Topic: OLDSTYLE CB350Four

[Ito]

Hi Guys,

I found shop"OLDSYTLE" custom CB350four on Yahoo Auction.
It is quite good shape.  But I prefer CB550four.
If you want to see in details,go to http://newwave.sakura.ne.jp/oldstyle/2011/09/cb350four_stage2.html

Ito from Japan.

all those mods for such a tiny widdle engine
HAHAHAHAH... 
can it really go fast enough to need 3 rotors? 

I dig the pipework, tho.

Thanks Ito!

Nice looking. Says bored up to 413cc but I doubt that it produces enough power to require 3 high dollar braking systems.   Asking  like 13,500usd

[wardenerd]

how much is 1,050,000 yen in USD?

[wardenerd]

its nice but at that price it better stop itself.

First, a stock 350F will break speed laws in every state.  And that one ain't close to stock.  Second, those brakes are about bling as much as they are about stopping.

You haters need to get over the "bigger is better" ideology.

....nothing in this thread so far is about hating that machine. 
just maybe the price tag. 
and nothing at all wrong with owning smaller displacement bikes 


...see my sig.

dual discs isnt always about sheer power, but added power (at least quality power) give more modulation....
id love to have a better braking system on my 350.... though a big front and any rear disc would prob do....

with 3 discs they must stay so cool ill bet you can touch them after hours of canyon riding (yes this is hyperbole)

While I use the term "haters", in this case I use it towards anyone who scoffs at the model.  I believe your use of the term

tiny widdle engine

says it all.

+1, balance is also another reason for twin discs, even if its only for appearances sake. I would put twin discs on a CT-90.....

Maybe a little education on Japanese registration and tax laws: Everything above 400 cc is ridiculously expensive in Tenno's country. And forget about foreign imports, they are taxed even worse!
That's why they have all these pretty shrunk sports bikes like the CBR400RR (Baby Blade) and before that th 350 and 400 Fours.
Apart from that: What else do you want on a weak bike, but really good suspension and huge brakes? I've seen good riders on a 125 taking out Mr. Fancypants Superbike all day long on the race track!
Brake later, and corner hard! That works with a ninble 400 better than with anything else.

Oh, and Ito:
LOVE the bike!!!

Not at all scoffing the model.  Love the 350F.  still regret selling mine.  Definitely would own another.  i'm just partial to a stocker 350F and how nothing on it makes the engine look small. 
This bike on the other hand, has a few.... while the go-fast parts are all bling, cool, and highly functional, it looks disproportional.  as a whole, to me, its not aesthetically pleasing.
..thats all

I think the bike looks great but have to agree with Flybox on the proportions.

It looks like a 750 with a smaller motor.

Is that a 750 tank on there ?  My 750 has a 350 tank on it. makes it look more motor

Sam.

[333]

The proportions that look goofy are sitting my fat a$$ on mine!

The other thing to consider over in Japan is the tiered licensing system.  It can take years to obtain a 750 license.

[faux fiddy]

Definitely not a stock 350 tank, shape, size, color or decal.  But you know that.

The swingarm looks cool, and I always heard pipes are best aimed at the face of the rider behind you.

[RustyStuff]

I'd ride it.

Bet it would be fast enough to scare me.
