Subject: new guy, 73 honda cb350

been building this bike for about a year, picked it up for 100 bux with title in hand. sprayed oil in the case for about a week and everytime i did i would slowly kick the bike over a couple times. replaced the points/plugs/battery as well and the bike fired right up after sitting in a field for 10 years. painted the frame, put the curent tank on it and painted it, found the bars somewhere and cut them down, put kids dirt bike levers on it, built the seat out of 2 cut down vw bug running boards and covered it... i need to finish the wiring, make some switches for the turn signals/headlight, find some turn signals i like, new pegs, shift lever, and find some 350 side covers. lookin forward to finally getting to ride this bike. hope to learn alot while im here. heres some pix. i was going for a sortof cafe'esk style but not...









and me checking the feel of the bike, i feel big on it. im gonna replace the seat someday but for now it works.
