Also I would like to see some pics of different exhaust setups, like Super Trapp, DG or anything else.

Tapper's skidplate is awesome, Oldtime3wheeler got a couple for us and its just beefy. I cant imagine what you'd have to hit to do damage, but when I hit it Ill let you know!
Always been a fan of wire loom on the brake line. I used to have blue on mine to, but changed it to black. I have some on both my 350's since they have braided lines.

Here is the exhast I put on the one I just finished a few days ago.
The sound is very loud, I like the RMC better, but the price of $219 all chrom was to good to pass up.
I rode mine a few days ago without the heat shield and almost burned the crap out of my leg.
Here is a link to a thread I started a while ago on the skid plate

Change your fork fluid!! Clean them out good! Put whatever weight you decide back in after a little research. prolly 20 or 30 by the sounds of your preference. I'm a big guy,and I bleed mine out EVERY ride! R's,X's of all sizes. You can get really fancy with a fork kit from back in the day,I think their still available, Would have to look. If your chain doesn't want to tighten easily w a nice punch. DO NOT force it!! You will break your carrier,they seize up on the brake side where the brakemount rides. Being it has been all apart,,,,it SHOULD be all free?? If not get her apart,clean,and grease,and you'll be adjusting your chain w your fingers! Nice find. Although they're never done exactly to the other persons taste,,,someones put a LOT of labor in it for you, The way to buy em,especially to ride!
having a 86 motor is good one major improvment is the oil pump works when the motor is leaning to the side the 85 350 couldnt get any oil to the head when your riding on 2 wheels im trying to find out what 86 parts i need to fix that
Cleaned the carb & put the tank back on filled it with 100 octane (ethenol free) this morning, started on 2nd kick & ran great! I went out riding today for about 3 hours and I had a freakin blast! I love this thing! It feels alot different than my Big Red that im use to riding, I kept forgetting it actually had breaks! The Cobra exhaust has got to go, so if anyone has a 350x full exhaust for sale please let me know< Thanks.

Oh yeah I also checked all the bolts and prob. about 95% of all the bolts were loose. 2 of the engine mount bolts werent even there, luckly I had some laying around. Previous owner had everything powdercoated & he must have just threw it back together.

Woe nelly....100 octane fuel??? What compresion piston are you running??
In the one picture you took of your air filter, it doesn't look like it's oiled?? Then again, maybe it's me. Great looking 350x you got there. If your looking for another exhaust alternative, here's what I did: I used my cobra header and actually hacked off my cobra silencer. I then took a White Bros E-series silencer and slipped it over the Cobra mid pipe. It looks and sounds better then any 350 I have ever heard.
