I finally got my cb350 SS tank! and it fits!!!!!! I like the cb350 tank better, but I might have to relocate the coils. I don't have a problem moving them underneath the seat, but will that create any problems?

Thanks for any input ;D

As long as the coils are properly wired and have some airflow over them, they will be fine under the seat.

That 350 tank looks great btw!
 
This is really funny i own a 360 and i wanted to mock up the old 350 tank due to the knee pads i think it looks cool. 350 tank all the way!
 
I actually have 2 cb350 SS tanks, I will be selling one of them soon :) , along with my cb360 tank.

I was really amazed when everything matched up, the cb350 tank would have slid on perfectly if the dyna coils weren't so fat...

So the cb350 tank it is! How easily do the rubbers come off?
 
Just grip em and rip em! There's little metal lips on the tank holding them on that will need shaved off if you arent gonna use the pads.
 
Moved my coils to an under seat location, I think they should stay cool enough. Now I just have to cut down the pegs that hold the tank rubbers on and the 350 tank should slide right on :)

Ok.... have to use the 360 tank for the time being, the 350 tank is going to have to be modified a bit. After I moved the coils I set it on my bike and now it hits the top of the motor... so I can either move the mounts for the rubber pucks down, or I can dent the tank where it hits. The 350 tank is in really nice shape so I am reluctant to cut it up to make it fit.

I removed most of the paint today, still have to get in the small spaces. I am going to just spray some clear on it and see how long it will last.

Well if it makes you feel any better my wife likes the 360 tank as well. It doesn't look bad, it's just the 350 tank looks better :)
 
I like the front of the 350 tank and how it hugs the neck. But the 360 tank has a better line for that seat to follow (350's hump might drop off too sharp for the flow of the seat). Also, that raised filler cap screams racer!
 
Everything looks great man...

I often ask the opinion of somebody I don't like, just to make sure I'm going in the right direction.
If they hate it.... its perfect!!!!

Louie you're a fackin genius. I need to start doing that.

Sparky, I'm diggin the 350 tank man.
 
I decided to just use the 360 tank, I think I am going to shorten the tail by about 8 inches. I have to wipe the tank down with momar every few days so it won't rust.
 
why don't you just wipe it down with Ospho? That way you only have to do it once. Either that or just wipe it with an oil rag.

Is it clear? I like the bare metal look and don't want to cover it.
