I have been interested in these classic tiny 4 cylinders ever since I first read about them.
If you've ever ridden one you would understand just how sweet they are. Not too powerful but smooth, willing, and unique; just as Honda wanted it to be.
I luckily found this example 6 miles away from me and couldn't resist after taking 1 ride on it.
The previous owner had bought it out of someone's storage and took it to a repair shop. Some of the work the shop performed included cleaning carbs, adjusting the valves, new tires and tubes, spark plugs and voltage regulator.
He installed the aftermarket single side exhaust and he rode it for a few years before selling it to me.
I have owned it for three years and delighted in teaching my daughter how to kickstart a classic Honda. Over the 3 years, I replaced the rear shocks and spring assemblies because the originals were bouncy. The drippy fuel petcock valve required a new bowl and gasket. I sourced new Honda instrument gauge rubber isolators and changed out the bulbs while I was there. A new front brake caliper and fluid flush was necessary this year and the engine oil and filter was recently changed.
It's 50 years old and it's not perfect. The front wheel acts a bit out of balance, and the mirrors look aftermarket. At high rpm's the tachometer needle starts fluctuating, but the tach works fine around town at normal rpms.
If you have specific questions or need more photos just let me know. I'm not an expert on these; I can't be sure about the originality of everything. I simply loved riding it around my small town and getting thumbs up.
"Kickstarting a Honda CB350F" video my daughter and I made for YouTube. I tried to share a link to it below.

This 1974 Honda is a great find for any motorcycle enthusiast and would make a great addition to anyone's collection. Don't miss out on this Honda CB350f.
Located right in the Middle of the USA!
I can help work with a delivery company of your choice if you win the auction and decide to hire and pay someone to transport it to you, but I'd rather see you in person and trade paperwork.
I added a couple pictures of flaws I want to disclose:
A little dent that is on the front chrome fender. And someone added a butt connector on each side of the rear turn signals wiring. The lenses do say MADE IN JAPAN though. And they work fine.
