Re: CB350 Cafe... 6 years in the making!
I just rewired my 69 cb350 and the factory wiring schematic says to use a 15 amp fuse.

mr. umbrella is right, I just checked a diagram I got from here (somewhere) and it's 15 amp. Sorry for the (bad) assumption :-[

totally different fender on the F. If your tail light bracket isn't rusty on the F i'd be interested (it should be chrome)... I had to paint mine black on my 350F. I am eventually planning to restore the four (with the exception of the exhaust that will get a 4 into 4 SS.)

Thanks DrJ. The mufflers are original and are rotten on the inside and one is rust on the back. The frame # also indicates a 70' model. title says 72 but the numbers match. I think the motor is either a 68 or 69 CL motor. starts with "CL350-10#####" Would it be worth swapping it with the extra CB motor I have?

The old Hondas were titled according to first year of registration, not year of manufacture. Your bike is a 70 but sat on the showroom floor for a couple of years. If it was my bike, I'd rather have a CB motor in a CB frame. I believe the CL transmission gear ratios are for lower RPM torque. The CB motor would be better at highway riding.

I just got an email through old bike barn about refurbished cb350 carbs for sale. Didnt check how much they want for them though... may be cheaper to just get some mikunis..
