This weekend I completely stripped my CB350. My intentions started innocently enough, I needed to pull the engine so it could undergo some internal work but once the engine was out I used the most dangerous words in motorcycle mechanics:
ad my fate was sealed...
Now pulling the motor is...
OK now I'm a complete newbie so maybe am just looking in the wrong place, but I just got the head off my CB350 today and there was no guide roller AT ALL. Zip, nada...
Unfortunately the CB350 manual for the twin keeps failing when I try to download it. I have the tank off and all the bolts are undone from the head, but it won't clear all the studs at once, it keeps bumping the top of the frame. I'm considering cutting a tiny notch so it will clear...
Hi all,
The engines are different of course, but are CB350 parts generally the same across both the twins and the fours? Specifically I'm wondering about seats, but I'm curious about the rest.

Ontario plates are almost exactly 12", so yeah this one's likely 4' wide.
Incidentally, I was flipping through Bike and Boat Trader and new 5' x 8' landscape trailers tend to sell in the $1,500 range, so the TSC trailer seems like a bargain even at full price.
Cyclewerx did a leakdown test on my right cylinder that had no compression. They`re reasonably confident it needs new piston rings. It`s high season so they don`t have time to pull the engine and heads but they`ll do the valves once the engine is out. I planto do the rings on both sides while...
It's already behind my van with my bike on it so it's too late for me. That said the kijiji trailer looks too narrow for the bike with an attached sidecar:
How wide is an Ontario plate? My five foot wide trailer was just barely wide enough...

Hi all,
I'll post more details soon, but I just bought a 5' x 7.5' landscape trailer from TSC (Tractor Supply Company) to tow my bike and sidecar behind my 1986 VW Vanagon Westfalia Syncro Camper. The trailers are $100 off until the June 19th. Here is the ad from the back cover of the current...
Hi All,
I'm looking to buy a Honda CB450K1 gas tank, preferably black but I'll take ANY colour. Condition does matter but it doesn't have to be mint, ideally with attached hardware, MUST have chrome inserts.
Thanks,
Christopher
There's another Velorex on eBay right now, exactly the same as mine except it's ten years newer and has additional rear lighting:

The value for customs "ide Car NES 8714.99.99.10" was $600 x 0.9883 exchange = $592.98
Then I paid 5% GST & 8% PST on the $592.98 or $29.65 + $47.44
Grand total customs charges was $77.09, of course I already paid the vendor $1000 US for the sidecar

Given what you've said maybe I'll live with it a bit before taking the plunge. On another note I can't believe shipping is $17.50 US for a seemingly light $5 part.
I'm adding a photo of the "Cycle Experts" part for the benifit of the archives after the eBay auction expires:

OK this might be heresy but having to reach under my tank all the time for my ignition switch is a real hassle. Why'd they do this in the first place? Are there kits available to do this? Has anyone done a really cool job of it?
Namasté
