I guess I would have settled for a rat-bike CB750 until I could afford something 'good' were it not for this forum.


What a waste that would have been.

What keeps this going so well is the unusual maturity of the people on the boards.  Bike boards are generally filled with bickering and I see very few cases of that here.  We also recognize that everyone has their own vision of what their bike should look like and we usually give a polite tip of the hat even when someone does really odd things to their SOHC (and I have seen some odd bikes on here).  It's a good forum with a variety of bikers and bike styles that all mesh together well.  This is by far my all time favortie forum and I enjoy checking up quite often, there's always something new to learn here.

If you click on the "Home" tab near the top, it will bring you to the list of all the different boards. That's where it lists the number of posts in each.

And YES, let's hear about this 15 year project of yours!!! Pics ARE a must!!  :D

            Well, I got my 350F from a small bike shop that was mostly a bike salvage and is turning into just a bike shop. So, now and then they kinda work on thinning out the salvage bikes (they actually junk them out, can you believe it?). A buddy of mine has some strong ties with them and he lets me know when and what is fixing to go. I had made it known that I'd like to have that 350 and even asked to buy it several times, but they wouldn't sell it! >:( It was just sitting there out in the weather. The gas tank was rotting away (and was gone, by the time I got it) The side covers were missing (I had a pair) the seat had rotted away (I need one of those), but the bike was pretty much complete otherwise. The motor turned over at first and was stuck when I got it, but it didn't take much to free it up. I've also got a CB400F that is in similar condition and have been kinda thinking about using the front and rear suspension (wheels and all) of an RZ350 "Rolling Chassis" on either the 350 or the 400. I thought it would be pretty wicked to build one of rhem with the monoshock rear suspension, front and rear disc brakes and those wheels. ;D Not sure about that though. May just sell the RZ for Honda Spending money. I'm already working between an 80' CB750K w/ sidecar, 77' CB550K "Cafe/CR Style" and a 63' CB77 Super Hawk projects with several more waiting their turn! Didn't intend to go on for so long about this, I have a tendency to get carried away when I start talking about bikes. ::) I'll get and post pictures when I can. ;)

Well KB02, when I thought about, my 15+ year project has actually been going on for 25.  I started tinkering when I got the bike in 1979 ???.  I posted in the open forum 'projects, gotta love 'em' with pics and discriptions.  And please make comments, I like feedback.

Enjoy!
