    1973 Cb350G Right Hand Controls Wiring

    I picked up a 73 350G last year. The previous owner had something go bad with the starter switch, and they remedied it with a trip to the local RadioShack. I picked up a used set of controls from ebay, but they appear to be a couple of wires short. Coming out of the bucket I have a couple of...

    Clear Coat Bubbling

    Will POR-15 fill pinholes, or is Red-Kote a better option?

    Clear Coat Bubbling

    This didn't happen until I applied the new paint and clear coat. I had previously used lacquer, and that was unaffected. This is on the top of the tank, and the color doesn't seem to be affected, only the clear.

    Clear Coat Bubbling

    I recently re-painted my tank using spray bombs mixed at Napa, and I finished with Spray Max 2k clear coat. It looked fine for about a week, but then a couple of bubble spots appeared. One is near the front weld points of the tank, so it isn't very noticeable, and I don't care. The other is of...

    1973 CB 350 Points Cover & Float Bowl

    I'm looking for a points cover with screws, and a float bowl for a 73 CB 350. I believe the points cover is the same for the all years of the CB350 and covers for the CL350, SL350, and the CB250 will also fit...

    Hole in Float Bowl

    Wow. Thanks. I believe it's a second generation. The older carbs I have are more square.

    Hole in Float Bowl

    That's what I was thinking. Just wasn't sure if it would hold up to the fuel, and heat. Thanks!

    Hole in Float Bowl

    The hole is actually in the bowl, not the float.

    Hole in Float Bowl

    I recently picked up a 1973 Honda CB350G. I've pulled the carbs, and after cleaning them, I've discovered a few small holes in one of the float bowls. Can this be fixed? If it can be, what is the best method? Solder, JB Weld, or just purchase a new one? I of course have four CB350 carbs sitting...

    Please do. Thanks!

    Getting started

    Looking good. What type of levers are those? Stupid question, but does the geometry make them any easier to pull? I dislocated my thumb a number of years ago, and clutching for an hour or two causes pain to the point when I can barely pull the lever. Getting old has its drawbacks.

    What's a good site for the XR200,XL185 & CB125S bikes? Performance

    Not a lot of modding here, but if you ever get stuck, there is a wealth of information at http://www.vjmog.com/

    oh shit pin hole leaks - jb weld/phosphoric acid?

    That stinks, but the price for the other is still a steal for NOS. I can't touch anything for my 68 350 in that condition for less than 700+ bucks.

    oh shit pin hole leaks - jb weld/phosphoric acid?

    Haha. Nice! Too funny. I was going to post a link to that exact tank, but I didn't think it matched the tank in the picture. In the long run it is your best bet. You'll probably end up saving money, and you won't have to replace it in your lifetime.

    oh shit pin hole leaks - jb weld/phosphoric acid?

    What model is this tank? With the amount of time and money spent trying to plug and patch who knows how many holes, you may be better off just snagging a solid one off of ebay. In my experience where you find one pin hole, there are 10 more ready to appear. A leaky fuel tank between your legs is...

    Full face or open face?

    I reserve open face for meatloaf, and turkey sandwiches only.
