skos, I don't know if that is the sort of thing members here try to keep up with. For you first post I would rather think you would be more interested in intoducing yourself. Mabey describing your bike or likes and dislikes of the 305 we all love so much. A forum is kinda like a club,when you are a welcomed new member, you kinda want to find out what it and its members are all about.Get it? Good luck on your next try. Kustommusic

100% agree with kustom on this.
being a forum of enthusiast for the bike, it seems kind of silly to ask us how much you can sell your bike for. kinda devalues the whole approach we take.

I asked the question because my neighbors don’t get it.

Hi, I am Steve. From Chicago, moved to Texas & love it. I am a 2 wheel fanatic! Been riding dirt bikes all my life. I have an old Triumph year 2000 Sprint, KX250 and a Harley that I brought back to life. I love old school and just bought a 1965 Honda CA77 Dream. I ride all bikes & compete in a couple local mountain bike races.

Getting back to the question. People who don’t get it think. They ask,” why did you buy that piece of @#$%?” I personally see beauty. I see, wow how much fun can I have on that. I see wow how much fun will it be to fix her up. So, because a lot of people just don’t get us, sometime you need to talk in terms that they understand. The dollars. I did also buy this bike for the investment. My 401K is a money hole. So why not put some 401K money to something that I love AND have an investment.

Gun & kustommusic, please lighten up a bit. Know the whole story before you prosecute me. I am sorry if I offended or insulted you guys in any way. It is not my intent.

I have been riding 2 wheels for over 30years and I hope to go another 30years. I do have a passion for anything with 2 wheels!

I have bought old Junkers, fixed them up, and sold them to have the money to get what I really want. I hope that clears the question up a bit. Again, sorry if I offended or insulted anyone.

Skos,The bike I referred to earlier was a fully restored to showroom condition.
I did an amatuer restoration on mine and sold it for $2,900.I recouped the majority of my investment and made a lot of extra cash buying and reselling parts.
Like you said it was a lot of fun restoring,hunting parts and making new friends from all over the country.

One tip when looking for restoration parts beware of Apex Cycle. A lot of people left bad reviews about old Tom on this forum. Mike
