This video series features the complete restoration of a 1972 CL350 Honda Scrambler motorcycle. The videos should help anyone whether working on a cafe racer build or a full-on original restoration. I'm definitely not an expert so please refer to your manuals for proper disassembly and assembly instructions. Please leave comments if you have any questions. I'll be happy to help answer questions if I can confidently provide solutions. Again, I'm not a professional. This is my 2nd Honda motorcycle restoration and I'm learning every single day. I'd love to hear your tips if you have better ways to do things. I hope you find the series useful and entertaining. I strive to show as much detail as possible so that the videos can be used as not only a how-to resource but also a reference for the placement and original set up of parts and systems.
If you don't have one already please get a manual for your specific project. There are many available online for download for free. Common Motor Collective, from which I source many of my replacement parts, has a fantastic resource on their website: bit.ly/CBManuals You can also join groups on Facebook and get involved in the community.
Keep on wrenching, Friends! b

The black/white wire that you hooked the coils and ignition modules to. Do you know if it is a switched power line?
Our m unit basic has us doing a custom wiring harness. Thinking I could connect all four wires into one wire and run it to an auxiliary output on the m unit basic
Thanks for all you do. Fun watching the three new ones today

Yes. It’s tied to the kill switch.

Let me know what kind of benefits you notice. I have the pamco version but have been procrastinating about putting it on. You make it look pretty easy.

When I put it on my 70 CB it was a night n day difference plus I don’t have to deal with points. I’m sure they are all similar. This one is very simple to install. Seriously.
