Title: Bikes to the swap meet
Post by: FAT-TOY on August 03, 2014, 07:52:54 pm

 Might take these 2 Hondas over to Cessnock swap next saturday.
  The red 1976 cr125 has a Mikuni carb, the seat is covered with a bit of plastic and it has no piston it would need a total rebuild or use for parts.
 The 1975 elsinore cr125m is I think a more desirable model but also in poor condition, it has a good seat, it only has one side cover and that is cracked, the carb is missing in the photo but I have most of it (missing bowl) The previous owner took it off,  fitted his mates carbi and he told me it started and run ok, I didn't see that so I don't know.
  So what sort of money should I put on each of them.

looking at the 75 model it is a bit hard to tell but the Head appears to be of an MT 125, as the head fins are scoloped away to suit an up pipe,
so you may need to check on the rest of the motor to decide value.
but the tanks look pretty straight which is a bonus

My personal opinion is that I feel I could get $800-$1000 for each of these bikes using a few different web sites for exposure. At a swap though $400-$600 is prob more likely the figure you'll have to be happy with to ensure they don't end up going home the same way they came, with you!! ;D
