    WTB: 72 cb350 twin airbox, points cover, throttle/switch assembly, carbs

    Just realized the air filter setup on a cb350 is not like my cb400 :P So, it looks like I actually need the center battery box and both air filters for the carbs :) not just one "air box" like my 400 has ??? ??? ??? Devon 8)

    WTB: 72 cb350 twin airbox, points cover, throttle/switch assembly, carbs

    Hey guys, just picked up a '72 (twin) cb350 and she's missing a few things. I figure the air box should be pretty easy to come by with everyone throwing pods on theirs. I'm up in Canada (Edmonton) - would prefer within Canada due to shipping but don't really care.. Let me know what you've got//...

    So you bought a CM400 / CB400T, now what...(50+ Build Links!)

    Did someone figure out how to run pods on these things? I've been away for a while - this was a major issue when I was building mine, I had a hell of a time tuning the carbs from 0 all the way up to half throttle. My 400t's just been sitting for about a year now, I had intended to re-install...

    Cb400t carb issues which jet is the main?

    You're right, I'm gettin absolutely nothin from 1/4-3/4 throttle. I'm ready to do a carb swap but have no idea where to start. I'm thinking about ordering some vm30s from Dime city. The only barrier for me right now is jetting. the few hundred I'll spend on the carbs is in my budget but i...

    I found some 5mm brass tube locally but the wall thickness is .45mm so once I got my die on it the tube basically disappeared :( I also tried drilling some brass round stock I had but it just kept eating my drill bits lol no matter how much cutting oil I put on there I've ordered some now only...

    , has anyone been able to run these bikes with stock carbs and no airbox? If you have, I'm very curious to know your setup? Ie. which filters, jets, restriction, needle shimming, etc. I'm using the UNI pod filters and they are just not workin for me. Letting in wayyyy too much air. I've Been...

    Carb sync adapters

    Hey guys, I've got a 78 cb400t. Looking to do a carb sync using a homemade manometer, I've seen guys drill a hole in an m5 allen bolt or use a main jet, if it's the right thread pattern. What do you guys suggest? (My bike already has a spot for the adapters in the cylinder head, tapped M5)...

    Cb400t carb issues which jet is the main?

    Alright, swapped the 78 and 105 jets, set the idle screw 1.5 turns out and reinstalled the carbs. The bike does start now - but it doesn't run well. Today I set the valve clearances, they were slightly off (too tight on one intake and too tight on one exhaust) The next step I believe is a carb...

    Cb400t carb issues which jet is the main?

    Yes sir, I double checked those plugs were there. Any suggestions on where to start to diagnose this starting/idling problem? I can't remember where the idle screw is right now so I'm gonna reset that to 1.5 turns, but that's the only idea I've got unless the carbs werent seated properly...

    Cb400t carb issues which jet is the main?

    I've got a couple things acting funky with my 78 cb400t. I've removed the airbox, replaced with UNI pods. Removed the factory installed exhaust crossover and attached two slip on mufflers. When I rebuilt the carbs I mixed up the main and secondary jets. They are literally IDENTICAL in size so...

    Looks great LC!! These frames really do bobber quite well. Hey guys, been working on my carbs and got my jets mixed up. Is the main the larger one (stock 105) or the secondary the larger one??? I've removed the exhaust crossover (still running mufflers behind the headers) and installed pods...

    Quick question

    When you turn your ignition switch to on does your headlight come on as well as all four of your flashers? (not blinking.. Just on) I'm thinking they did and then they went off when I started the bike. Is this correct? Ive got a 78 cb400t1 and im just finishing up the wiring. It's been so...

    Some 3 prongs need to tie into the power wire, after the battery.. There's too many styles to generalize :)

    Fork seals on a CB

    They are a mega PITA to get outta there. Best thing todo is take the fork lower and put it in a pot of boiling water upside down. Two minutes should do it then pry em out with the backend of a hammer. Would be a good idea to put a rag in between your hammer and fork ;) Whenever I do it this...

    CB550 F wiring issues

    ok, cool. I hooked it up today but have not tested it. I believe both my original and the new one had letters labeling the prongs (B and L?) So I just matched those up. I assume the third (empty) prong would be the ground then? Thanks again, Devon 8)

    CB550 F wiring issues

    How did you wire that new one in? I've got the same one - it's got three prongs whereas my factory flasher only has two prongs :-\
