Vintage Honda gurus, is this an xl350 centerport?? I know it's a terrible photo, but wasn't able to get a closer picture. I've been looking into building a bike for flat track racing and I know these are a great platform. Thanks!

Gotcha, thanks! Without having done my research, is there a big difference between the two? Still a good option for a race bike?
 
Wasn't a good option for a race bike when new but may be OK if there are no two strokes allowed in class (even a 125 two stroke will beat it up then steal it's lunch money)
I would get it if cheap enough though, always liked the styling of the early XL (just don't take it off road)
 
Well I might look into it if it's cheap enough. I've never raced before, so I won't be winning anything but I planned to run in the 250cc+open class and the vintage class, and just want it to be somewhat competitive when my skill catches up.
