    1980 CB650 Project

    new gasket set, painted engine, cut the rear, etc. What does everyone think of the drag style straight handelbar? Is it fine? I'd like clip-ons but they're over budget for my bike. Any idea for homemade?

    1980 CB650 Project

    I recently bought a basket case CB650. Purchased it all in pieces and managed to transport it all in a 4 door bmw 3-series. Everything was nicely organized in individually identified bags. Started with the frame and wheels, and will be doing the engine rebuild next. Not sure which way I'm...

    CB650 quick purchase advice

    I am going to pick up a 1980 CB650 tomorrow. The bike is in parts in boxes, but according to the seller, it is 100% complete, he put it apart himself to rebuild it but moved since and has no garage to work on it. He is asking $150. Is it a good purchase? It would be my first cafe build. I...

    Transporting a Motorcycle

    I think I might've found a CB400T I'd want to get. Problem is, the bike is 300km away, and I can't get my hands on a minivan or pickup. A U-haul trailer costs 15$ for 6 hours. One way trailer would be over 60$ Is it feasible to fit a bike in the backseats of a sedan, after removing the front...

    to buy or not to buy -- CB360

    So I'll try to get it. It's tough doing a long distance deal though as I'm presently in europe. Hopefully it'll be mine... I already read 53 pages of 50$ mods and many build threads, time for my own. I can imagine I'll be doing a lot more hating at the beginning.

    cool thanks a lot... Hey maybe you know, why do ppl say a cb750 project requires a much bigger budget? From what I see, the bikes are more available. CB350/360 are hard to find around here, unless I'm not looking in the right places, any tips?

    to buy or not to buy -- CB360

    Thanks a lot for the advice. As a matter of fact, I'm in europe now and was going to leave a deposit on it just based on pictures and what the seller said. I think I'll have to pass then. Great forum here, I'll probably find something soon enough to join in. QC inspection involves a...

    to buy or not to buy -- CB360

    I found a cb360 for sale. It has been sitting outside for two years. Sometimes it runs on one cylinder only. According the the seller, he suspects electrical work or carburator. It was advertised as a cb350, but then I looked up google images of both bikes and its a cb360 instead. Bike needs...
