Hello from New Zealand
« on: August 25, 2022, 05:07:31 PM »
Hello folks.

New to the Forum.
1974 CB350F owner. I live in Canterbury, New Zealand.
The motorcycles previous owner did a slight cafe mod and I'm in the process of restoring to original. Fortunately most of the original parts came with the bike.

Cheers.
 Gibbon.

Hi, Gibbon!
You have mates down there, also with 550, 350 and 750 versions of these bikes. And one who is now working on a CB360, trying to breathe life into it.
