
'89 Yamaha Blaster 200 (just bought last week- this thing is an animal!!)
'04 Chinese honda-clone 50cc quad
'06 Chinese honda-clone 110cc quad

and now, the snowmobiles:

'72 Scorpion Stinger 400 (I upgraded it to a 440, not bad for a $50 sled)
'81 Polaris Cutlass 440 (decent, $300 sled that hasn't let me down yet)
'89 Ski Doo Formula Plus 521 (needs work)

In case you couldn't tell, I like to tinker with things. These are just a few of the toys I have collected over the last 17 years. There are tons of engines, power equipment of all sorts, and a few too many cars to list here. My garage is like a playground of internal combustion. :D

1976 Honda cb400f super sport, 1978 honda xl125, recently sold a 1968 Yamaha as2 two stroker, looking for a kawasaki h1 or h2 triple, or Yammy rd 350-400. - Drew, you have quite the collection, and not too long ago, I gave away a ct90 trail, it would have been a great parts bike for ya. Sorry.

Actually I should clarify that CB360 is actually a CL360, I forgot about the pipes and suspension.

Current bikes:
04 599 (somehow, through blind luck, I ended up with the first one built for export to Canada--and possibly all of North America--. It was a Christmas present from my wife in Dec. '03. 8)
89 Yamaha RZ350-full fairing (my first street bike, what a little rocket! 2-strokes rock! a basket case when I bought it. now it looks mint.)
90 RZ350 (project bike- I want to build a naked version)
05 Honda CRF50 (so much fun, I bought 2 of them)
07 Yamaha Banshee ATV (basically an RZ350 engine in a four-wheeler)
And I'm trying to buy a '73 Kawasaki S1 ( for those not in the know, it's a 250 cc 2-stroke triple-a baby H2) I have a real soft spot for small displacement bikes.

Bikes I'd like to add to the garage:
Too many to list, but here's a few, all Hondas: CB400 FOUR, CB400A, CB1, Hawk GT 650, NS400R.

Previous bikes/atvs:
77 Honda XL 175
93 Kawasaki EX 500 (wife's bike)
87 Honda TRX250X
00 TRX300EX
01 TRX300EX (wife's bike)
01 TRX400EX

Drew, I'm jealous of your collection...
