Hey guys, here's my bike. 1975 CL360 all original.

And Here's my inspiration. Not sure who's bike this is but I really like the way it was done and I'm hoping some of the guys on the forum can help me figure out where to get some of the parts used on this bike starting with the seat and tank. Also if anyone knows of a build thread for this bike please post a link. Thanks!

Looks like you've got a good starting point. Your 360 looks to be in pretty good shape.

The other bike is a 350, but I don't remember seeing it on here before... that doesn't mean it's not here, I just haven't come across it before. I'm figuring that my 360 will come out slightly similar though. You've got good taste! ;D
 
Thanks :)
I know the 350's a little different then mine but this one is just sooooo sweet. Do you know what tank that is on there?

Here's the seat I like for mine, similar but not exactly the same as the inspiration bike.

Its one of the ebay Vietnam made seats that fits the stock seat pan. What do you guys think?
 
I like that seat, very nice.

I'm not sure what that tank is, but I'd suspect that it's the stock one. I'm not that up on my 350s but w/ a flip lid like that it would be a later 350; a '72 or '73. (?) If you are looking for a nice tank check out the '68 350. It's a bit more square than that one and has the vintage-looking rubber knee pads. I'm putting the tank from a '77 CB400F on my 360, at least I won't have to get gas every 100 miles and it's a great looking tank.
 
Is there a way to "view all subscribed threads" so I can easily go back to threads I've liked without searching all over the board?

The only way I know of is to make a post to the thread... then it comes up in the "Show new replies to your posts" list and you can also go to your profile and get to the list of posts you've made. If somebody else out there knows another way to mark or highlight your fav threads let us know.
 
whare did you find the pic maybe it can be backtracked ?


I think I've seen this bike before I remember the white frame ..

http://www.bikeexif.com/honda-cl350-cafe-racer-2 I emailed this guy a few days ago with no reply.

http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=574482 Haven't tried this guy but I see he's only got this one post plus he's ignored other members on ADV rider already. I'm kinda wondering if it's really his bike even?

Here's a different pic but the bike now has a few subtle differances that I noticed (older pic maybe?). Seems as though nobody can find the builder including the current owner (Joshua Hoffman) who doesn't seem to know alot about it and won't reply to my emails.

Anyone seen this one or know what seat this is?
 
I now know whare I've seen it now.. a frend sent me a photo of the Ossa next to it and it was in one of the pic's


I like that white powder coat frame I might have to try that with the cb550

"seat cover built on the stock pan" makes me think he took it to upholster and had it made ..
 
It's not exact but it's close to the seat your looking for maybe they make it ??
