Honda CB description

1972 CB350 K4

 

Here is a very nice 1972 CB350 K4 Twin in Honda’s “Light Ruby Red” color.  This motorcycle has been treated to a thorough detailing, and looks outstanding.  There are lower mileage CB350s out there, but few are as clean as this one.  It is also very hard to find red CB350s that don’t have badly sun faded paint.  The paint on this bike still is bright red.  Even the red zone on the tachometer is still a deep shade of red.  The side cover looks faded on top in the second photo.  It isn't.  My camera overloaded on the red in the sunshine.

Mechanically, this CB350 runs great.  It starts easily and settles into an even idle.  It pulls well through the gears and stops smoothly.  Headlight, taillight, brake light, turn signals, instrument lights, high beam indicator light and horn all work properly.  New front and rear tires (and tubes) with a classic tread pattern have been installed.  A new seat cover and strap in the correct Honda pattern was also installed.  It will remain soft and flexible for many years to come.

The gas tank is dent-free, but does have a few minor scratches.  The side covers are free of cracks, but the left side cover has a noticeable scratch, about an inch long.  The inside of the gas tank is very clean.  The original petcock would not flow gas on the reserve position, so a new Honda petcock was installed.  The carbs have been cleaned and rebuilt, and the fuel lines have been replaced with new ones.

Many other items on this 40+ year old motorcycle were tended to during the “nut and bolt” detailing process, such as replacing the drive chain.  It is not perfect, but nevertheless, it is still stunning.  As it stands now, this CB350 can be ridden and enjoyed, or rolled into your living room and admired as a work of motorcycle “art”.  Now is your chance to own this classic.

PayPal deposit of $500 within 24 hours of purchase required.  Balance due in cash at time of pickup.  I could possibly deliver within a several hundred mile radius of zip 16648 for $0.50 per loaded mile (one-way).  Mileage determined by using MapQuest to your location from zip 16648.  Full prepayment would be required in this case.  IMPORTANT - Contact me before purchasing to confirm that this option is available to your location.  All other delivery options are the sole responsibility of the buyer. 

This Honda has a clear Pennsylvania title in my name.  PA purchasers must pay PA sales tax.

Two short videos were added to YouTube - a walk around and a short ride by - so that the bike can be heard running.  Here is the link:

Is this Honda's inspiration for mass-centralisation

Wed, 21 Oct 2009

SORRY TO keep carpin’ on about porcelain bathroom products but this beauty, I think, is of great motorcycling significance. Feast on its elegant lines and classical, elegant beauty. Combining an integral hand basin (with a nifty electrically operated water pump in the cistern lid) this john not only provides ingenious space saving design techniques but also serves as a timely reminder to wash your hands once you’ve pointed Percy at the porcelain.

Casey Stoner To Be Named MotoGP Legend

Fri, 11 Oct 2013

There’s no question Casey Stoner was (and still is) one of the best riders ever to throw a leg over a motorcycle. His accomplishments on two wheels, especially his championships on both Ducati and Honda machinery, are proof. Next week at the MotoGP round at Phillip Island in Australia, Stoner will join a distinct group of riders as he will be officially inducted into the MotoGP Hall of Fame.

Honda to Shift Mid and Large Displacement Motorcycle Production to Thailand

Tue, 29 Nov 2011

Honda is reportedly moving production of 400cc and larger motorcycles to Thailand from Japan to reduce production costs and overcome the rising value of the yen. According to Japanese news outlet Daily Yomiuri, Honda plans to produce 400cc and 500cc models at a new factory to be built in the suburbs of Bangkok, Thailand. Honda currently produces small displacement models such as the CBR250R in Thailand, with larger models coming out of Honda’s factory in Kumamoto, Japan.
