does anyone know if a cb360 and cb350 coils are interchangeable? maybe a cb450 and cb350 are as well? need some help on the ignition system.

450 and 350 coils are identical and interchangeable. The 360 coils have the plug wire running out of the same side and won't fit on 450 and 350 brackets but if you use the 360 brackets, they will fit on 450 and 350 frames.
 
rainy sunday. :(

Nice! She's looking really good. Ever thought about painting the spokes and hubs black? I think that would go nicely with the black engine cases as well as set off the nic chrome rims. Just my two cents. Sweet looking bike. Good work.
 
finally got my NOS Jardine 2-1 in the mail today, which was a nice surprise as it didnt show up when it was sopposed to, but today on my birthday! ;D took a few photos, which are horrible but you get the idea.

after fitting it, i fired her up only to be disappointed by the "tingy" wimpy sound. i went for a short ride to make sure all was tight and sealed and everything is fine except for the sound. easy fix. drill a few holes in the overkill baffle.

pretty happy with the exhaust. ive wanted a nice chrome 2-1 for a while and im glad its finally on the bike. better photos to come.
 
funny I was just thinking of doing the same thing on my 2 into 1 for my cl350. Did it help much ?

yeah i think it did. im still having mid throttle issues as i did before this new exhaust, (carb sync issues i imagine) but wide open seemed to help some. it definitely sounds better.

Looking Really Good!! Nice exhaust and Happy Birthday. Love the white grips, where did you get them?
thank you for the bday wishes. the white grips are NOS Granturismo grips that i got off ebay.
 
finally decided to address the crusty hubs on this ol gal. sanded em' down and gave them a bit of class with a good clean up, slight polish and some holiness.
rear hub cleaned up and drilled.

gave the sprocket a good cleaning and a coat of epoxy.

moved onto the front wheel. sanded the corrosion off and drilled some big holes. after the wholes were drilled and sanded, i had to go to the inside of the hub and grind away a 1/4" or so of material off the casting lines in each "cubby" so that the mesh would lay flat once epoxied into the hub.
