I am looking for a bike from my childhood.

It was a honda probably pre 1976? tanks was darker green and either whitle or of off white.
this is all I can remember. I was my brothers bike and I always remember that bike out of all the ones he had.

what could it be? what is it? what year? any info would be helpful. I might try and get one for ol time sakes

thanks

Well it looked more like the first bike. Now that I think about it the tank I remember looked somewhere between the '70 cb and an older honda dream cb tank. Man I wish my memory was better. I am still looking.

thanks for the pics. I am doing some more searching

Were there rubber knee pads on the tank?

There used to be a website that had ID numbers and pics (similar to the Honda ID Guide, but in color), but I can't remember where it is.

The CB350 K0/K1/K2 all had green as a choice, all had a good deal of white on the tanks.
The K0/K1 both had rubber knee pads, not the K2. the K2 was a candy green, while the K0/K1 were just plain ol' green.

Production years were 1968-69 for K0, 1969 for K1, 1970 for K2.
K0/K1 were sold concurrently through 1969, similar to the way CB450 K2/K3 were both sold in 1970.

Hope this helps - although, the CB175 K4/K5 (1970-71) sported a similar paint scheme, in candy green.

hey guys,

thanks for the help. I still can not figure this one out. It was either a 69 cb350. But the tank I remember looked more like an old cb77. maybe it was repainted? I am still leaning towards the '69

thanks for all your help

I'm not seeing a pic either.Show the pic...........you got our curiousity now!!!!

Early 350 was a DARK green & white.

350s had a metal loop ahead of the riser bolts to hold cables, I think seat flipped up with hinge on the back, shifter had a likage.. some had a cover on the engine near top said type 1... they had horizontal metal braces along the underneath of the upper arch of the rear fender. Did it have a 10,500 redline?..toolbox??

Was it high or low pipe?

mrbreeze · « **Reply #14 on:** May 06, 2008, 10:13:22 PM »

I'd still like to see the picture. I would recognize it in a heartbeat. High pipe CL....low pipe CB.

cb(r) · « **Reply #15 on:** May 07, 2008, 06:16:28 AM »

well it was darker green and a low pipe. for some reason I can not remember chrome on the tank. On the other hand the tank looked like an old dream.
just had a flash back. It was darker green I thought it had a dream badge with the honda wings but it did not. It did however have rubber pads. I am almost postive now that it was the early cb350. I still would like to see the pics that were supposed to be posted.

ya I know it was not the pic you sent. It was closer to the one Klark kent sent

Early 350 had a nice wing emblen set into the tank, not a round plastic one.. and no kneepads..

If it had pads, probably had round plastic emblems with wings, and was a 305 or smaller.

Aha I was wrong!

i think my 69 was repainted and hadno pads, I know the 68 CL had the wing, but no pads.

well if this bike did not have the stripe on the tank with honda and it was green it would be it. I double checked your Motorera cite again I am 99% positive that the bike I remember my brother having was the '68 super sport K0. It did come in green and white. would anyone have a side view picture of a Honda Super Sport 350 CB350K0 in green?

thanks guys!

1968-69 Honda Super Sport 350 (CB350K0)

hahnda · « **Reply #22 on:** May 08, 2008, 08:07:11 AM »

Can't find one in green.

mrbreeze · « **Reply #23 on:** May 08, 2008, 06:29:14 PM »

I do remember that 350 having the knee pads. So it was the 68 only?. And I beleive thats the first year because I had a 67 305 Scrambler.

As I pointed out in my previous post -
"The CB350 K0/K1/K2 all had green as a choice, all had a good deal of white on the tanks.
The K0/K1 both had rubber knee pads, not the K2. the K2 was a candy green, while the K0/K1 were just plain ol' green.
