Wow! A 1970 Honda CB 350!Does this Gem bring back some fond memories. I owned a 1968 Honda CB 350, and it took me on many Adventures for a young man still in High School. Sadly, I rode the poor thing into the Ground. By the time I was done with it, it was more than ready for the Junk Yard. I've thought about acquiring a Similar Vintage Honda CB 450 to refurbish back to almost New condition. These Bikes are hard to come by, in any sort of condition worth putting money into it. Lots of them battered and beat up and left to rust in someone's back yard. Rust is the enemy of us all! Thanks for the Video. Brought back some good memories.

These old Honda’s are pretty bulletproof…..kinda surprised of how low the mileage is though, good find Joe. I had a ‘74 CB360t bought for $75 and a (high mileage) ‘71 CL350 Scrambler that was given to me after a few different “mechanics” couldn’t get it to run right. Turns out valves needed adjusting, was backfiring through the intake on the RH cylinder. Glad to see both sidecovers still on it as those are usually the first thing gone from them! The airboxes shouldn’t cost more than $75/pair though, pretty easy to find used online.

i would leave the paint alone. chances are you'll damage the paint underneath, trying to remove the blue. Also, makes sure all carb adjustments are perfectly the same on both carbs. you need to also either locate an original breather box and tubes, or run something thats the same on both carbs. nice little find. would be a good little bike to hit the gas station to pick up some milk or snacks.

In 1972 I bought a '71 CB350, with a red and white tank. It was immaculate, private owner seller, a coworker, and I loved the sound, the handling and how just plain fun and useful it was. I paid $700 and was so poor at the time I financed it through my cresit union. (Was earning about $3 an hour at the time! Rent on my cute 1-bedroom apartment was $90.) My 2 roomates when I moved out of the bungalow both had 450s, but I was skinny, so was able to keep up... LOL!

I’m wondering what it’d be worth. I can never find any online. Mine doesn’t have title but I can always file for a lost title since it’s from 76
@colinculverwell325 3 жыл бұрын
That was a good find pretty complete. You wouldn't get one for that price in the UK. I'd try and find an airbox for it. CV carbs are a pain to set up with pods. Treat yourself before your next project. Get yourself one of the remote workshop fuel tanks, they're cheap enough. Much easier, and safer, than pouring fuel down a pipe with a jug. The fuel tap is probably the right one. There should be a nut that screws to the tap and the tank. That's what you are missing.

Hi Joe, the paint Scheme on that bike is red at the top white at the bottom and the side covers are white with the emblem in the middle some of the bikes had those knee pads on the tank some did not I would think the earlier models did in the later models did not. Man-o-man if you could get your hands on a Scrambler of that year and cc size you would be having a ball with that I believe those were sl350 maybe that could have been CL, I know the smaller bikes I had an sl70 when I was just a young kid and that was one of the coolest bikes out. I think far better than the trail 70 because it looked like a big motorcycle.

I found a cm200t from 82, guy said the engine was seized and nothing worked. When i got there it was rough, rusted and gross. Tires in that stuck in one place for way to long condition. Gave him 300$ for it. It only had 1600 miles on it so i thought it was weird that the engine had seized. Got it in my garage, and pulled the tank, grabbed the carb, realized it was in gear, dropped it into neutral and it spun no problem. So i changed the oil and hooked it to a lawn mower battery. Found the real problem and porbably why the bike was parked, the starter solenoid went bad, so i just jumped the cables onto the other side. A little starter fluid had it running on a single piston. After taking everything apart, cleaning connections, polishing the chrome, airing the original tires and replacing the brake pads everthing ran like a dream. I pulled it apart and repainted over the winter and now i have put 2k miles on it just putzing around town and then using it occasionally for commute when my intruder is being worked on.

Getting an old barn find running should NEVER be the first priority. There are so many things that could be wrong with the engine, the first priority should be a thorough check to determine if the engine is sound. One broken piston ring or a stuck valve could cause untold expensive damage if you attempt to start it.
@MakinEndsMeet69 3 жыл бұрын
You need to set those carbs with vacuum gauges to get them exactly precise. Those Hondas for jdms finest, definitely not like the cheap chinesium bikes which are the same exact cast that was basically stolen or sold over the years. Definitely not the same quality.
