Hey everyone my name is Josh and I live in Georgia. I recently picked up a 1972 Honda CB350F that needs some tlc for $50. The man I purchased it from was closing down his shop and everything had to go. He wanted $100, I offered $50. Long story short it now sits at my home, it does run and the transmission works fine. However, its missing some throttle components, the gas tank looks like hammered antelope, needs new tires, new blinkers, new rear fender, new headlight and other small components. Anyways... I digress. I'm hoping to learn how to restore this bike to full functionality so that I can get some seat time ASAP. I've owned two bikes before this one in the past (over 5 years ago) a Kawasaki 250 and then moved on to a Katana 600.

Welcome aboard! Start up a build thread! I'm building a CL350. They are a lot of fun to work on.

When disassembling bag, tag, organize and keep track of everything ;-)
