Not a Kwak but a good deal was created by Kellen79_650
So as all good classic bikes owners do, I was perusing craigslist the other day and ended up buying a 1973 Honda CB350 for $200. Bike is complete and runs well, doesn't have tabs but that won't be a problem. Anyway, thought you guys would appreciate a good deal even if it was on a Honda. I'm in the Middle East right now with the Air Force, but looking forward to my new purchase when I get home.

Not bad at all; good score. Even if you don't find a use for it, you can still sell it for at least a couple of times what you paid when summer rolls back around.

For two bones, that is a heckuva a good deal for a bike that is all there with what appears to be original paint. The little 350 twins were reliable and very popular back in the late 70's and early 80's.
It will make a nice first bike for a newbie rider looking and would probably fetch close to $1000 in my neck of the woods in the springtime as there are not very many options for small, starter bikes in the market any more.

1980 kz750E1, Delkevic exhaust

Great deal. For $200 I'd have jumped at it. It looks to be pretty much all original. It's like a bigger version of a CB 250 I once had. Reliable, SOCH and easy to take apart.
Remember to post some pics when you get her cleaned up and running
