Hows everyone doing, my name is Targe. I'm 22 and I grew up with hotrods and muscle cars my whole life, but I fell in love with bikes about a year ago, specifically air cooled vertical twins (and singles). Anyways, i picked up a CB350 and have been cafinating it. so far, my bike has been a hit everywhere it goes, i think its cause its the only thing like it where i live, sure would be nice to find some other racers in the sacramento area...

P.s.- Pics

Man, that is NICE! How about posting some detail shots? I'd really like to see the taillight and rear fender treatment; not really visible in those two photos. The silver tank looks different from the black one; can you provide some details about them? Do you still have the silver one? What have you done with the seat on that thing? No way to tell without some more pictures...

Is someone you know building a hotrod? I see half of a vehicle in the background of the second photo; is it yours? Fill us in on the details when you get a chance...

Glad to see you kept the fork gaitors; so much more authentic that way. Now, we want DETAILS, and MORE PHOTOS! DTT!

Hey Dragger, thanks for the reply. The two cars in the background were my dads, he has since passed away. The 34 pickup has been passed to me. It is an original hotrod from the 50's, 48 merc flathead, and a few other screwball things done to it. The plan was to get it safe (it runs better then any car ive owned but swerves off the road when you hit a bump) and drive it to Bonneville. The Black tank is actually dark metallic blue and is the original 1970 CB350 tank, the silver one is a CX500 tank in bare metal, it doesnt fit at the moment but im working on it. There is no seat right now ether, im planning on building a duckbill style from scratch kinda like the one Carpy makes (the guys a genius), but thats all after i get the tank worked out..
