Amazing story, Love the bike and the job you did there, hats off mate

WAY back when I was 15 I actually had that exact same bike road it every day! It had a matching full black vetter fairing on it really fast bike! My first real vehicle. Thanks for sharing nice job!

Loved 🍀the video! Hat's off to you. So nice of you to show the restored bike to the original owner's family. 👏

Oh Gawd! I miss that sound!!! I had 3 of these over the years. I bought my first one brand new in 1974, and rode the wheels off of it until 67,000+ miles when it would hardly run anymore. The second one I scored in Florida and pulled the original engine and replaced it with a 550 bottom end, and an 810 Powroll big-bore kit. It was an absolute beast of a sleeper, that would easily take down the formidable Kawasaki KZ900's of the day! The third one was meticulously rebuilt from a wreck I acquired in 2015, and outfitted with a few performance goodies, but basically kept the internals stock, with a cafe racer flair. It was my favorite, but I was forced to sell due to declining health conditions.😜 The little 350F was my absolute favorite of all the 4 cylinder Honda offerings from the 1970's!!!😄😍👍👍

I had a color green one when I was 17 or 18 it was my first bike that I coul use to travel I am from Tijuana I took it to Mazatlan, Los. Angeles and San Francisco many times many bikes later that will always be my favorite bike. Great video, gracias.

I recently purchased the exact same bike, 1974 black. Mine was last on the road in 1984! I have original bill of sale from 1974, 1 owner. Good job! Dale Swineheart, DeKalb, IL

What a cool story mate. My dad and I were lucky enough to bring one of these home recently. Rough but original and complete. Looking forward to hearing it sing.

Excellent work. The bike looks and sounds fantastic. Great story and so nice that you showed Bruce's family. ❤

Great job,show winning 😉,and beautiful taking it back to show the lady and her family 😌,sounds incredible ,looks fantastic ,well done m8

love these. i had a black and gold 350 four, and later a 400 four in high school. the 400 had a 6 speed trans

Awesome video. The end video reved up was the icing on the cake.

Just got one and I’m gonna try to rebuild it as well but number 1 goal is to have fun and enjoy the grind/ progress

Gorgeous, and I'm no mechanic either, but you killed it ! EDIT : I bet you're a mechanic now. I love the Bruce story and the generations that cried seeing it.

Beautiful job. That sounds so smooth. Excellent!

Beautiful job! I remember these when I was a young man. I rode a Suzuki 380 2 stroke, when I served in the Air Force, but a friend of mine had a Honda 350 4 like this one. That was back in the mid 1970’s.

You should submit this video to "Stories of Bike" on youtube. Great work. And you are a great citizen. My first bike was a red CB350F. I took it on trips that were hours away from home and I was only 14 or so, you could get a license in Arkansas for this size bike at 14. Lucked out on both counts. Super cool.

You did a wonderful job. Well done!

Awesome , have a 1973 cb350 4 and planning to restore it soon, thanks for showing tthe video.

Great video, real work of art....

Really cool, man. I'm considering getting one of these to restore locally.

Great job! Thanks for sharing!

The CB350F has less power than the two cylinder CB350, is more expensive, and is more difficult to maintain. Yet, I would prefer to have the CB350F. Great story on the restoration.

Nice story. I plan next week a testride with a Honda 350F !

Beautiful metal polishing...I've done a full restoration on a CB 450 and am now working on a '76 CB 400F. Its slow grinding work but deeply satisfying....Thanks for sharing the journey...

Thanks for sharing your restoration. I've got a green '73 that I'm itching to get back on the road. Hopefully, during the long winter here in Michigan, I'll be able to get it ready for its 50th birthday next year!

Really nice bike, she sounds beautiful I got a '73 350F myself Hopefully this summer she's all up and running again. (After many hours and euro's) The 350F's are beautiful bikes

Love the new color, thanks for sharing.

This is so cool man this is a amazing machine

What a great story and restoration, thanks for sharing .....

Great video Sir! Bike turned out beautifully...i have recently restored a 350 Four myself...its really a joy to ride!

Sweet bike good job

Startup at 8:52 Awesome job and really cool bike.

Very nice, That was my first road worthy bike I left home on it in 1978 I was the second owner. Later sold it to my brother and he rode it cross country more than I did, the speed limit was 55 then. He sold it with over 55000 miles on it. I wish I could buy one now.

Well done. Congrats. Respect. Encouraged. Thanks for sharing.

nice work!! I have this exact same bike just got this year. plan to ride as is for now and restore one day! great video

Your video is a constant inspiration for me. I paid WAY too much for a pile of crap 50k + mile 350F....it gives me a bad taste in mouth every time I look at it. Slowly but surely, I got it running perfectly and it's a blast to ride around town now. One of these days I'll do a restore, until then...it's original and a bit ugly. Thanks again for the motivation ! Well done CB350F ! (sounds great BTW)

Beautiful work. I have a 73 CB350F that I am just beginning to teardown for a full restoration. I hope it turns out almost as nice as yours.

Thank you sir That was an awesome video

Well done ✅

Awesome!

Great job you've done on the 350 f. Ant chance you could a vid on your sanding and polishing procedure? Thanks for all the info.

Awesome 🤩:Hunter

Beautiful bike and love your effort! (BTW, Chinese pistons and rings...hahahahha! )

A lot of work and really well done and the result is great 👍🏼 But for my feeling you should try to get the original 4 in 4 exhaust system. For my opinion it was the main difference between the beautifull CB350 four and the ugly CB400 four. Until now the original exhaust system is still an eye catcher 😉

Beautiful restoration! I had the exact same bike long ago (maroon) and I'm just beginning the search for another one!

Great job! I am just finishing up my 1974 Honda CB350 Four, and I am at the point of painting the tank and covers. Could you please tell me what paint color you used, because that looks like a dead match to the Glory Blue Black Metallic. I haven't been able to source the original paint color yet. Thank you, Charles

I have one I’m working on now! Not sure I’ll ever get it as nice as yours. What did you end up doing for the cracked triple tree? Mine is cracked too and I cannot find a replacement that wouldn’t require some kind of modification.

Sounds amazing. Is that a stock exhaust?

Great story. Bruce??

Is that a 400-4 in the background?

85 m.p.h tops?

Very nice job. Really should have went with the original color though, especially flake Matador red! Its less common than the Bacchus olive. Especially after so much time and using NOS parts.
