You won't get a satisfying price on eBay, I would guess. That bike is worth hanging on to. I remember them very well. They weren't much of a hit at the time, but they are really cool as a history piece.

Would it be tacky to ask what you paid for it? Just curious what these bikes are fetching at this point....

Enjoy!
Has a memory for me also. I got my first bike in 1969. It was a Yamaha 80. I chopped it all up and ran it in the dirt being only 12 at the time not much else I could do. I remember one of the guys I rode with showed up with a broacher for the SC250. It was bright red and I thought, man if I could just change enough water, clean some extra chicken pens and help the neighbor dehorn a few cows I could get one. Well I always found other things to spend money on so it never happened. Got one now!
