Looks like theres an HB-212 sitting there too. I also spy a shredder and the extra heavy duty tiller. Lots of stuff for sure.

Yes, going through the collection will keep you busy for awhile. Seeing that Honda step through in the photo takes me back to my youth. It was my first motorcycle that I got when I turned 13. My was only 55 cc. The one in the photo looks like a trail 90.

I don't know man. He has bequeathed a generous collection to someone that he thinks will appreciate it. You selling it to give him some cash might be insulting and a bummer for him.

 

Do what you think is right, but a dying man's wishes are just that. Do your best to ascertain what he really wants. Don't cheapen the offer.

Edit:

I went to a Korean war vet's funeral today. I used to bowl with him. Like within the last few months. He bequeathed me nothing, but I hope I brought some happiness to his life.

He is  NOT dying. He is just down sizing ,he can't do any more wrenching , he wants to go crabbing a fishing and wanted me to keep them or sale them. He wanted me to just take them .but I am just wanting to get him some money so he can do that . he said that would be great and to do so..  I am just doing what he asked me to do. just helping a good friend out . I will keep 2 or 3 of them.  He be coming home tomorrow and I will see him and talk more about them.   Sorry I should have I was said given some tractors.

Welcome back Jim.  Haven't seen you on here in a while. Good luck in your endeavors with this lot of equipment.  You know what most of it it is worth.  You should do fine earning $ for the gentleman.  Just takes time to get it all organized, described accurately, pictures taken & posted.  Then wait.  It will all sell if you chose.
