RE: [Honda-C70] 1981 passport 145 miles!! close to mint

My first reaction is ride it ! Having had 2 sons in college I know that college kids have nowhere to store anything , except at mom & dads . And since Honda cubs are the most made motor cycle in the world [ all passports are cubs but not all cubs are passports] there is little likely hood anyone would consider your bike a collectors item. If it was still in the crate ,never sold with all the correct paper work , then it would be a collectors item in my opinion. That said if you did get a title you still need to find out what registration fees will be . If 30 years of back fees & penalties is too much for a college kid to swallow ,there is the last option of parting the bike out. Sad to say but " Frankenstein's monster " is what keeps the daily drivers alive & on the road. Hope I didn`t rain on your parade too hard . Good Luck ! Baby Huey PS why hasn`t anyone ever found a bike stored by an old man ????? Did he trade it for a boat ?
