Local pickup only 10 minutes south of Cleveland. Bike is mostly complete minus headlight, gauges and side covers. Tank is in great shape inside and out. Has some sort of aftermarket seat. I have no clue where it's from. Motor has good compression. No title, though you could easily get it...

So I was riding my CB350 yesterday and somewhere along the way the bolt in my rearsets fell out. It's the bolt that holds the linkage to the foot lever. It was just a simple bolt with a flange on one end that passed through the lever and clevis form the linkage. It was held on by a circlip...

I changed the tires on my '72 CB350. Everything seems fine except the rear brake isn't nearly as responsive as it once was. It feels really loose. I did have to move the wheel back a bit to get the chain to the correct tension (it was a bit loose before the change)/ Is there a way to tighen...

I've noticed that on my '72 CB350 that when I hit about 5000 RPM in any gear that the bike starts to sputter and just won't go. It's especially noticeable if I accelerate quickly. If I slowly accelerate it seems that it isn't as bad. I read that one thing to try is when it's sputtering to put...

Someone gave me a CB175 for free. It hasn't ran in a number of years and is like to use the motor for a CL175 cafe build I have going. The bike is totally complete but I don't have the keys. How would I go about bypassing the ignition to hot wire it?

I bought some rearsets from J-Rod10 a while back and finally installed them. Everything works fine except the shifting side sticks. On the brake side if I don't have the linkage hooked up the rearset will swivel downward due to gravity. They are bolted down tight and they move smoothly. On the...

I'm having clearance issues with the kickstand and my rearsets. Using the center stand isn't an option due to my 2-1 exhaust. Right now I don't really want to relocate the kickstand, though I probably will this winter when I tear the bike down. In the meantime, could I weld a small bolt on...

Which is the proper way to install the exhaust collars on a CB350? My buddy took my exhaust off but didn't not the way the collars came out. I think it's the top way but I'm not 100% sure on it. Also, I picked up an exhaust for the 350 that was supposed to fit but I noticed that the pipes...

I acquired this bike the other day and don't plan on doing anything with it. 1978 (I think) CB400A. I would basically consider it a parts bike, though getting a title isn't that hard. It has compression. There's surface rust but nothing serious. The front brake is locked up on it. What...

I'm putting some rearsets on my Cb350. I realize that the kickstand is part of the stock footpegs. Right now I don't want to weld a mount and relocate it. In the interim can I just lop off the footpegs and keep the mount or once I cut the pegs off will I run into some other issue? This will...

Does anyone know if a '68 CB350 exhaust is a direct fit on a '72? Thanks.

Does anyone know how to remove this piece from a CB350? It doesn't seem to be bolted on there but they are on there tight. Want to find out exactly how to proceed. Thanks.

So I have a '72 CB350. I've currently got Emgo Shorty mufflers on them. I like the look of short mufflers but they are so wide that running rearsets on the passenger peg mounts isn't possible. There's just no room for my feet unless I have them almost parallel to the ground, which would make...

Lately I've noticed that my clutch is kinda clanky sounding, for lack of a better description, mostly when downshifting. So for example if I go from 3rd to 2nd it feels like it's almost slamming into gear or something with a loud clank. Then today when I downshifted from 2nd to 1st initially...

Can anyone recommend some good paint to paint my motor? The Por15 stuff sounds interesting, as does the Duplicolor. Does anyone have any experience with either one or a better one?

I'm interested in learning how to build my own exhausts. Would something like this suffice for bending exhaust pipes or do I need something else? I'm assuming with this type of bender I'd need to pack it tight with sand and weld caps on both ends...

So I picked up these rear sets http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=51161.0 They're direct bolt ons, which is why I bought them. For my CB350 I just like to keep it able to be ridden at all times and I didn't want to deal with welding or any fabrication for that matter. I'm running...

Does anyone know if piston rings for a '69 CB/CL175 are the same size as ones from a 1971 CL175? Having trouble locating a pair on eBay but I see a lot for '68 and wanted to know if maybe they're all the same size, which would make sense to me given the CCs are the same.

I ordered some custom spokes from Buchanan's for my '71 CL175. The spokes they sent me are 6 1/8 for front and 6 5/16 for the back. I just saw a thread on DTT that said the spokes are different lengths for the inside and outside spokes. It also has the lengths at 150mm, 157.5mm for the front...

Does anyone know where I can get new floats for my '72 CB350 for a good price? Looking for someplace other than eBay. Thanks.
