1970 Honda CB350ss

1970 Honda CB350 Super Sport that's been in the family since 1970! Original mileage. Bike is in original condition. Only "new" parts on the bike are the tires, inter tubes, and battery! Never ridden in the rain. "Smiles" was given her name from my father. He bought the bike from Marin Motor Sports in Marin County, California for a price of just over $700, which included two helmets!
The bike had sat for a number of years, but only needed the carbs cleaned out to get running again. In August of 2006, I had the bike thoroughly tuned up by Escondido Cycle Salvage. Scott did a great job of getting her back in street shape!

are there baffles in that pipe?

[kf6vgz]

Bike is totally stock. So, whatever the stock pipes have in them is what she's got.

Nice bike man! I;m thinking about buying one...are they expensive to keep up? Are they reliable?

[kf6vgz]

This bike fires up easier than my 2009 Ducati Monster 696. Very reliable for a near 40 year old bike!

I bought one off eBay this summer. Frame #1030. She's not running yet, but we're very close to it. Waiting on a modern electronic ignition module to replace the one I fried. Having second thoughts about putting electronics on her and going back to breaker points.

Cool. 2010/2011 the Old School is the new School.

i remember learing to ride bigger bikes back in the day on a 70 honda 350, on the gravel roads of nebraska

thanks man! thats a great idea! what i was told to do was buy a pack of marbles and bottle of rust cleaner and put it inside the tank and woosh it around for a while. but your idea seems better

[TheSkootertrash]

@bikercc What I did was plug all the holes, put in a whole carton of bb's, wrapped it all up in towels and a couple pillows, stuffed it in the dryer and turned the dryer on for a few hous, changing position a few times. But unless your tank is totally free of gas fumes, or you have a very understanding 'ol lady, you might not want to try it. It still doesn't look new inside, but at least I don't have chunks of rust clogging up the filters.

[bikercc]

how did you clean out the tank? just hose it out with water?

Very pretty bike. 4.000 is the original mileage??? It's amazing. Keep and take care her, its a jewel. Congratulations.

I have one , 1972 K4 with 12.500 miles.

I have that exact same model. Mine was a barn find that hadn't run in 25 years. When I bought it, the fuel petcock was missing. But you're right. Once I found a petcock, cleaned the tank and bought a battery for it, the thing fired right up like it never sat still. Couldn't believe it.
