In the late 70's I had a CB350.
When I decided to get back into bikes last year I looked for something like the 350 but with more power. Went to a dealer and everything had changed! Sports bikes and cruisers, no standards (the closest I could find was a naked sportbike). I ended up getting a Triumph ST. Recently I was discussing the old Japanese standards and comparing them to what is available today. My viewpoint was that with modern tires, bikes like the CB350 would handle and stop as good as (if not better) than the current crop of cruisers. Several folks in the forum disagreed. So you guys have ridden these old bikes recently -- am I full of it?
Next question: What does a CB350 in fair condition generally go for? Now I have my "daily rider", I am considering a 2nd older bike I can tinker on and enjoy.
