Buying a CB360t (is this worth it?)

[justin_labayen]

A friend of a friend is selling his CB360t. Bike looks like it was built well. It has tarozzi clip ons, new tires, new mufflers, "cafe" seat", aftermarket tach/speedo, starter delete. The engine doesn't leak and starts on first kick.

He is asking $2200.

Is it worth the price? He is also letting me do payments, so that's a plus.

A little pricey even for where I live, in southern California that thing would go in a few days at that price though. $2000 would be fair IMO

Heh.. here in Vancouver that would go for $3-$3.5k. Funny hearing you say that's expensive.

Assuming its really clean that is a solid price. Ditch that seat though...

Ditching the seat for sure! Doing a brat style seat and CL scrambler pipes

Thanks for the response guys!

lol. I just sold all mine for 500 each. They were all basketcases but still. I'd pay that if they were really nicely rebuilt and wanted a cb360 bad enough. That ones pretty sweet except for the seat. God aweful. Cam chain tensioners are extremely hard to find too so make sure those are good to go before buying one OR you may have one expensive paperweight. There are a few guys working on designing aftermarket ones though so keep fingers crossed.

It's a '76. So hopefully they did the recall. I need to check the stamping just to make sure

It looks very clean, locally I'd expect that in the $1500-$2000 range, if payments are what you need or that will help you get the bike you want then go for it. It looks well cared for.

$2000 for a decent runner that is pretty much done and clean looking? I'd buy it.

It depends on what you comfortable with and plan on doing. I wanted an old bike to tinker with and make my own. At the same time 2000 is a decent down payment on a new bike that needs nothing

I bought mine as a non runner for a few hundred a couple years ago. You get what you pay for. I stopped keeping track of reciepts after $3000. lol I try not to think about it...

 

[legendary_rider]

OOhhh ouch. Well I guess I've got over 3000 in my 350 now.

It's complete and mostly the way you want it so price isn't too bad. I won't even think about how much I have in mine.
Brendon's has had extensive modifications and would probably be up around 7~7.5K if he was paying for every bit of work and advice/supervision

Looks clean and $2K is not bad. The seat is just wrong though. Same model as mine.
