Hello fellow CB enthusiasts,
I've been owner of this Honda CB350f for a long time, right about 13 yrs). It was my first love after getting my bike license at the age of 20 and I've never had any reason to part with her.
"Restauration" is coming close to the end now, so I'm researching a few things about tuning / setting up ignition and carburation.
Hope to find a lot of information here, and potentially sharing a few of my experiences.
This is her:
I've done almost everything myself:
- Frame coated (had it done obviously)
- All parts going on cleaned and checked for wear and tear, renewed when needed.
- Brakes refurbished
- Forks refurbished
- Hagon's at the rear, but those have been placed over 10 yrs ago already
- Wheels refurbished and painted black (rear 1.85 rim on the front hub)
- Heidenau K36 (3.50 front, 4.10 back)
- Pigwatcher on the left bar
- CB400f engine and carbs (lost the 350 to a lean mixture)
- 4-2 exhaust with open cans (finally lost the 4-4 to rust)
- Shortened fenders front and back
- Small tail light
- Giuliari seat with new bespoke cover. Original with a twist.
It's not a cafe-racer, it's not original, it doesn't go in any frame. It's just my CB to my specs.
Hope to find loads of help and tips here, and potentially share a few of my experiences along the way.
