RE: Hondamatic
Cool. There is an old man, must be in his 80's that rides one of those around here all the time. Has a milk crate on the back and everything. Open face helmet, goggles.Has to have a zillion miles on it, but every time i see him he's going the other way and I'm in no place to turn around quickly to catch him. One of these days I'm going to though and then I hope to hear "the story".

40-year old motorcycle. Absolutely remarkable. I had those same Comstar wheels on my '78 CB750F.

RE: Hondamatic
the years have truly been kind to that beauty. am always amazed at all the old Honda's still around , most never rebuilt , smoke , knock , tap or leak oil.
thanks for the picture , wish i aged so well.....

The best part about growing up in Florida is i didn't have to move here when i got old.

Well, there's one for sale near Pittsburgh, PA. I've been seeing this on Craig's List for a while, and the price doesn't seem unreasonable if it's truly in good condition:

The video doesn't show the dents in the tank that the pictures on craigslist does. The video was done in 2016.
