    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

  • In order to help others find info on a particular bike, be sure to put the year, make or model of bike that you are asking a question about, in the Topic Title. This will allow people to pass by posts they have no interest in.

Just got off the phone with the guy with the CB350. Says he has the clear title and keys. Wanted 400.00 so I will be trailering it home tomorrow after work. I cant got wrong at 400 bones!!! See the thread asking for opinions for the previous comments about it. Heres the bike as it sets now.

Great score Chuck ! Judging by the seat and the lack of rust that things spent most of the time out of the elements. You going to do a restore ?
 
Havent seen it yet Garth. Told him that for 400 I would take it sight unseen and am going to get it tomorrow night. But by the pics I would say a few hrs with some hot soapy water and the power washer its gonna look a lot better right off the jump.
 
I think you'll have $400 worth of fun with this no matter what, and anything above that is just bonus. Cool little bike.
 
Time i got thru it and find the list of little things that will inevitably need replaced the figure will be well more than 400. But who cares..if it make ya happy and doesnt mean the bills dont get paid or I cant eat its all good far as I am concerned. Gives me something to putter with this summer I guess.

If its any good you want it??? Its coming off and will be a tomato vine stake otherwise...LOL
 
Nice bike, congrats! Am I correct in thinking the 350 twin was only produced for a couple years?

Is this going to be a flip?
 
The 350s were made quite a while, then they made it a 360 and made them a while longer. 350s were better, can't remember why. Several friends had them, I rode them a lot. My dad bought a 360, rode it quite a bit too.

Fun bikes, had a coolness factor unlike most Hondas.

Congrats, Chuck!

Oh no, biggest selling bike they made. 1968 thru 1973. 250,000 sold, 67,180 in 1972. Replaced by the 360 but only two years. 360 was a flop.

Do you remember why? I can't remember what they changed, they went the same as far as power and acceleration, looked about the same, somehow it just wasn't as fun to ride but I can't remember the details. My dad's 360 was exactly as fast as my friend's 350 but not as fun.
 
Ya know Tom, it's been a while but if memory serves me correctly it was motor issues. Had a few recalls too. Everything else was basically a 350. The transmission was a six speed.

The 360 had top end lubrication issues. Chewed up the cams, rockers and bearing surfaces if you thrashed it for too long.

I remember cam chain tensioner issues as well.
They also went to a 6 speed and cut back on the power slightly, i believe in the aid of better gas mileage. Unfortunately that was a concern at the time.
