Just for an added data point I've been using the pamco setup http://www.cb450ignition.com/Index350.htm No problems to report

I'm sorry but chopping a critical part of the cable like this doesn't really fall into the category of "barely used". the VM30s (28s and 32s, also) will use throttle nipple fittings, not the ball, or the OEM style barrel fittings to attach the carbs. so those are the right ones in your link...

I'm curious if this is going to work. I installed the same kit on mine, but i rebuilt my harness from scratch. (it sounded like fun at the time) all of my components are grounded on one end and the switch is placed before the device in the circuit (i.e. Hot -> handlebar switches -> device...

If you already have replacements and don't mind throwing that one out, what about hitting it with an air chisel?

it doesn't change brightness when i rev the engine. I've got Ricks high output charging kit on there so that should help a bit. I'll look into swapping out the bulb. with my luck though, it's sealed and i'll just have to buy another. The weird part is the Hi-beam is really bright, like it...

Recently bought the 7" 55w headlight from DCC. and after installing it on my '70 CB350, the light is very dim. I saw another thread around here talking about how the vintage hondas may have trouble with these bulbs. Can anyone confirm this? How do i get a bit more brightness out of this bulb? Do...

Take a look at : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Motocross-Flat-Track-FORK-BRACE-universal-aluminum-blank-AHRMA-trials-/160883245098?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item257563802a I've been chatting back and forth with the store owner that sells this. Turns out i've been wrong all...

So far i'm pretty happy with my tiny battery. Been running it for about 3 weeks now. We'll see how well it works out in 6 months, but as it stands, i don't have any problems starting in the morning, nor running the headlights in the evening. I'm also running kick-start only, so there's that. No...

Sorry, I missed your previous message about the stock brace. I've been digging around the internets as i also need something for this. something that would fit the 350 seems pretty scarce. I don't have the large front tire though. I hate to suggest that maybe your front tire is too big. I...

Little hard to tell with the lighting, looks to me like it's pretty close. maybe a bit lean, but probably not rich. I was expecting to see a bit more color on the ceramic though.

I use the same steps HerrDeacon indicated. It may help to visualize what's happening in the coils. You may already know this, but if you don't, and for anyone else that may benefit from it, here goes: Consider your left point breaker. When the breaker is closed there is a path from the...

good source for connectors http://www.vintageconnections.com/ you SHOULD buy one of those crimpers to make best use of the bullet connectors if you have to put a new one on, although it's easy enough to do one or 2 of these things with a pair of pliers. not the cheapest solution, with...

have you traced the wire from the battery to the starter? how about to the starter switch? maybe you've got a loose connection? Sounds to me like the first step would be to find out which circuit is not getting power. Start with the battery and a good wiring diagram, and test the path to the...

so y'all have it, you can find this part over at Lowbrow Customs http://www.lowbrowcustoms.com/index.php?l=product_detail&p=337

I've been playing around with mine and although it looks pretty tight with everything in place, i can't seem to do anything that would suggest that it would contact. I've got about 1/2 inch of clearance all around in the tightest condition (brake depressed and as much compression on the spring...

Well, i'm not quite at a point where i can give a conclusive answer. I decided that the best way to repair my old rotten wiring harness was to build a new one from scratch. That coupled with vacationing, my g/f moving in with me and only being able to work on the bike for a few hours a night...

Recently purchased and installed the MotoBits rearsets for my '70 CB350. http://www.motobits.com/CB350.pdf They're highly adjustable, have an integrated adjustable brake stop and all aluminum and look pretty damn nice. Non-folding, but i don't think i need that feature that some others have...

I think the '70 CL bikes are all 2 cylinder http://oldmanhonda.com/MC/wiring350K4.html IIRC, the 1970 CB and CL 350s share the same wiring. There's a few differences between the two (exhaust, tank/seat, tires, etc) but the wiring was the same. Which ever way you go, it sounds like it'll be...

80-100 sounds about right to me too. I just pulled mine the other day for cleaning/rebuild. I'd say more on the high end of that range, but that may just be me being a couch-potato. :-[

Looks to me like a mikuni VM round-slide series. VM32 perhaps..
