Back into motorcycles again!

#1 Unread post by imorgan202 »

After getting rid of my '93 Kawasaki EX500 and '79 KZ650 last spring, I didn't expect to be back into motorcycles anytime soon. Well, rising gas prices, a broken van, and the want for warm summer day trips has brought me full circle.

I just picked up a '71 Honda CL350 2 weeks ago, She was running great until I started taking her apart! I just want to make sure everything is tuned properly.

I'd love to start a blog here since she's my new daily driver. I have many more pictures, and upon being accepted to the group, I'll keep everyone updated!

Glad to be back,
Ian

A double welcome - both back to bikes, and to the forum :welcome:
Don't give up.

Not now, not soon, not after being continually knocked down.

If you never give up, you can never truly fail.

Thank you all. It's been raining here in Michigan for over a week straight. I've never seen it like this! I just can't wait to get out there, and be riding every day. Luckily, Summer is upon us.

360s... 350s were a lot more plentiful and are a lot more common among the vintage race crowd, so there's tons of aftermarket goodies for them. Thanks for the kind words, hopefully I'll have one together again some time soon.
