This a video walk through of a Clutch setting procedure that might just solve your shifting problems. I got it off Hondatwins, a guy named Steve posted this www.hondatwins.net/forums/48-e...
Make sure to print it out, and check off each step.
cb350/360 clutch adjustment procedure
Put slack in the cable.... I recommend you "set" the threaded adjuster at the handlebar perch at about 1/2 way in....That way you have some adjustment left in either direction.
Cable bottom adjuster (at case cover): thread it ALL the way in so you have maximum slack inside......
With case cover off engine, VERIFY the #10 ball bearing is in place (grease it in)....
Loosen adjuster locknut on case and screw the slotted bolt FULLY CLOCKWISE until it stops (This is the maximum clearance point, "Arm" should be fully " down" as pulled by the spring).....
Replace cover and snug the Phillips head screws...... Tighten the slotted adjuster COUNTERCLOCKWISE (anti-clockwise) until you feel it start to apply pressure to the clutch (you actually feel the springs push back)... Turn it CLOCKWISE until the pressure JUST releases, Then 1/8 turn CCW, and snug the locknut......
Pull the clutch lever against the grip..... Tighten BOTTOM cable adjuster (out) until the lever JUST touches/closes at the perch.....Lock it in place......
Minor adjustments for desired lever "reach" and release points can now be done at the UPPER (perch) adjuster........
It took me longer to type this than it should take to adjust the clutch.........

Just found this, I think you may have just helped me with cb500 clutch issues. They seem to have a similar set-up.
Hey thanks so much for this video, I was getting frustrated with my clutch but I think I got this now.
Thanks making this video man, I just performed 66sprint's procedure and am about to mess with the engagement screw like you mentioned here. Clean bike as always!
Thanks for this video! Just changed my clutch and still wasn't making the power i thought it should but after the adjustment it's 3x faster!
Good helpful video, thanks!
Good video, have you ever heard of anyone using the rekluse clutch in any of the CB bikes
@blake moser I got a stainless Allen screw set from z1 enterprises. But you can get them from other stores online
The adjuster locknut on the slotted bolt pushing the rod into the clutch rod is missing on my bike. I'd like to find a replacement but am having trouble figuring out what size it is? Do you know what it is?
Any photos or diagrams of how the bearing goes in there behind the plate?
66sprint has basically helped me build my entire motorcycle over the phone.
do you know if the clutch adjustment screw is the same on the cb350 and the cb360?
Would you happen to know where to get that direct mounted shifter you have?
Hi Nick! Maybe you can help me..I'm have problems adjusting my clutch. It seems like I did it well, but here's the issue. After adjusting the clutch as explained in Steve's post and your video the engine stalls and the bike advances when I engage it into first gear, like the clutch isn't disengaged. It's weird because when I pull the clutch handle I can feel resistance. I can feel the spring being compressed. Furthermore, when I start the engine the starter seems to stay engaged sometimes. Could these problems be related? Thanks for any help you can give me! -Viviane
Hi just curious what size of nut is on the clutch adjusting bolt
Did you replace all of your engine cover and misc screws with hex heads? If so where did you purchase them from? Would like to do the same on my CL450
I have to ask. what the devil is that little brass knob above the adjuster screw and nut on the side?
