    One of the biggest issues to date on the CB350, CL350 / CB360, CL360, CJ360 / CB450, CL450 families of motorcycles is the upper triple trees. OEM Honda upper triple trees are notorious for cracking on the "clamp around fork tube" designs that were being used in the '70s. This is such a problem that a not broken OEM triple tree can be nearly impossible to find for these motorcycles. If you do happen to find one, the price is unrealistically high.
    Casting processes and metallurgy have greatly improved since the 1970s which allows us to remake the stock triple trees to an even higher quality than the original ones. We have thickened the fork pinch ears and cast them using a modern aluminum alloy so the triple tree remains flexible and strong. Along with these improvements, they also retain mount and bolt holes in the proper locations so when you go to install it onto your motorcycle, it bolts on just as a factory triple tree did.
    If you are riding a CB175, CL175, CB200, CL200, SL350, CB500T, CB500K, CB550K, CB550F, CB350F, CB400F, and CB750 and are in need of a replacement triple, we do not currently make replacements at this time. However, contact us via common-motor.com and let us know if you would be interested in having them made. If there's enough demand for it, we can move forward to manufacture some of these other styles in the future.

    It's great to see that Common Motor continues to find manufacturers for these very hard to find parts.

    Brendan you rock, I've been following you for years, everything you do is with such detail ALMOST anyone can do all these repairs. Thanks for keeping the old Hondas alive, I will be being a rebuild on a 1982 cb450t I hope in April. Looking forward to getting parts from Common-Motors and reviewing video footage. Pretty sure I've watched them all, rebuilt a dozen plus bikes in my youth, my son wants a bike, so here I go again, have three old Hondas that are a mess I bought over the years, anyway I'm babbling thx for all you do, reach out to you soon.

    The triple tree on my '73 350G broke in the exact same spot after 50 years of sitting in a shed somewhere, wasn't over tightened, wasn't touched in any way, the moment I released the bolts it snapped in half instantly. It's just the bad and old aluminum pour technique.

    Those triples are killer! I bought one couple years ago for a tired 350. Fit and finish is perfect. They mount right on. Well worth the price.

    I wish I had known you could get your manufacturer to make these for other bike models - I had to replace the triple tree on a 72 CB500 last year. Found one on ebay that was in OK shape and is working fine - but I would have ordered a new (and better) one from you had I known about it! Thanks Brenden - always good stuff.

    Hey Brendan as always am finding your tutorials valuable so thank you very much. Question on the CB 200 lower tree clamp. What is that lug protruding outwards? Cable guide?

  • @El_SantoTaco

    CB175 owner here. I'd love an updated triple tree clamp!

      Email us! Best way for us to keep track of the headcount. Things last this have to be made in large batches at a time so I need enough CB175 owners to need it to make a batch.

    question: How come you don't include some content on the old GL 1000, 1200?? not just triple tree's but, all around content.

  • @terencemeehan8237
    @terencemeehan8237 Před rokem

    Hi Brenden, thanks for your excellent video. I have a CB450 K5 and the triple clamps seem in good shape, would you recommend changing them for safety reasons or would I feel it crack with out killing myself. Respect your opinion. Thanks

    Sir, does replacing the triple tree resolves the one side pulling problem of a motorcycle? " my front fork to tyre & rims all are okay " still my motorcycle is pulling to the left side .

    Looking for a triple tree with speedometer mounts for 1979 Honda cb750k. Who makes them?

      Do you have a top triple tree for the CB400F (1975)
      I bought a Common Motor top triple tree for my CB250G5 a while back and this has the same forks as the CB400F The only difference seems to be the half moon cutaway where the ignition switch console fits

  • @akrobeaver
    @akrobeaver Před rokem

    Hi, short question, is that working also ont the CB250 g5 from 1975? I heard that it has same part as CB360.
    Please let me know.
    Thanks

    • @Common-motor
      @Common-motor  Před rokem

      Yes! If you have one of the CB250's from the UK they are the same as the CB350 / CB360s. As long as your CB250 is using the clamp around the fork tube design of triple tree like the ones in the video, our CB350 / CB360 triple tree will be what you need.

  • @wayneloades3703
    @wayneloades3703 Před 5 měsíci

    Where can I got the top triple tree for the 1974 CB350F

    • @matthewetmoi8436
      @matthewetmoi8436 Před 8 dny

      Mine cracked about ten years ago and I kept an eye on ebay for nearly a year until one came up for sale... I ended up paying $150 dollars for it. And no doubt it's the same poor quality cast metal as the original
