    Lowering a 72 cb350

    Would Rebel shocks work alright for lowering the rear? I've heard some people use them

    Lowering a 72 cb350

    Wanted to get some suggestions on how to lower, without modification, a 72 CB350. The bike is in great condition so I don't want to cut anything but I'm only 5'7'' and I can't sit flat footed at stop lights with both feet. Any suggestions on how to lower it without cutting?

    Awesome. Sounds like it's running pretty much as it should. I just need to find the sweet spot on the idle and crank it down with a wrench

    Bike issue questions

    Took the bike out for 30 minutes yesterday evening. 100 degrees outside. It never stalled but it was still having idle issues. I just get blipping the throttle when it got down lower than 1000 rpm's. It ran great. When I would come to a stop, the rpm's would drop a little. I had to adjust the...

    So I charged the battery back to 100% and resoldered the electric start wire back to its contact point. The bike starts on the first push of the button now so I'm thinking it was a heat issue. I'm hoping it'll be ok now but I have to go ride it and see if it stalls again.

    Bike issue questions

    I put the battery on a deep cycle charge this morning. It's only charging to 75%. It's a couple years old. I actually didn't change the handlebars. I got the switches off, looked at it and decided I couldn't cut or change anything. I did get the bars loose enough that maybe the ground cable fell...

    Bike issue questions

    I ran the bike hot yesterday. I got it to my parents house and it was smoking a little. I checked the oil and it needed a quart. Over heating could very well be the issue I don't think my battery is fully charged. When I bought the bike, the electric start worked fine but after a couple days...

    Bike issue questions

    Re: New handlebar installation question Weird. I knocked the electric start wire loose, taped it up and got everything back together. I started it up, rode it about 10 miles and then it died, I restarted it, rode it another mile and it died again. Then it wouldn't restart at all. Had to truck...

    Bike issue questions

    Re: New handlebar installation question Third question: While I was changing the bars, the electric start wire came loose from the solder. Will the bike run alright without it being attached or is it part of the charging system and need to remain soldered to its contact point? Just humor me here.

    Bike issue questions

    Re: New handlebar installation question All my connections are soldered within the switches so it looks like I'm going to have to cut the wires and either resolder them or use butt connectors.

    Bike issue questions

    I got myself some euro bars for my CB350 and now I'm curious about a couple things. 1. Do I have to drill a small hole in my new bars so the switches will work? By this I mean there is a small nipple inside the switch and a small hole on the stock bars that align so that the switch won't turn...

    So what kind of bars should I get?

    So I'm hearing that it might be wise to buy all 3, figure which one I like best, and return the other 2 sets.

    So what kind of bars should I get?

    I'm 5'6'' so I'm a medium height. So why Supermoto over the others?

    So what kind of bars should I get?

    1972 CB350. I'm a casual rider. I use the bike as a commuter/cruise around town bike. It's 99% stock and I'd like to keep it close to original. All I really want is for my handle bars to be lower and flatter but still allow me to be able to enjoy riding without being slumped over the tank...
