My dad had one painted black like that but mostly unmodified until he sold it in '96. That brings back some good memories. If you ever see one floating around SE Michigan painted black with '70 sidecovers and '72 badges that'd be it.
That thing sounds and looks amazing. I've never ridden one of those CB350s before but I'd love to. I have mixed feeling about chopping fenders, but you did an amazing job on this one. Did you wet sand the black paint before putting clear coat on? I found that wet sanding the paint with a high grit sand paper (1000 or 1500) really helps with the final look. You still have to wet sand, cut and polish the clear coat, but smoothing out the paint beforehand makes the final product even better. (Or maybe you're better at laying down the paint then I am. I always end up with some orange peel or rough sots.)
Ease of install and timing. WAY easier than the CMC and Boyer. Didn’t need to fuss at all. Disconnect condenser, plug in the ignition, pre wired, plug and play.
Thanks that is interesting. Although you do endorse products on occasion, you seemed so adamant on the electronic ignition I was intrigued. Thanks for the reply.
AMAZING BIKE!!!!!!! So much history with this one!
TONS! So glad that we were able to finally finish it up. Quite the adventure.
Looks great, Brad!
Glad you like it! It’s a sharp bike!!!
Looks great Brian! Nice work! I think The little orange side cover Honda wings are on the wrong sides though. Minor detail but sounds good too!
Lol. He didn’t notice. Shhhhh.
What stands out to me are the black handlebars, wow! Is that semi-flat black? Great job overall!
The black bars really worked with this one.
Awesome job! the CB350 is simply my favorite vintage honda.

Hate the chopped fenders but everything else looks good.
Not my jam either. Not my bike! Lol
Miss my ol cb 350. Was a great bike. To me it sounded like a mini ducati. 30 years ago 😂❤
Lol. They are cool bikes.

I’d be interested to know why you thing the Charlie’s Place ignition system is so great (as oppose to others).
