Does anybody have an idea what a 1976 Honda TL125 in very good condition would be worth? I have one but have no idea where to market it. I think it's worth a few bucks due to it's condition (no dent,scratches,seat perfect) but I have never sold a vintage bike and need some advice as how to go about it.

what is it worth to you. Put it out there for that and then see if you get any takers.

I just did a quick search and found one for sale for $900 and another one for 2000 euros. FWIW. Good luck.

Go to http://gl1800riders.com and post it in their want ads section. I'll bet it will be mighty popular. You'll need good pictures, though.

I'll go to my brothers tomorow and take a picture. It's been sitting in his garage next to his 73 Lincoln Towncar for the last 25 years. I don't think I'll be riding it anymore at this point. lol

This should be a picture of the bike. When it comes to posting pictures here I'm severely challenged. One correction. My brother and I checked the title today,it's a 1974 that he bought in 1976.

We are going to get it running. We looked at it closely yesterday when we took the pictures. The bike is in extremely good shape. The oil (mobil 1) was changed before it was put away 20 some years ago and the gas was drained. It will be something for us to do over the winter in between building a new engine for his 64 nova.

I hope you mean you drained the carburator. when storing a bike the gas tank should be filled to the brim, to keep the tank from rusting... unless its plastic like my RT.
