Your wife's bike ? Heck if it were me, I'd keep that one for myself !

The 305 Honda board is a good resource for all older Honda's (not just 305's) - the direct link is:

I had one of those and gave it to a friend of mine, i think he still has it? I can ask him and whatever parts you need I can get, as long as he still has it, it was the exact same bike we had it running and he was going to give it to his girl and she decided she didnt want it so it just sat in his back yard so I cant be sure what shape the stuff is in, but its all there... ill post back after i get ahold of him, I love old hondas, sorry i cant help it I know this is a suzuki site but you gotta hand it to honda back in the day(early 60's) they were pretty far ahead of the other guys.. why do you need a carb? looks like it has one?

that would be great. there is a ccollector here who might have a carb but i hear his prices are pretty rough. where are you located? i may just buy the whole bike from you?
yeah i want to keep it for myself but she would have never allowed that, hence the "gift"

. im on honda305, they said "theres not a whole lot of 160's on here cause this is mainly a 305 forum" lol.

any way she is close to being running and road worthy. just need a carb and few other things. thanks guys. ill post pics again after fresh paint.

I'm located in Texas, I will get ahold of the guy that has the bike and see if he Still wants it, but I'm sure if you just need parts it should not be a problem, as soon as I talk to him I will let you know, I had fun riding it when I had it, and easy to work on, single points one carb 360 crank and odd front suspension but cool cus you never see that anymore...
