Oh! No way! I bought a bunch of bikes from Norths Service back in the day (crica early 80's). A true old school family dealership. Bought my first new bike there. They helped me through my first wreck and dealing with the insurance company. Thanks for the blast from the past.
Got a blue one is like new still. Bought years ago lightly used has a clutch and gears tho. Love bikes keep them when i get another, gettin old 61 but still riding 😊
@@motorcyclerewind I bought it in 2005 for $750 and it only had less than 3000 miles so I thought it was a steal. Just runs so smoothly and it will cruise easily at 60 tp 65 mph which is plenty fast for me. I like riding the country black top roads that don't have alot of traffic and the riding season here in Florida is pretty long unlike Pennsylvania where I'm from but been in FL since 1986 and love it here. I can take the heat better than the cold. I also have a 80 MGB that is close to being done. I am retiring at years end and plan on finishing it to enjoy also. I mentioned this because I spotted one in your garage. Enjoy your videos. What is the best way to clean up aluminum on my Honda?
Please help me! I recently acquired a 78 cb400a and It needs some work before I can get it on the road. Im new to bikes and my friend gave this to me as a project he didnt have time for. Your guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Congrats on your new bike. Email MotorcycleRewind@gmail.com or on Instagram. In the mean time here is a link to a shop manual tinyurl.com/43878zf8 Does the engine turn? Does it have spark? What’s the condition of the carbs? Reach out I will do what I can to help you out. Thanks for watching.
I bought Keri’s 2 years ago and paid 1,200 bucks. It was in Tampa and had it shipped up. So all in about 1,700. Then put tires and bought some better condition side covers. The only thing to make sure you check is ignition. It’s ok if it doesn’t run because of carbs. But the Hondamatic’s have some model only pieces and parts. The ignition system is one and they can be pricey. Prices are all over the place. Send me pics and details via motorcyckerewind@gmail.com or on Instagram.

Wow!!! That is so cool.
These are awesome little bikes 👏👏
All you have to do is ride it to appreciate it!
I love that Hondamatic 400. Great work. Put those bikes back on the road.
Such a great motorcycle. So much fun to ride.
Just bought the exact same bike today!6/16/23. Paid $350.00. Was in a garage for 15 years! Need to get it running!
Great price. Let me know if you need some support while getting it going.
No music just pure engine sound! Love it!
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
Good repair Eric!
Thanks Zach!!!

Great looking little bike and it looks in good condition. Such a shame the previous owner butchered the exhausts like that though.
I know. Casually looking for replacements.
I may pick one of these up to do some repair on my CT90 plastics
Harbor freight has the welder with the plastic and mesh. Or you can get them both from Amazon!
Is this bike for sale? Love the Hondamatics!
Unfortunately, if I sold this one I would be in deep doodoo 💩. It is my wife, Keri’s.

I believe it was an under appreciated motorcycle. So much fun to ride.
I thinking about buying one of these for a project. What do you think is a good price for one of these that ran about a year ago?
