Been Around the Block
Been a while since I've been on here. With my CL350 on hold for right now, I picked up this gem for the price of the hardbound shop manual that came with it. The rear cylinder suffered from oil starvation and the cam shaft welded itself to the bearing and bent the exhaust valve in the process. Everything else is good mechanically. I will be doing the roller bearing mod to both heads to prevent this from happening again. The first goal is to get it rideable, then go from there. I'm thinking something along the lines like the one from Street Kleaver Customs...
