    Name that sound

    Sounds to me like it does when I leave my foot on the Kickstarter after it kicks over. And ideas of where to start looking before I just go figure it out on my own? I’ve got the Honda service manual. Just to help anyone who might want to know where I am with this machine. Reading the...

    Left side won't run past idle. Order of operations? CB360

    Okay, so I've been struggling to get this bike over the hump for a long time. I think I'm just to close to it to see clearly. I could really go for a local wrench to bounce things off of, but all my friends are mystified by any mechanical system. Idles fine. Timing is spot on. (electronic...

    Dumb question of the day; when to reuse a gasket?

    Never? I just pulled the clutch side crank case on my CB360 and the gasket all stayed with the cover and looks to have been recently replaced. (P.O. was a honda tech. Recently probably means 2010, which was unfortunately only a few hundred miles ago) The oil centrefuge was also very clean...

    Kehin Carburetor Synching

    Hey, I've got the 2 carburetor synch kit and the factory carbs on my CB360. I've been working through a mess of issues and finally got it running again with factory points. I was trying to dial everything in this evening and I had an interesting thing happen. The right cylinder/pipe was getting...

    So lost...CB360

    Pardon my posting this before I have enough information. I'm partially posting it because I'm wrenching in a vacuum and need a sanity check. I'm also posting this because the progress I'm seeing on this (ancient frustrating decade-long) build is measurable, but the failure point seems to be...

    VT500 Ascot. Desert Tracker

    Hey, Folks. My neighbor's been riding this bike for the past year and tried to sell it once she got a car. I always liked the look of it and knew it ran better than my CB360 (which doesn't/hasn't in a long time) so when it hit an asking price of $750 I swooped in and grabbed it. Looking these...

    Fork Rebuild: CB 360

    so I put the left and right forks together differently and I'm not sure which one I did correctly: Everything I search comes up a different model number and the internals look totally different... First fork: Got the fork body. In that is a tapered cone thing, on top of that is the fork...

    How to raise a CB360 fork (or lengthen it)

    I'm working on a CB360 and trying to tracker-ify it a bit. I've done a lot of work with OEM parts (CL front fender, CL360 pipes and CB450 tank) and am trying to lengthen the fork 1-2 inches. I have the adjustability in the rear shocks to raise to match. Is there anywhere in here I can put a...

    Anyone lift their CB360 two inches? Is this asking for trouble?

    I'm guessing that the rear swing arm could be a problem, and you'd obviously need longer shocks/ forks . . . thoughts? (because i don't know enough to know that this is a terrible idea) The goal is better off road riding (with a dirt tracker type use) and to not fux with factory handling in...

    Tempe any crew out here?

    We get to be on our bikes the other 9 months of the year... Anyone hang out? I just moved here from PGH (Pittsburgh) garage 57 had a great crew, but school took to much time away from hanging with new people. Haven't even pulled my 360 out of the box trailer yet. Trying to get some cash flows...

    CB360 - OEM+ lets see what happens here.

    I've been viewing this site for a few years, but didn't have an account until recently. This is my first bike, and i've learned a lot about tracing down problems. SpeedFreak inspired me to put all my progress here into a build thread (don't know the guy, never talked to me, but I respect a...

    CB360 forks - looking to make them 1" longer - what are my options?

    So . . . I got clip ons and was worried about installing them below the upper fork trees because . . . that feels really low, and I'm not really that bad ass (Like, I like my riding position) so I lowered the front end enough to clamp the clip ons above the fork trees. I dropped the back as far...

    CB 360 T ignition issues: Left Point grounded when open or closed.

    So my bike has been running rough for a while and I've been trouble shooting (for a while it was strong up to 5-6 grand and then fell on its face. - after that I had a spark plug eject itself - put in a sav-a-thread and reassembled today. set the timing by sight (watched for the points to open)...

    CB to CL360. \ tearing into her a bit to day with some suspension/ carb Q's

    Hey guys - I've been trolling for a few years and only posted once or twice recently. I bought this CB360 mostly stock from an old honda tech who had her running (but not charging.) and after a year of young dumb bullshit (mostly not taking care of the few things that needed attention) I parked...

    Stock CB360 seat with Repro cover 10/10 trade for 360 pan with foam

    I want to cut something up . . . this is nice. I don't have space to hoard all of my stock bits (and i'm chopping the frame anyway, so I doubt the seat will ever be useful to me again) You pay shipping both ways. :-*

    Introduction: Hi: i live in Pittsburgh now . . . I have a good seat

    and I want to mess with everything this winter . . . The game plan is to pull a short chop this winter and delete all of the frame behind the rear struts. I dig my fenders and stock airboxes. The rear fender will just be pulled in to terminate 3-6" past the relocated round bar bit. At the...
