Chris.QCR Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 So after a bloody good mate letting me pay him off weekly ive finally got my hands on my 1969/70 Honda CB350!!! Its a real good original old girl. Gold/orange tank. All the chrome. Heaps of finned engine parts. Drum brake front and rear. Twin carb. 2 into 1 pipe. Sounds really good. goes pretty quick. Really stoked. Will work on photos. Until then here is an example of the simple summer classic i want make of it. Plans are for epic summer missions involving hammock tents and lake side fires and heaps of 70s classic motorcycles and good mates 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
