- We take our vintage Honda CB350 for its first ride since putting it back together. This motorcycle was completely disassembled when I got it,
Plus performance test of the Mikuni VM28 carb upgrade. I like this motorcycle and LOVE what this kit from speedmotoco.com does for it.

I just did this upgrade. Just started it it's running rich but fired right up. Thanks for doing these videos.
It takes some fine tuning. I was happy with it. Thanks for watching.
Honda really made a great mid engine bike when they built this. People like the 4 pot but the simplicity and ultra reliable twin is better IMO. Around town. Country B roads, commuting to work. It's one of them bikes were you throw your jacket & lid on and just go. No race leathers. Race bots & gloves. Just a user friendly bike for anyone..I see honda are bringing it back to life.
Hope that the 350 will get offered in the US.
In 1976 I had a used CL350 with Hooker Headers. It was way too loud but the engine sounded great to me at the time. Now I like them quieter but still love the sound. It was the most fun I ever had on a bike.
The CL350 is one of my favorite bikes. Loads of fun, great riding position and incredibly capable. I think I may need to fin another one. Thanks for watching.
Great bike! Fun vids, thx. I have a red 1972. Bought it in high school! Runs great! Be safe!
That’s awesome. The CB/CL350’s are some of my favorite bikes.
Looks great and turned out fantastic 🎉. Thanks for sharing.
So much fun bringing this guy back to life. Will be putting a cb750 back together that I got for the same guy. Completely dissembled.
That was my dream bike , in 73 I was 16 in HS i had a 80cc dirt bike.
They are so much fun to ride. Time to find one and make your 16 year old dreams come true.
@@motorcyclerewind I have a helix and reflex and a shadow, wife says, stop dreaming.
I've enjoyed watching your Cb350 videos. I've got one, just wish it wasn't so loud. Seems to vibrate the pegs more than I'd like too.
Thanks for watching! What mufflers are you using?
Did you know the cable router in the middle of handle bars is there for a reason... I had an issue with after-market cable being too short and would accelerate the engine while turning because it was routed wrong...
Definitely have to be careful. Thanks for watching.
Lovely bikes completely bullet proof if maintained good job👍🏻
Thanks for watching.
That bike's hot...don't let anyone "cafe" it out...
Agreed
That's funny I also lost cylinder #2 and didn't even realize because I just got the bike. Then it started breaking up on cyl #1. I got points and a new set of coils on the way, cyl #2 has no spark and the coils are super old. The points were set wrong and firing on the timing mark, I also need to check the timing advance mechanism. Would be sweet to get a se of those carbs too but I don't have $400 right now haha It's an 1970 sl350 cafe racer and my second motorcycle that's not a dirtbike. First was a naked 1981 gl1100 cafe style that I rebuilt about 5 or 6 years ago and should have never sold it. The guy who bought it didn't know how to check the oil and hydro-locked the motor putting 4 quarts in it. Sad day haha
You're on the right track. Also make sure your idle screws are set the same and the cable adjusters. Do what you can to make sure your carbs synced.
Speaking of hydro-locked check out my video about an abandoned Kawasaki GPZ1100 that had nearly 4 gallons of liquid in the case. czcams.com/video/wvuWm09Jl3c/video.html
@@motorcyclerewind Exactly what I'm gonna do, once the coils get here I'll go over everything as I didn't realize until literally yesterday #2 was dead hahahaha. Will definitely watch the video you linked! Subscribed too, I want to start my venture of restoring some bikes to sell not just for myself to burn a hole in my pocket hahaha
I really miss my 75 CB 350. This bike reminds of it.Mine was gold with cocktail shaker mufflers.
I like the gold ones...
I love vintage bike
I do too!!
Thanks for watching.

🥰 Thanks for sharing!
thanks for watching really appreciate it
Sounds great !
Jealous of your non-bouncing-around tach needle.
Cheers !
Thanks 👍
How did you get the air filters to fit on the mikuni carbs? i bought the same kit from speedmotoco and I dont have enough room to mount the air cleaners due to the intake boots not being angled outward like the originals.
I modified the Uni foam air cleaner to make it fit. Or you can contact them and have them send you the angled intakes.
Thanks for watching.
I see a whole lot of fixin' to do yet.
You're right. Lots of little things to sort out. it's way better now than the pile of parts it was.
Lots of bikes won't even idle on 1 cylinder let alone go down the road.
Who needs any stinking EFI?
You are so right. You could ride this sucker around in just one cylinder.
How much are you asking for it? If the price is right, it's exactly what I want!
It sold for $2,200.
One cylinder all the way
Nothing like a 175cc single cylinder. 😂🏍️ Thanks for watching.
Better with an helmet and gloves ! 😮
Dually noted. Thanks for watching.
