Should i buy this motocycle? (71 Honda CL350)?

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/mcy/5179790483.html

the owner let me know through email that "To my knowledges she's never been dropped, however in 40 years I wouldn't be surprised if she's tipped over a few times. In either case, she worked great before I let her sit in the garage for two long.

I just bought a a new battery for her and she just needs a carb cleaning to purr again. I just don't have the time for it. "

i can only see little rust spots on the suspension by the photos. I've ever owned a bike, or riden one. If there's anything obvious from the photo, let me know. I wish i could test drive it, cause that would be the best way to tell…

Do not buy any object that moves until you have seen it and tested it. Pictures are deceiving.

  • Why motocycle tire label rear/front? I'm a bit confused I was shopping for tires for ma Honda SH150 Scooter. All the tires I found are labeled front or rear and they do not come in pairs. Very confusing. I've always bought car tires with no such issues. Can I just buy two tires of the recommended size. And not worry about the front/rear thing… Help

  • Is a 1973 Honda CL350 a good started motorcycle? I'm a beginning learner and found that a Honda Scrambler or Honda Rebel were good starter bikes. I plan to buy one off of craigslist but I just don't know what kinda questions I should be asking the seller. Especially for older bikes like a 1973 Honda Scrambler. Any opinion or advice would really be appreciated since I have no friends or family that know anything about motorcycles.
