I was wasting time after going to look at shipping containers and saw this antique store, so I decided to stop and look for antique hand crank grain mills. Things I restore...Don’t know much about the history. The seller has both titles.
So, what are they!

Those are some very cool old Hondas!

Old Hondas don't die or fade away. They get rebuilt by your grand kids! The 36yo ATC 70 pictured was restored (plastics and seat only, engine and xmission are still original) by my grand daughter after my son, who got it at the age of 4, thrashed the daylights out of it for years. After that it, drug horse paddocks for years and was the drunken wheelie contest machine when BBQ events got a little frisky. Damn thing started on second pull with fresh oil and gas after sitting for 20 something years. Grandson rides a 110 atc a few years younger that was a $200 barn find. I remember "grade school friends, " who's dad's were into bikes, dissing those Japanese junk Hondas pictured by OP. 🙂 IIRC it cost <$500 OTD.

Those look nice! We did a new paint job on my sons 1980 cmt-400 that he got from his grandpa.

He was complaining that it didn’t run the best and would not go over 50mph after pulling it out of his grandparents shed where it had sat for 10 years.

Rebuilt/cleaned the carbs, synced them back up, and now it hits the max of 85 on the speedometer, which is really scary!!

The Honda Dream was the 350, the 150's were called the Benley. They were also called the Baby Dream. CA95 is the designation if you need parts. I have one and did extensive research on it when I dug mine out of the old lady's attic storage. Ill get some more photos of mine in Tuxedo Black when I dig it out this summer! 2,400 original miles and license plate!

I have a friend who has close to if not exceeding 400 vintage Japanese vintage motorcycles with many being Honda. He also has several Trials and vintage hill climb bikes. He purchased the old successful Motorcycle dealer's old location and operates a working museum on the premises. I have a '69 Z50, '72 CT70 H and '77 XL70 on display there. The older 2 meticulously restored and the XL70 being a very low mile basement find. I also have numerous Vintage Vespa and Lambrettas and 2 Modern Vespas along with numerous Trials Bikes (Sherco), a late model GS1250 and Multistrada. It's gotten tough finding someone who knows the older 2 Stroke Bikes. They can be very finicky and unreliable without constant attention

So what you’re saying is we need a “vintage bike and tell” thread!?!?!

…on it.
