This rare, one of a kind, CB350G won The Best in Show Trophy at the AMA/VJMC Mid-Ohio Vintage Motorcycle Show last week. I purchased this CB350 "Flying Dragon" design tank and sidecovers new in the box from a collector in Japan. The Psychedlic paint design was produced by the Honda Factory in Japan as a add on accessory for the USA market to help move slow moving bike inventory in 1972 and 1973 only. Before I discovered this particular set it was thought that the "Dragon" sets were only made for the Honda Scrambler CL350 and CL450 models. After extensive research I have found they also made sets for the CB350G and the SL350 models in very very limited numbers. All the articles that have been written about the Flying Dragon sets state that they were made for the 1972 and 1973 Honda Scramblers only (models CL350 & CL450) Yet here is my CB350 sporting the Dragon tank and sidecovers. Check out the attached Motorcycle Classic article stating the Flying Dragons were only made for the CL350 and CL450. You may find Flying Dragon sets for the Scramblers occasionally on Ebay or Craigslist, as a matter of fact I am offering a NOS set for a Cl350 in a seperate listing. But I doubt you will find a set for a CB350 used or NOS anywhere..... As a matter of fact I believe my CB350 set is the only one in existence..... making it beyond rare. After purchasing the tank and sidecovers I went on an search to find a 1973 Honda CB350G (The only CB350 model with the front disc brake, passenger grab rail and chrome fork ears) that is worthy of displaying the Dragon set. I found this low mileage, one owner bike and went to town making it look and run like a new bike. After a complete tuneup including ultrasonic cleaning the carbs, oil change and new fuel lines, installing a Pamco electronic ignition, new period correct dunlop tires and tubes, new battery, and a complete front disc brake overhaul it was done and ready to ride and show. There are no visible flaws on this bike. No dents, dings, rust or scratches anywhere. the inside of the tank is flawless and looks new. the seat is original and has no rips, tears or flaws. The frame paint is original with no flaws. The chrome on the bike is original and is rust & dent free. It's the nicest all original un-restored 43 year old bike you will find anywhere and it starts and runs like it did when it was new. The original factory box & packing, owners manual, and tool kit are all included with the bike. 2,327 actual miles Clear Missouri title in my name. Click here for the Motorcycle Classics Flying Dragon Article I have described my bike, in my personal opinion, both honestly and accurately. This show winning bike is in my and the AMA Mid-Ohio VJMC show judges opinion, one of the nicest all original unrestored Vintage Japanese bikes in existence. It is however a 44 years old unrestored bike and may show some signs of age and wear and tear so please check out the photos closely, ask questions and or make an appointment to see the bike in person before bidding. I'm located in Mid-Missouri 20 miles east of Columbia Missouri 5 miles north of I-70 between Kansas City and St Louis.

Schwantz and Mackenzie on the Nurburgring box
Mon, 10 Dec 2012A 500GP bike never fails to stop me in my tracks and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this Schwantz example from the early nineties, proudly displayed on the Arai stand at the recent Motorcyclelive show. On loan from Crescent Suzuki and accompanied by a rostrum publicity shot from the 1990 German GP at the Nurburgring, I felt the urge to write a few words on that special weekend. I started the year running my own 250 GP team with fairly standard TZ Yamahas but was drafted in as Kevin Schwantz’s team mate after Kevin Magee suffered a serious head injury at the second Grand Prix in Laguna Seca. With no testing and some major Spanish food poisoning I finished 8th at the next round in Jerez then followed that up with a 5th place in Misano. Next up was the Nurburgring and after qualifying on the second row of the grid, my crew chief Geoff Crust informed me he had a premonition of a race day rostrum finish. He also told me I better make it come true as he was already looking forward to a few post race celebratory refreshments. While I hoped Crusty was the new mystic meg, the truth was I would have been more than happy to buy the beers if I made it to the flag inside the top five. I had an outside chance of catching one major scalp as Wayne Rainey was riding with a nasty hand injury but I suspected adrenalin would see him through the day. I also followed Mick Doohan a fair bit in practice but he was beginning to find his feet on the Rothmans Honda so was going to be another problem. When the lights went out Schwantz and Rainey went straight to the front I while I hung in behind Doohan and Pier Francesco Chilli, and then it happened. Coming out of the bottom right hand hairpin, Doohan and Chilli simultaneously high sided in one of the most spectacular crashes of the season. I never liked seeing any fellow riders crash but I made the most of this early race gift and rode my 160bhp/115kg RGV hard to the flag, claiming my first podium of the season. We partied hard (win or lose we always did) that night and I went on to have my best ever season finishing fourth overall in the championship. After the last round in Australia, I finished second to Kevin at Sugo in Japan then won in Malaysia at another international race that KS didn’t attend. I also tested at Eastern Creek for the following season but then was flicked from the team for reasons that still remain a mystery. Hey Ho!
Church of MO: 2011 Honda CB1000R Review
Sun, 19 Dec 2021This sweet Honda lost out to the Triumph Speed Triple ten years ago, mostly for a deficit of horsepower. But now that all ten-year old motorcycles are archaic compared to the current crop, we like it even better than we did then. The Honda CBR1000R was light-handling, easy-riding and even nice to look at.
AMA Supercross: 2012 Daytona Results
Mon, 12 Mar 2012James Stewart gave his 2012 AMA Supercross championship hopes a much needed boost with a big win in sloppy, muddy conditions at Daytona International Speedway. Heavy rains made the Ricky Carmichael-designed track in Daytona’s tri-oval section even more difficult than the GOAT conceived, with the terrain rough, choppy and rutted. Series point leader Ryan Villopoto became an early casualty of the track conditions, sliding outon the second corner.
