Congratulations on finishing her. It's nice to see a young guy to help keep our love of these old bikes going.

Congrats on getting her done!

I followed your thread and enjoyed the trip.  Looking forward to getting my own 350F brought back to life.

Thanks for the build thread inspiration.

Well I clocked 3,000 miles today since my last update, changed plugs and oil, reset points.  Fires on the spot!  Plugs weren't fouled even a little which makes me happy.  Im actually on vacation right now, but when I get home something big is in store for the 500 from hell build!

Nice Bike, man! and a big congrats on completing the build.

Glad to see a few guys on the forum that are relatively close-by to me. We will have to meet up someday. I'm new to this so I can use all the help/advice I can get.  :)

HUGE congrats to you for a nice redo of an old classic. Especially impressive that a 20 year old is doing something FAR more constructive then thumb-twiddling some video game in the basement. Way to go for doing something real and meaningful.

I had a 74 CB350F, brand new, back in high school bach in 74, and just last fall I bought a rebuilder 72 CB350F for $350. Bike #9 in the stable.

Holy old thread post Batman!  Just kidding but thank you it was a nice bike for sure. Long gone now though I'm afraid.  Caught the 550 bugs bad...
