I totally agree with you on this one. I used to do the same thing kick start my bike in flip-flops because that is the only footwear that will fit my foot because i have big very very extremely wide feet with very chubby fat wide toes that are equally straight across making my foot very very wide at 6 1/2 inches wide from my big toe to my lil toe. My friends thought I was very crazy for riding a bike with flip flops on. But I tell them it's either flip-flops or I go barefooted 👣 cuz there's no other Footwear out there that will fit my foot.

@@1980bwc " LOL" it's definitely crazy. I have even driven my bike as far as 1100 miles to Daytona Bike Week in flip flops. I have 2 foot brace attached to the bike so when I'm riding it I can put my feet up. When I'm on the interstate passing people their face expressions when they see a chubby fat dude on a bike with flip flops on with very extremely wide feet & chubby fat wide toes that are equally straight across they stare at me with this shocking looking face. Even had one Dude ride beside me because he couldn't believe how wide my foot was & how the flip flop stay on my feet because I had my feet propped up while riding down the interstate at 75 miles an hour.

I had a friend who had an old gold wing with really bad tires on it. I brought it to his attention , but he blew it off and hit the highway. The rear tire blew and he was able to bring the bike to a stop, but was run over by oncoming traffic according to witnesses. He was dragged several feet before the driver stopped. He passed away, so I’m glad you are taking care of those.

The third position on the key switch is for the parking light. (Believe it or not) You can park the bike and leave the rear light on so it's visible, to avoid someone running into it I guess. I was 16 and found one of these rusting behind a buddy's garage. the same bike but the street version, not a scrambler. I got it running and was so happy to putt around on it. Led to a lifetime wasted messing with old machines. Wonderful memories.

When I was 20, I bought 2 non running CB 350's and even though I knew nothing, I was able to combine them to make one running bike. I love those old Honda's. My Dad had an old 550-4. I remember some days of riding my bike in the rain around town and just doing flat track power slides around every corner. What a blast, it's a miracle that I never dumped it.

As has already been said, the 3 position is generally your rear tail light. Used primarily while stranded, kind of like a marker light. But, can be configured to be the 2nd On position and will activate all lights on the bike. Most bikes don't have this feature anymore, but it seemed legitimate in the past.

I will never be a mechanic but I think it's good to learn. I had to ride in the winter. It wasn't fun or very safe but I can't stay home for long slippery roads or not.

Sleeper, Everyone loves those old Honda and Yamaha bikes. They are a blast to ride. You also have something worth a pretty penny in the collectors market. By the time your done, You’ll get a lot more than the bike and parts cost you. As with most restorations, you never get paid enough for the hours you put into it. The biggest problem is Ralphy wanting to bring that on the trails when he’s 14-15 years old.

In 1971 after returning from the Vietnam war, I was lucky enough to buy a used mint low miles 1967 CB450 for $500 dollars. All black in color except for chrome fenders, chrome side covers, and a chrome exhaust. On mine, the exhaust was different than others I had seen. It had 2 scrambler style pipes, one on each side. Cool looking bike. I absolutely loved that bike. I drove that bike for 4 years, didn`t lay a wrench on it. Enjoy yours Sleeperdude, they are a blast.

Hey Sleeperdude! Great work on a cycle from the era when I rode Triumphs. A tip for the future when changing casings: Lay the new casing on the floor & then place the inner tube in position, slightly inflated within the casing. Then add the cycle wheel & proceed as usual with the levers. Use soapy water as a lube. Sure saves a lot of skin from your knuckles this way & it's much easier! Same for push bikes as well. Keep up the great work but I can't help thinking you'd be struggling without the assistance of Ralphy & Rocky!

I used to ride mine from Brunswick, Maine to Eastern Connecticut where I grew up. The 350CL maxed out for me at about 85. I used to haul ass but had to stop a lot for gas. I always kept my tuned so it would make the redline of 10500 When I was in the Navy a bunch of us had CL350s and one guy had a Triumph and every time we stopped he had to fiddle with something. He bought it in England and drove it to the base he was at in Sicily, except for ferry crossings. He then brought it to Maine. I have a nice picture of parked on the rocky coast of Maine. BTW, that looked like a military base sticker on the front fork, that’s where I had mine back in the day.

Use CLR and 0000 steel wool to clean rust off chrome. Also, that squeal is your starter bendix not disengaging because the shaft needs lubing.

You can paint the engine side covers silver or use hammerite paint and it wii not peel off.I restored one of thoes 350 years ago and i painted the frame black and the tank red with a two " wide black stripe just off to one side of center of the tank the length of it .

rubber hose works well start casings on between rim and casing bead to hold in place. Old leaf spring works well also. They have rounded ends and plenty of leverage.

This sure brings back memories of our early 1970's Honda SL motorbikes. Glad to see like with old cars, parts aren't too hard to find. That 3rd position on the key is probably like an ACC position would be on a car. I'm thinking you can run your light without engine running or ignition coil energized.

When I was 16 I had a 69 mach 1 mustang ( wish I still had it) and one day I got the new tires dad had just bought spinning and smoking, I watched the speedometer pas 110 but I was barely moving! When dad saw all the rubber coating the wheel wells he said" when you buy your own tires I bet you won't do that" and you know what? Dad was right!

I was cringing a bit watching Ralphie clean the inside of that mud guard on the bare concrete floor,with that bubble wrap available just next to him, hope it didn't scrape the top chrome too much.went watching further and saw he had put the plastic under the fender, well done, hopefully not too late. Ralphie is a hard working young man, just like his dad.

My 1973 Honda SL125 was a VERY dependable bike. I kept it until 1987. Had TONS of fun with it. I just got too tall for it. Saw it for sale on Ebay once. It was in Wisconsin?? I knew it went to Canada for a while..
