    I'm in love with the look of the old pressed steel framed bikes like this Honda 305

    Who else made similar built bikes?

    I have a Dream.

    No, seriously, I do. I think it's a '67. I know it's in pieces and the gas tank is missing. I'm pretty sure the pile-o-parts contains the chrome sideplates for said gas tank, though. I do not have a title.

    I'm pretty sure it's a 305. I'll double check at lunch time.

    Suzuki, Yamaha and Kawasaki all made bikes with pressed steel frames at one time or another, along with a bunch of other makes less common. I have a 1967 S-32 Suzuki 150cc out in the garage, it looks like this:
