QR Code Link to This Post I am selling this project café racer which I think is 85% to 90% done because I haven’t been able to ride it for three years and it has just been sitting there. I am 67 years old and my arthritis prevents me from having my legs bent up the way I would need to so I could ride it. I have been starting it and running it in place or taking short rides frequently enough so it starts right up.I live in Dexter which is 20 miles west of Jordan Creek Parkway on I80. I can deliver the bike to Des Moines with my pickup truck (or further if I get fair money for the bike).Clean title in hand and up to date registration. Mileage is 15,000 (only 400 since new top end).PLEASE NOTE, except when I show a purchase date, when I say a part is NEW I mean it was new 3 years ago when I was actively working on the bike and has been hardly used since then.THIS IS A CL350 WITH CB350 PIPES. I replaced the badly rusted side pipes with CB350 down pipes because it is difficult and expensive to find a good set of CL350 side pipes and according to the internet, the balanced CB350 down pipes make the bike perform slightly better.NOT a show bike by any means, but is fun to ride and gets some second looks.The good: This thing runs well. These bikes are only 326 cc but have 36 horsepower and are light. New battery June 2019. Clubman handlebars. New chain. New handgrips. Handlebar end mirrors. Tires are like new and were balanced 200 miles ago. There are still little rubber nubs on them – see pictures. Rear air shocks. New fork seals June 2019 Headlight and tail light with built in turn signals. New top end. I have receipts for pistons and machine shop work. Carbs rebuilt (by me). Carb diaphragms are solid. Retro-styled velocity stacks on carbs. New clutch cable. New front brake cable. New speedometer cable. New tachometer cable. Aluminum side covers on engine highly polished, almost like chrome. Almost all Phillips screws on the engine replaced with metric hex head screws. The Phillips screws can be a huge pain to remove. Brakes including twin leading shoe fronts not new but very good, it stops surprisingly fast for drum brakes. Tank looks good (from a couple feet away anyway) with GOOD job of cream coating in it. New driver rubber foot pegs. I left the electric starter on (because of the arthritis issue) and it works great. Kick start also works as it should. Recent engine timing and carburetors synched. New slash-cut mufflers. It has the little gizmo that allows you to use LED turn signals, so if you want to change to separate LED turn signals you can just basically hook up the swires.Extras: Clymer repair manual. Honda dealer shop manual – from a scanned copy so a little fuzzy in spots. A file folder with 3 dozen receipts for parts, etc.Not so good: It runs out well, but it idles kind of rough. Likely a carb issue and I am far from an expert with carburetors. The seat is plywood with a little foam and a vinyl cover over it. Doesn’t look too bad but it is not comfortable at all. If you look closely at the tank, or look at an angle in the sunshine you can see I put some bondo on it to fix a few dents. The headlight and taillight were inexpensive. A little of the reflective material on the headlight has flaked off. I can’t get the little bug light that blinks when the turn signals are on to work. The ignition key is kind of loose in the lock but it doesn’t fall out. If I was going to keep it this that is one of the things I would have fixed. Just search for “CL350 round plug ignition switch” on eBay and you will see you can get one for around $20. Since this is a CL350 it is geared a little lower than a CB350, but not by much. I recall that the rear sprocket on the CB350 has something like 42 teeth and the CL350 sprocket has 45 teeth.If I was still able to ride it I would have 1. bought a better seat, 2. had a professional adjust the carbs, 3. bought a better gas tank, 4. gotten a new ignition switch, 5. bought rear sets (foot controls).You can take a test ride if you have a valid motorcycle operator’s license, have cash in hand and can handle the bike. Moped/scooter experience doesn’t count. Bring a friend to test it if you don’t meet the criteria and want someone to test drive it.This vehicle will be sold “as-is”. There is no guarantee expressed or implied. You crash it on the test ride, you bought it.Cash only.Call or text. Let's block ads! (Why?)
