cb 350 catastrophic failure for sale
« on: March 29, 2010, 01:18:09 PM »
I never seen one blowed up this good.

$600 might have been an ok price before the case was destroyed. Wonder what caused it?

Not mine, but I would take parts if it was a $50 bike. Someone could have got hurt it looks like.

It must have been making  some noise for a period of time before the big bang.

My guess is incorrectly torqued rod bolts

titled frame and extras - assuming the engine is toast?  Maybe 250.  You could probably sell the rest of the parts and make back the cost of the bike and swap a 400 in there for some real fun.
