No relation to seller, but this bike certainly belongs in this thread:

https://wichita.craigslist.org/mcy/4922822941.html

1971 Honda CB with a tree through it - $425 (Wichita,KS)

"I have a friend that has this now. Cut it out of the woods. It's in pretty good shape except for the tires and some rust. Good for parts. Good to restore as well.....but no title. The oil covers are the only parts that are not on it. Call me to see it. Have to set up appt with him when he is home."

Very cool thread. It's amazing how much more emotion accompanies these pics, versus say something else that's antiquey and abandoned. Maybe it's just that we all appreciate the connection to our rides and the good times that come along with them. There's a bit of an "if only these bikes could talk" feeling that I get.
