Honda CL description
Up for sale is a 1969 Honda CL350 cafe racer. This is a great bike, I rescued it from a neighbor who was moving and thinking of parting it out. He started with a good running CL350 last summer and tore it down. All seals and bearings were replaced. The tires were replaced with new Avons. The motor was gone through and rebuilt and bored .020" over with new pistons. New gaskets throughout. It has an Acadia Vintage Motorcycles electronic ignition and a Ricks stators high output stator. New Mikuni VM30 carburetors. New clutch. The bike shifts smoothly through all the gears. The bike runs VERY strong and has excellent compression in both cylinders. It's a dream to ride, it handles very well and is much faster than you would expect a 350 to be. I get thumbs up wherever I go and it gets tons more attention than my Ducati.
The bad- the previous owner was not particular about cosmetics. There are numerous scratches all over the bike. The frame looks great in pictures, but it looks like it was painted with a spray can. (It was ). In spots, the engine looks like it was painted with a brush. The PO also installed the wrong kick start lever, which stripped the shaft coming out of the case. I have all of the parts required to fix it, but it would require an engine tear down and I didn't want to do that because it runs so well. He also removed the starter but I have all the removed parts to reinstall it. In short, the bike in its present state needs to be bump started, which isn't a big deal because it starts so easily, but obviously could be a problem if you kill it in traffic. That said, everything else on the bike works except the brake light. I haven't had time to troubleshoot it but I'm pretty sure it's a simple fix. The headlight is an updated 55w halogen unit and is much brighter than the original. The turn signals and switches all work fine. The previous owner put about 1000 miles on it since it was completed; I have ridden it about 500 or so. I got the carbs about 90% dialed in- I didn't go any further because I knew I would be selling it and I live near Denver at 5200 feet. If you are the buyer and live in a lower lying area, the bike will need to be rejetted. It runs just a little rich right now and has a flat spot around 5000 rpm. This is a great bike to ride as is, or take apart and make it perfect. I would keep it but I have too many bikes already. I cannot ship but I will assist with shipping any way I can. $500 deposit due via PayPal with balance due within 5 days via cash or certified funds. I can hold it for up to 45 days if you want to pick up in person. I'm pretty flexible. Thanks for looking. Any questions, feel free to ask. |

Honda has patented a technical solution from the arsenal of the Gold Wing tourer.
Thu, 02 Apr 2020The modern Honda Gold Wing is equipped with a double wishbone front suspension, which not only increases ride comfort, but also allows the geometry of the motorcycle not to change during acceleration and braking. Lever suspension, which stabilizes the bahavior, may appear on other models of the company in the future. This is hinted at by patent images of similar systems integrated into the design of completely different motorcycles - the “classic” CB1100 and the small-capacity C125 Super Cub.
Honda Likes to Dress Up
Fri, 31 Oct 2008Who doesn’t love Halloween? Well my neighbor down the street who turns off all his lights and flips the sprinklers on for Halloween night doesn’t, but he’s a jerk. Honda was in a Halloween spirit when they came up with this ad campaign consisting of some of their rides “dressed” in ridiculous outfits.
Honda And Repsol Celebrate 20 Years Together
Mon, 10 Feb 2014If we were to play a game of word association, the mention of “Repsol” would automatically trigger “Honda” from the audience, or at least anyone who pays the slightest bit of attention to Grand Prix racing. That’s because the two companies have achieved much success in this, their 20th year as partners. The longest running partnership between sponsor and manufacturer in the history of the Motorcycle World Championship, Repsol Honda has won 10 World titles, 124 race wins and 338 podiums in 500cc and MotoGP.
