So this guy is hiding out in my basement, I was told the engine is seized and has a few (ok a lot) of missing parts, but man would that be pro to have restored. I THINK its a CA77 but I'm not completely sure so if anyone can help me figure it out that would be awesome. It is probably going to be thrown out soon but was wondering if it was worth digging out and playing with.

 

personally unless you have ALOT of time and money to invest I'd say she is too far gone. But if you like challanges and have some extra change to drop into it go for it.

 

With some a good chunk o change to drop i would give it a go. But its pretty trashed. I would take the tank off and just clean it up and have it on display. That old emblem on the side of the tank is bada$$.

 

thats what i was thinkin....or let her sit there , out of the way and look cool...i dont think it wood be worth trying to restore, but what do i know....

 

That thing is cool, but would be a money pit to restore. I bought a Yamahe XS1100 a few years back that was in similar condition. I sunk $4K in it along with A LOT of elbow grease to get it running and pretty. I sold it for $1200...

 

Well I don't have much money so maybe I can make something out of it, someone said something about using the tank, maybe I can get creative and make some sort of decoration for the man room "more or less the Office or garage".

 

CA77, also known as the Honda Dream. It was the sedate sibling of the CB77 Superhawk and CL77 Scrambler. It came with the lower performance single-carb 305cc parallel twin with a normal ignition spacing compared to the CB/CL(which fire the cylinders 180° apart).

It's not my cup of tea, but there is definitely a market for them and their parts. For instance, my old man would probably like to have those badges on the tank. You'll have to clean a lot of that rodent urine off of it no matter what you do with it.

 

i knew someone wood chime in with the facts... thanks, i wanted to know what it was too...
