Oh yeah I always bench sync but the 360 is so finicky with the carb sync, the vac test is a must. Fixed my high rpm that didn't want to drop for 4-5 seconds issue!

Thought I'd share this on this forum as well - Thought I’d share some links for my setup to create a carb sync kit. Have had a hard time finding all the pieces - everything I purchased to sync the carbs is below! Carb brass fittings 6mm x .75 (if the link ever expires, search eBay for “6mm x...

Been thinking about getting my rotor resurfaced and holes drilled for years now. Finally decided to pull the trigger. What an incredible experience! You simply pack it up, ship it over and a few days later you get a PayPal invoice and it get's shipped back. You can pick pretty much any hole...

Hey all, thanks so much for the kind words, truly means a lot as this was my first short film!

I’ve been posting here on this forum for quite some time now - I am a Honda CB360 owner/builder and such. Before my last rebuild, I wanted to get my cylinder head machined, bored and cleaned so I took it over to Valley Cycles in Los Angeles, CA. I spoke to the shop owner Kurt and his son Dylan...

And for anyone interested - here is the rebuild! Found a cylinder head for $60 on eBay, had it gone through with new valves and the head bored - went back together perfect, started right up and has been riding amazing for the past few days!

Hey thanks, believe it or not, used a Ryobi tripod work light for most of it haha - had a little portable light for the tight areas, can’t wait to get my head back and get this thing on the road again!

Thought I'd share! Made a cool video time lapse showing the teardown on my Honda CB360 - currently at the machine shop getting .5mm bored, and having the head cleaned/valve job done! Going to do a part 2 when I reassemble all fresh and clean! Hopefully all this takes care of the oil blow by I...

Well, took the cylinder and head to a machine shop - looks like the head needs to be replaced, the journal is pretty bad and the machine guy would rather not work on it and charge me know it’s going to fail eventually, found one on eBay for $100 in good condition, going to pick it up and have...

Hey crazypj! Thanks a ton for the reply and detailed info! This bike was rebuilt by the person I bought it from about 3 years ago - he also gave me a storage bin filled with parts, said he had 3 CB360 engines and rebuilt one solid one with all the parts - after about 6 months of driving a rocker...

Appreciate this, have seen a few post of CJ’s about oil mods! Also think I should replace the valve stem seals and check the valve guides while I’m in here

Okay, tore it all down today! Also filmed the whole thing and am going to upload it to the tube for everyone - here are a few pictures though, whats odd is how much oil reside is on the left piston and that spark plug was the dry one with no issues. This CLEARLY needed to be done! Some pitting...

I sourced rockers and a camshaft on eBay, they were used but in great condition, @Gomezacta took me a bit but they slowly appeared and I was able to find all the parts

Yeah? I mean I already ordered the .5 over (it was the smallest next step) - my cylinder could be in spec for all I know but figured if I am going to tear it down, might as well bore it up 1 size - I can always return them if they aren't enough or too much - thanks for the advice here

I lowered the idle And tried swapping plugs and wires. It’s definitely burning a lot of oil, I topped it off about 50-60 miles ago and it’s back to the “add” mark now. Just ordered a set of .5mm oversized pistons and new gaskets for the entire top end. Going to tear it down, have a machine shop...

Good note here, think I am going to tear it apart for the winter and check everything over, new gaskets and rings - couldn't hurt I suppose - will check all measurements by the book while I'm in there and report back! Thanks

New plug after the 15 minute ride -

Installed new plugs, rode around for about 15 minutes and still smoking. Also smoke coming from the breather tube near the exhaust clamp (which I clearly need to shim and tighten down). Wondering if it’s actually oil and not gas, idk smells like gas for sure.

1974 CB360 - finding gas on the right side spark plug. Left side looks clean. Bike starts first try every time, idles, I can drive, it has power throughout all the gears, no bogging or anything, literally runs perfect. After warming up, I am getting a light amount of white smoke from the...

This is also with the amazon angled clip-ons!
