I tried posting links cause I couldn't get them small enough.

Its a 73 with 4500 miles. It had been sleeping in a garage for 12 years before I got it. I scored some OEM 4into4 exhaust for it on ebay, should make it look pretty sharp.

Very nice. I always do doubletakes when I see the old 500 and 750 hondas on the road. Classic.

Nice bike VABCH350X. My first bike was a 1974 (i think) CB 550. I pulled mine out of a guys backyard after it had sunk into the ground up to the spokes! After getting it home I found out it was frozen (no real suprize there) so I ended up parting it out. Did you have to do anything to the bike when you got it or just clean it up and go?

I got the bike last fall, and it had been sleeping in a garage for 12 years or so. It was in pretty nice, original shape, but had some chopper bars on it and a bunch of tacky looking 70s accessories. The carbs were all seized, so I gave them to my dad's friend to put in the ultra sonic cleaner at the honda dealership. With a little persuasion and minor wiring repair, she fired right up. I have a set of OEM 4into4 exhaust for it that I need to install, should make it look pretty sharp. I just picked up a 73 CB350F for the little woman, pics of it to come.

Sounds like you got a good deal. When you get pics. of the 350 could you send me one of the seat bottem and how it mounts? I am going to need a seat for the 350 twin I am working on and would like to know if one from a four would work.
