Great job looks good, your starting to look like a pro at diagnostics
Great video
I did enjoy immensely.
i would check the oil filter cover as it can go on 3 ways but only one is correct. nice job have one too

I'd leave the tank alone bubba Louie I think it looks cool just like it is
Wow! A 1970 Honda CB 350!Does this Gem bring back some fond memories. I owned a 1968 Honda CB 350, and it took me on many Adventures for a young man still in High School.
Sadly, I rode the poor thing into the Ground. By the time I was done with it, it was more than ready for the Junk Yard.
I've thought about acquiring a Similar Vintage Honda CB 450 to refurbish back to almost New condition. These Bikes are hard to come by, in any sort of condition worth putting money into it. Lots of them battered and beat up and left to rust in someone's back yard. Rust is the enemy of us all!
Thanks for the Video. Brought back some good memories.
Nice that you turned it over, over and over and ran it, then check the oil. Always check the oil first!
Why be so polite? He needs to be told.
I don't think you need to tell someone that dude.....
@@RJMStraya did you watch the video? Apparently he does need to be told
@@exptodd nope not the whole thing but unless he's completely clueless, he doesn't. I'm mechanically a beginner and even I know that. I think you're being a bit silly
@@RJMStraya Not at all. Read the comment again. You missed the whole point that he sat and turned the engine over and over even ran it THEN decided to check the oil. It is the simplest things that people forget. Could really cause some damage on that old engine if it were to be out or really low.
These old Honda’s are pretty bulletproof…..kinda surprised of how low the mileage is though, good find Joe. I had a ‘74 CB360t bought for $75 and a (high mileage) ‘71 CL350 Scrambler that was given to me after a few different “mechanics” couldn’t get it to run right. Turns out valves needed adjusting, was backfiring through the intake on the RH cylinder.
Glad to see both sidecovers still on it as those are usually the first thing gone from them! The airboxes shouldn’t cost more than $75/pair though, pretty easy to find used online.
I have a 69 cb350 super sport. They're actually quick little bikes for a small twin cylinder. And they're reliable!
And don't rev the damn thing to the moon when you get it running, leave it build oil pressure you yo-yo. !!!
i would leave the paint alone. chances are you'll damage the paint underneath, trying to remove the blue.
Also, makes sure all carb adjustments are perfectly the same on both carbs. you need to also either locate an original breather box and tubes, or run something thats the same on both carbs.
nice little find. would be a good little bike to hit the gas station to pick up some milk or snacks.
I’ve had several of these bikes you’re missing a part for the petcock it’s a fitting with threads on both ends one is in reverse
Or on the 74s is rubber
I love this, im restoring an Old moped myself so fun to see someone Else with an older project on Their hands
I have a old project too, 1974 Yamaha dt125 enduro I have put about 100$ into it and it runs perfect, picked it up for 150$
@@jimmyjohnjames I have a similar project to yours, a ‘75 Yamaha MX100B. Has no spark, compression, and some other miscellaneous parts.
If you have any questions feel free to ask!!
Mine had no spark, but it had compression and most of the other parts
@@jimmyjohnjames So where do you recommend I find OEM parts?
It's an earlier '70 engine. That redline of 10.5k was reduced shortly after to 9.5k with a different cam. The 10.5k engines are very popular with the vintage racers.
Great work man got it down! Cool bike looks like a great project and fun to run around town!
I had a CB 350 as a matter of fact I got my first ticket ever on mine, I got a ticket for driving out of class the Troopers that pulled me over were laughing at me because it started to rain,little did they know I could of cared less it was hot out anyway It was a reliable bike and was mint i used it as a daily driver I bought it for 350 bucks and sold it for 600 I bought in 1984.the bike just sat around in a little shed on an estate where my buddy's dad worked They said make an offer, 350 is what I offered and that was that ,I wish I still owned it.
Awesome bikes. I had a 71 350. It was gold. Toughest bike ever built. Until a old man and woman pulled out in front of him in an 85 k-car. The bike hit the driver's door and fender and totaled the car. It broke his legs and collar bone. But he recovered. I wish I had that bike back.
14:53 frankly im surprised you dont just have a wire stripper tool on hand. I got one called the Irwin Vise-Grip Wire Stripping Tool off amazon for $11. Has made dealing with smaller wire sizes so much easier
Has camera to look in cylinder. Does not have wire stripper. Yep
Its called plyers
@@lifeononeweel3008 you mean what he was using? That thing that isnt designed to strip wire? No SHIT you can use pliers, clearly my comment was about how using wire strippers makes it WAY easier.
And you only need two strands of copper for any electrical connection as well.
Outstanding! I pick up mine Monday morning! Can't wait. Thanks for showing the details of how to fix it.
love your videos man and the approach to turning over the bikes !! Keep it 100!!!
I'd leave the blue on the tank looks cool , had to comment before watching all the video
Great find! Glad you brought that bike back to life!!!
That is crazy cheap and great condition
those battery chargers dont work get one that charges car batterys
What a find!!! NICE WORK! I want to see this thing finished and on the road!
That’s a Winner! Good find👍
My uncle had a CB350 I’d like to get it from his son, awesome looking old bikes, his was solid black and no electric start though…
Wow that’s actually in good condition
YES , more street bike action!, love will it run bike videos.
I love this channel, this is how I know how to work on my own bikes!😁
Lovely old honda, great work, sounds lovely like an old singer sewing machine.
Takes me back to my first proper bike, CB200, sweet vid Joe.
In 1972 I bought a '71 CB350, with a red and white tank. It was immaculate, private owner seller, a coworker, and I loved the sound, the handling and how just plain fun and useful it was. I paid $700 and was so poor at the time I financed it through my cresit union. (Was earning about $3 an hour at the time! Rent on my cute 1-bedroom apartment was $90.) My 2 roomates when I moved out of the bungalow both had 450s, but I was skinny, so was able to keep up... LOL!
Joe I love watching your videos, from the picture you posted I saw the front and thought it was an old ct 90 you should definitely try and restore one of those they are good little bikes.
Your definition of nice and everyone else is not the same lol, cool find!
That screeching sound when the bike dies gives me goosebumps. Sounds like something is not lubricated as is should...
That big old crack in your garage floor I’m always waiting for that one and only sm part fall in there.
It looks like the San Andreas fault line 😂
Runs good, got a couple old project bikes in back I may dig into, couple 1960s bikes. One dirt one street. Great job. 👍
This was my father's 2nd bike in a weird greenie blue colour. I love the old single wing Honda logo.
Such a cool find! Would wish to have these over here in Germany. Recently bought a 1970 Kawasaki 350 Avenger as my first Real project👍🏼
Nice find man, just watching it now. You need to get a wire stripper / crimping tool, the right tool for the job makes it easier.
We about to hit 200k 🔥🔥🔥🔥
cant wait👍
@@chaseredlinger532 why u can’t wait u acting like it’s yo channel u don’t get paid he does
@@bikelifezay its a milestone, im not acting its just cool that hes just about there.
😂😂😂😂😂
@@bikelifezay LOL 😂 we are so fucked.
Nice one! I restored my 69 cb350 last year. It’s identical apart from the mud guards on yours. I’m in Australia so had to order all my parts from the USA.
You’ll get all the parts you need from common motors in Austin TX.
Also you are missing the 19mm nut that goes between the petcock and tank. Sync the carbies and she’ll run and rev better.
That was a good find pretty complete. You wouldn't get one for that price in the UK. I'd try and find an airbox for it. CV carbs are a pain to set up with pods. Treat yourself before your next project. Get yourself one of the remote workshop fuel tanks, they're cheap enough. Much easier, and safer, than pouring fuel down a pipe with a jug. The fuel tap is probably the right one. There should be a nut that screws to the tap and the tank. That's what you are missing.
nice find 2V!!
Cool bike. Not bad shape for the year and the price. You just can't beat an old Honda motorcycle.
Yeah man good classic bike 2vintage thee best
4 ought steel wool and wd 40 that chrome will really shine. Great looking old beast, great find.
That bike deserves are proper complete restoration no corners cut i used to work on those when they first appeared along with it 250 cc brother and the 250SS great bikes
And with the factory exhausts sounded great
Great find!!!!!
That bike, in that condition would easily get 4 to 5 grand in my area. Nova Scotia Canada
🤣
I found a 76 Honda xl 185 that was a barn find. Like a literal barn find. I rescued it from my old bosses dairy farm. Things practically brand new still. Started right up with new gas and spark plug. I’m wondering what it’d be worth. I can never find any online. Mine doesn’t have title but I can always file for a lost title since it’s from 76
Yeah, you spit on that pipe baby🤣🤣
Nice find 👌
Man I love the sound of it!👍
Runs good, got a couple old project bikes in back I may dig into, couple 1960s bikes. One dirt one street. GreT job.
Wow what a score!
Its awesome!! Them old bikes always run!! It's sounding like a bearing is squealing when the bike shuts off. I wonder if it had something to do with the starter?
Hi Joe, the paint Scheme on that bike is red at the top white at the bottom and the side covers are white with the emblem in the middle some of the bikes had those knee pads on the tank some did not I would think the earlier models did in the later models did not. Man-o-man if you could get your hands on a Scrambler of that year and cc size you would be having a ball with that I believe those were sl350 maybe that could have been CL, I know the smaller bikes I had an sl70 when I was just a young kid and that was one of the coolest bikes out. I think far better than the trail 70 because it looked like a big motorcycle.
Never ever seen anyone spit on the pipes like that before as well as other idiosyncrasies like not even checking the oil before firing it up in the hope that the oil might be present.
i've thrown dogshit at a Harley before....
@@MrKdr500 That's acceptable
I got an late 80s early 90s honda gold wng in nc you can get been sitting since 1993 40,000 miles complete no battery piece of winshield broken off all saddle bags and everything still on bike
You really should invest in a pair of wire strippers and a pair of crimpers. The crimp you made for the battery connection will corode and fail due to poor crimp.
I bought a basket case ‘68 CL350 from a friend in high school form$75. One of the best bikes I owned. Had a hard time getting it to run and finally discovered I had installed the point cam 180 degrees off, fired right up after that was corrected.
Them old Hondas are bullet proof. Good job
Good luck with the title business. If you can get a bonded for your state, Vermont is always an option. As said earlier, the union nut for the petcock is missing. Good luck.
Sweet, I just brought a 71 CL450 back to life
That noise you heard at the end sounded like the fuel boiling in the carbs, it can happen sometimes with older engines
👌nice piece of history I'd fix it up and shine it up and keep it.
When the seat fell down two times on his hand 🤣🤣🤣
What a great find. I am super jealous, you always get the best deals on these finds. It’s impossible to find bikes like this here in California and I have been looking for over a year. A bike in this condition would be a minimum of $2,000 within 700 miles of my house. Plus we don’t have any barns near me.
Nice find!!
Love the vids
Thank you!
That's my favorite bike I have restored 4 of those from ground up they are great bikes
Awesome stuff! I've got a similar year cl350. What did you do for setting your float height? Looks like your carbs aren't leaking at all and are working well
Funny as heck 🤣😂 how u make the lady look bad 🤣🤣
If it turns over you got it. Clean points and carbs it should pop. Nice bike.
It's the point u have a timing on the points for each of the 2 cylinder
it's got.the headlight and foot peg well were good to go
Great video
I can dig out my old manual if you need info,,,this was my first bike,,
You find so many vintage bikes its ridiculous!
That thing is money. Excellent find, make it awesome.
With twins you can adjust one carb while you run that side on engine .then put spark plug on other side and take cap off that side u have just done used to do that with cb200
nice, got a new project on my channel as well. 1975 tm75 I picked up for $150. imma try and get it running.
Really interesting engine doctor ❤
Awesome old scrambler!
That's not a Scrambler that's a CB 350 the CL350 is the scrambler
I'd leave that tank alone the color looks good . I've seen stock Hondas of various years with red white and blue color sceems .
I used to own a honda cbr250 and i loved it
Sweet ignition is on so you got to use the kill switch on handle bars to operate. Lucky break!!!
Nice find.
My first motorcycle was a 1973 CB 350. best bike ever.
Getting an old barn find running should NEVER be the first priority. There are so many things that could be wrong with the engine, the first priority should be a thorough check to determine if the engine is sound. One broken piston ring or a stuck valve could cause untold expensive damage if you attempt to start it.
Yay, a two wheeler!!
I love this mechanic!
😂
I think a cable stripper and a crimp tool should be on your shopping list :)
On the petcock there should be a rubber peace that slides over the treds about half way then there’s a skinny nut that tightins down on both sides of the rubber peace. U might be able to make it at home. Hope it helps
The skinny nut is the guy doing the work.
Those are fun to ride, I ever get a correct seat for the old pig out back of shop I'll start riding her. Fires right up, runs great, and guess what ? Still has original tool kit. Needs a couple tires but hey it's a runner. Ugly ad hell right now but a runner. Have fun with that, will be curious what you do to it.
You need to set those carbs with vacuum gauges to get them exactly precise. Those Hondas for jdms finest, definitely not like the cheap chinesium bikes which are the same exact cast that was basically stolen or sold over the years. Definitely not the same quality.
Man you need to find a cb 350 four there kinda fast 😳
200k special garage tour 😁
I got one from a guy in Richmond, VA for $100 a few months ago
Don’t forget to replace the blinker fluid 😉
I found a cm200t from 82, guy said the engine was seized and nothing worked. When i got there it was rough, rusted and gross. Tires in that stuck in one place for way to long condition. Gave him 300$ for it.
It only had 1600 miles on it so i thought it was weird that the engine had seized.
Got it in my garage, and pulled the tank, grabbed the carb, realized it was in gear, dropped it into neutral and it spun no problem. So i changed the oil and hooked it to a lawn mower battery.
Found the real problem and porbably why the bike was parked, the starter solenoid went bad, so i just jumped the cables onto the other side. A little starter fluid had it running on a single piston.
After taking everything apart, cleaning connections, polishing the chrome, airing the original tires and replacing the brake pads everthing ran like a dream.
I pulled it apart and repainted over the winter and now i have put 2k miles on it just putzing around town and then using it occasionally for commute when my intruder is being worked on.
The petcock is just right it needs a nut wich has righthanded thread on one end and lefthanded thread on the other.👍
