Hey all, just joined, I'm completely new to bikes, and I bought three 72 CB350f's, two running well, and one running parts bike. I got the whole lot for under a grand, so I'm pretty happy. I've never owned a motorcycle before, so I know that diving head first into these is going to be interesting and painfull, but I think that between my dad, myself and you guys, I'll be okay.
I'll start a build post in a sec for the bikes, but I wanted to give an idea of who I am. I'm 22, I run the waterfront at a summer camp, drive speedboats, etc. I have good chunk of experience in small engines, from RC boats with weedwhacker engines to go karts and buggys and the like. I love working with wood, I model boats from ply and doorskin, and I've worked as a carpenter's assistant. I've got a basement full of RC stuff, kind of like a fourth grader, but with bigger toys. If anyone wants any info on boats, planes, trucks, etc, let me know, I've been pretty heavy into RC for a while.
I'm moving back up north to Maine in a few days, where I'll have a decent garage and tools again, and the bikes waiting for me. I was so stoked to find this site/forum, everywhere else people crap all over the 350 fours and I happen to really like this bike in spite of it's flaws.
I'd love to have you guys input on my build, this forum has helped me with so much already, without a single post. Hopefully I can give back as much.
