    some like it hot

    Hey! Great looking CB. I had the same issue as you and was thinking carb or electrical. Eventually I checked the valves which were beyond tight (measured when cold) and readjusted to spec. Now the bike doesn't die when idling (when completely warmed up/hot). Hopefully this helps!

    Universal - Adjustable Rearset - more pictures and discount option

    Hey Viet I was wondering what size of screw would fit in the toe peg hole? It seems to be a very fine thread but I couldn't match it to any of the bolts at the hardware store. I'm going to modify the brake arm so I can flip the arm upwards and see if there is any difference.

    Pjkf: Two-Up CL350 Cafe "Variant" (Completed Photos)

    Re: Pjkf: Two-Up CL350 Cafe "Variant" Love the seat design! The colour scheme fits the bike as well. Are you planning on mounting the passenger pegs to the swing-arm? I used the passenger peg mounts to mount my rear-sets as well so looking for another location/method for the passenger pegs.

    To be honest I have no idea! Haha! I think it's just a matter of adjusting till it all works out. Part of my problem is that this was my first time installing rearsets so it took longer than expected. Also, I didn't realize that both ends of the rod were threaded, so once I realized that both...

    Got the bike to shift up and down smoothly. It still takes some effort but I think that's the nature of the beast here. It's a lot easier when the bike is warmed up and in motion. The rearsets are easy to install but I found them difficult to adjust because of my novice abilities. I'm going to...

    Made some progress today. I can get it to shift up and down, but the bike has to be rolling forward (or backwards) for this to happen. It also takes a lot of force to change gears. When I attempted to take it around the block I managed to get it into first but couldn't upshift to find neutral or...

    Hey. Tried different combinations of the shift linkage tooth. Right now I can get it to shift down in most of the configurations but the upshifting continues to be a problem. I just can't seem to find the sweet spot where the upshift and downshift meet. Right now I can't even get it to upshift...

    Rearsets arrived in the mail today (16 days, which is what I was expecting). I manged to get the brake set up well but I'm having trouble adjusting the shifter. The shifting with stock linkage was "temperamental" so this could be a little tricky . I manged to get the shifter to shift down or up...

    Just ordered a set of these off of ebay. I'll let everybody know how long it takes to ship to Canada and how well they work on a CB350. I didn't bother with the discount for members, so not sure how that works. Either way, at 115 bucks (including shipping) they seem like a good deal and should...

    Clip on handlebar length

    Thanks for the replies guys. Currently mine are 25'' tip to tip. I fitted the controls and everything feels good. I have to wait for spring before taking it out for a ride and then I'll know for sure. Thanks again!

    Clip on handlebar length

    Hey everybody! Was just wondering what some of you guys were running for handlebar lengths for clip ons. There are a lot of topics about running cables, diameters, etc, but not a lot of discussion on what an appropriate length might be. I'm looking to achieve a balance between comfort and...
