Wheelnut says hi
« on: May 09, 2009, 05:50:05 PM »
I just found this forum ... what great timing! I also just started restoration on a 74 CB350F. Mechanically, it's in great shape with only 1500 miles. But, there's some rust, and some parts will have to be replaced or re-chromed. My goal is to have it running for the season and work on the manageable rust one part at a time. Then do a tear down for re-coating the frame and other painted parts next winter. At least I'll have some fun before the heavy lifting starts.

Nice to be here.

Welcome, Wheelnut.  Sounds like you have a good plan.  Great timing indeed, 'tis the season for swap meets, start collecting non-rusty parts NOW and come winter your project should move along nice and quick.

Make sure to get new tires on there, unless it has recent ones.  And yes please do post some pics.  :)

cheers
