Hello from Canada
« on: September 22, 2025, 09:44:47 AM »
Hello, New member here. I have a CB350 and a SL350, and I just bought a red 1973 CB350 Four. The motor needs a little TLC but paint on the tank and side panels has survived nicely, it looks great for a 50 year old bike.

I'm not going to do anyting to radical to it, just a nice sympathetic restoration as a reliable runner. They were always one of my favourite bikes as a kid, and always promised myself I would get one someday.

John.
