   The Celica looks to be from the same era. Bike is sporting the "ultimate" seat of the day.

That's a late 70's CB400 - I used to have one of them, a '78 CB400A Hawk (my first motorcycle) - they also had 5 speed manual models. In their last couple years of production, Honda increased the displacement to 450CC. By then, I was riding CB750Fs (first a '76 SOHC, then I bought a new '81 DOHC in 1985).

I had a CM400A. Great mileage but it couldn't get over 70 with that transmission.

If it's a '78 it is a CB400A, not a CB450A. The 450's didn't come out until 81 or so.

500 bucks should get it in your garage.

I wouldn't go over that but if you desire, 1 grand easily.

Bike, Boat, indoor storage for my boat and a running Toyota convertible.  I started the car and it tries to go but the emergency brakes are stuck, when I released the E brake the cable just went slack and didn't release.

 Boat has compression but spark is very weak. All aluminum but needs floor and steering cables.

The bike was last ridden in 2011 and he drained the tank and carbs but left the cap loose so the tank could dry out so I just hope it's fluids, brakes and tires and cleaning/sealing the tank to get it back on the road.

Covered boat storage is $600 a year so I picked up the car, boat and bike for $1400 and the storage space is big enough to house all my new projects along with my boat.
