1969 Honda CB350 project
Posted: Sun Jul 30, 2017 10:55 am
I have an uncle in Port Orchard that has a 1969 CB 350 that he bought new. It hasn't been licensed since 79 and has been in an unheated garage its whole life. He offered it to me but I am so overloaded with projects I would rather not take it on. The big problems as I see it are the tank and carbs were never drained and the gas has turned into what looks like coffee grounds though the tank seems solid and the original paint looks great. Also the chrome is peeling pretty bad on the fenders. It is the type 1 engine and only has 8000 miles on it. He was real meticulous about maintaining it and I bet the engine is good. It is a very nice looking bike in the british racing green and white colors with the rubber tank pads. He is wanting $800 and I think it it is well worth that. I rode it some when I was a kid and always liked it alot. If no one here is interested I thought I might offer to post it on the Bellingham/ Mt. Vernon site. Let me know of any interest and I will help with contacting him, Doug
