Remember me saying they fetched good money these days? Check out the
one I'm auctioning right now:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=260261320522

£51, FFS, and it doesn't time out until Sunday evening.

Anyone want to bet whether it'll make three figures? I'm startled,
actually, because while I knew they were in demand, I thought it'd
make £40, maybe a tad more.

£975 for the both wanted (advertised on the RD forum).

Are these worth doing up? I know next to eff all about old Hondas.

Could be something like an RT60 but the fairing is a bit too rounded and
exhausts are different (these could both be non-standard)

http://www.ozebook.com/compendium/suzi/rt60.htm

More likely to be a faired T20

T20 Super Six

Excellent bike, 90mph and reliable with it. My Dad had one from new in
1967.

Well, it's a twin[2], so that narrows the choice down to a 125, a 250,
a 315 or a 500. Assuming it's based on a street bike as the basic equipment
suggests.

  FS: SO Jawa 350

I really wanted one of these and picked this one up recently.
Spent a load of time and cash on fettling only to find that the
lefthand kickstart aggravates the arthritis in my left hip so
it has to go.

Its a 1991 TS350 onna J plate. These Czeck 2 smokes have a reputation
for reliability so it will make someone a nice commuter ratbike or
winter hack. Spares are not a problem. Rides well, pulled nicely
up to around 75 on the M5 today so plenty enough for a commuter.
Legal for 33bhp restricted licences.

Offering it here before putting it on fleabay, UKP350 sounds about
right, located near Weston Super Mare.

The good bits :-
Only 17100 recorded miles, and the engine wear etc is consistant with
this. I opened it up to fix a noise and found that one cylinder was
short of a roller in the little end so I fitted nice new caged rollers
both sides.
New battery, new cables for clutch, throttle and front brake.
Long tax & MOT.
Tidy for the year.
