« on: April 14, 2012, 01:45:25 AM »
Howdy all
My first post here.
I have just got myself a CB350/4 and would like to known what mod's to get it going a bit better.
It is street ridden.
1.  cams
2.  bigger valves
3. big bores. can you use other model pistons or what after market on are available
4.  compression ratios
Etc etc
Cheers
Richard

The best bang for your buck would be to get on eBay/Craigslist and buy a 400F motor.

Drops right in.

+1

and the 400 has tons of go faster parts that are relatively easy to find, 460 kits, cams, carbs AND 6 speeds

350/4's never had much of a performance after-market

6 speed comes with the 400F motor :)

Tonnes of other options though like you mentioned. Hotting up a 350 would be a bit redundant given a 400F motor can be had for about $300.

Eugh! Yeah that is going to be hard. We don't have much choice here.

Might be a cam/piston/valve job then.

Metropolitan Motorcycle Spares in Sydney has supplied me with a stack of little parts for my CB400F. I wouldn't be surprised if they have a CB400F that they're parting out. Might pay to give them a call.
