MOTORBIKE

Summary: Since I was a kid I wanted a vintage "straight frame" bike. In 2012, I picked up this 1972 Honda CB350 from a seller on Craigslist in Tennessee. I drove there and back in one day, and the next day stripped the ridiculous flame paint job it had when I bought it. Throughout the next few years I completed multiple rebuilds of the bike, including reupholstering the seat, replacing bars, rewired, relighted, repainted, rebuilt carburetors and rebuilt the top end of the engine. In the last rebuild (2019 or so), I replaced nearly all electrical components in the bike, replaced the seat entirely and took it down to the frame and repainted everything on the way back up. There are things I didn't list here, and many that took more than one try to get right. All in, a vintage bike is a labor of love and Iā€™m grateful to have had the opportunity to work on this one.
