Hey everyone. FNG here. Lurked for some time but I just picked up a project and was hoping to get some feedback, advice, critique, etc.... I recently picked up a 76 cb 360 and have a desire to do some customizing. The question I have is, it's in pretty good shape (minus the airbox covers) and I wonder if I'd be better off to restore it or build a scrambler/tracker type bike. I don't intend to keep it, do to my wifes "no more than 3 bikes" policy ::) (FZ1 and ER-6N). I was hoping to get it running well, make some mods, and sell it to start another project. Working in the garage is my therapy and I alternate from metal to wood to keep my yin and yang in order ("metal time" after making a bed from reclaimed wood). Here is a pic of the bike. I will be looking for some CL high pipes (like everone else on here :'( ) If I go on to chop and modify. Bike doesn't run currently but the petcock was left on and the carbs are grubby is all ( I hope). Pistons have good comp. and engine turns over fine with the starter. Previous owner (friend and race car builder) said it ran when he parked it two years ago.

Thanks in advance and If your ever near Jellystone Natl. Park stop by. Beers always cold and the trout are usually up for the fly (usually...not always).
 
If the plan is to sell it, just get it running and pass it on. Honda 360s are one of the single most common bikes from the 1970s and it's extremely difficult to make any money off of them. If profit isn't your motivation, feel free to cut it up to your heart's content. Because they're so common, you're not hurting anything by modding it up. :)
 
Oh hey man. I'm betting you were the one who friended me on fb, huh. My bad, I had no idea who you were! Welcome aboard though. There's a couple of us around town, we'll have to meet up for a ride this spring.
 
Yeah Ringo. That was me aka "fackbook stalker". Love the bike you built. Totally helped me sell the wife on a project. Thanks! We'll definetly have to go for a ride once the snow melts.
