    Vintage looking rear sets

    Hey everyone, I’m starting a CB/CL350 cafe, and am thinking about getting some rear sets. I’m not yet sure where I want the footpegs, so I don’t know if a bolt on kit will work for me (I am tall and long legged). My problem is I don’t really like the look of most rear sets. The knurled aluminum...

    What are some companies that could make custom exhaust headers?

    I'm in New England. Good idea, looking locally. I will ask the local FB groups if there are any local resources. And yes, I expect it to be expensive, but I am interested in finding out if it is just expensive or crazy pie in the sky expensive. Gasser Customs makes a nice stainless header for...

    What are some companies that could make custom exhaust headers?

    I am beginning to brainstorm and dig into a CB/CL350 project and have always loved the look of twin Scrambler exhausts, the kind with one high pipe on each side. There are a few bikes that came with this kind of setup, like the CB450D (link below) and certain British bikes. If I wanted to...

    cb500? or cb750?

    That's retarded. The only time I've felt the need for more power on my 500 was when I had it loaded down and 2-up crossing the rockies. Other than that it's great. It'll do 70 down the highway all day long. It'll rock through the corners all day long and I imagine mine could spank a 750 in...

    Where can you get good panel mount dash indicators?

    Hi, I am planning to build a custom dash for me 350 project, similar to the ones from Hawk Concepts: For various reasons I'd like to do my own and use indicator lights in a similar size and style. I've seen the little ones available from Radio Shack and I've seen lots of plain plastic ones...

    Hawk Concepts CB360 Dash Installed pics

    Go to the Dime City Cycles site where they're sold and you can find some more pictures. Looks like it bolts to the triple clamp where the original gauge mounting plate would have been. After looking for a second time, I think the top triple clamp is shaped differently from the bigger CBs so...

    Anybody recognize these CB350 mufflers on ebay?

    It's weird, I don't see these mufflers on any of the online stores. It seems to me they must be cheap EMGO reproductions of something, but I can't find them in their catalog. Maybe there's some other cheap aftermarket distributor in Asia, as this store is in Thailand. Being 1 1/2" mufflers...

    Hawk Concepts CB360 Dash Installed pics

    It looks to me like it would, but I guess you'd have to get measurements to know for sure. The gauges on the 350 look like they mount the same way as the early CBfours, and that's where this thing bolts on. I think this is a really nice product, but I was planning to make my own little dash...

    decreased acceleration CB750

    So the air screws on the sides of each carb do need to be equal. It's probably like 1 turn out +or- 1/8 of a turn. Turning the screws out makes it leaner and turning them in makes it richer. Valves should be adjusted first in the tuneup process, with the engine cold. Then do the cam chain...

    opinion on gauges

    I f$%cking love the way those look with the white faces and polished housings! I too would paint only the tips red or the whole needle red, but not two different colors. So those gauge faces eliminate the original holes for instrument lights? I like that idea because I was also thinking...

    Anybody recognize these CB350 mufflers on ebay?

    Thought I'd pose this question here because of the wide variety of bikes that are owned by members. These mufflers are listed as being for the CB350, and I'm sure they'd work on one. Obviously they're not original styled CB350 mufflers, but I like them a lot and may buy a set. So what are...
