My 71 CB350 was on its way to Michigan this last weekend when the engine decided it was going to grenade. It basically blew up in the case and left most of its parts on the highway. I wasn't riding the bike at the time and the person who was gave me a 1985 Kawasaki ZX900 that needs some work but should be running by the end of the weekend. I also got a complete parts bike in the deal for $200.
The great big mess is a lot to explain. As it stands the new owner of my CB said his Dad or Uncle has a good engine he can use so it won't cost him a lot to get it going. It should only cost me time to get the Kawi running.
A sad day and death of a nice CB350 didn't turn out good when I got the ZX900 but at least there was one positive outcome.
Once I get the Kawi running I'm going to find a late 70s or early 80s Kawi and cafe the shit out of it. Actually, I will try to find something to cafe. A Yamaha 650 mgiht be nice too. Either way, you guys are still stuck with me since I like the people here. Hopefully, you will accept me with my new fangled 1985 model year bike. Pictures to come as soon as I can get them.
