Sticking with Honda, how about a early CR125/250 Elsinore? Except you might be afraid to ride it for fear of breaking it once you'd restored it. Be a nice eye-opener in the back yard though.

I think you're setting yourself up for a disappointment approaching it from the "worth something" angle. Watch your local Craigslist and Ebay; you might see what people think is worth something in your area. But if your interest really includes messing around, as in off-road riding, get something that appeals to you for you and don't worry about it as an investment.
