CB350f Triple Tree
« on: July 22, 2014, 07:08:27 AM »
Hi all,

My 350f project has been fix one thing, find two more that need fixing! Upon re-installation of my forks I have noticed a pretty significant crack on the upper triple tree. I have searched dss and ebay with no luck. My question is whether I can directly replace my upper tree with one from a 400f?? Would I need to replace the steering stem and lower tree as well to go with it or is this not an option?

Help, as always, is greatly appreciated.

You'll only need the upper tree.  I dont know about using 400F parts and if they fit.
Post in the parts wanted section of the forum.
ebay is a good source, you just have to keep checking....

Does anybody know if the upper triple tree from a cb350 twin has the same fork size/spacing? Would it work?

I had the exact same problem. I installed an old 400f aluminium tripletree on my 350f.
Fits like a glove  ;)
