My Mom used to have a CB 350 just like this. I was riding it around the yard when I was 11 years old. When I was 13 I was riding it all over just like I had a license. I rode that bike to School, and to work. I also rode around town in the evenings with my friends. My Mom sold it when I was 18. She was having a garage sale, and some guy asked about it. I had already gotten a Sportster, so I thought nothing of it. Now I realize it was the best bike I ever rode. It always ran, and took me everywhere I wanted to go. It never broke down, and always brought me home. I can not say the same, for any of the HD's, or British bikes I have owned since. I have been wanting one, for a long time now, and finely got it today. This boy I got it from was going to cafe it, and was doing some work to it. He had the carbs rebuilt, new O-ring chain, and sprockets, new tire, and tubes, all new cables, new AGM battery, and K&N pods. He gave up on it when he broke off an exhaust stud, and tried to remove it with an easy out. He broke the easy out off in the head, and thought it would need another head. I am going to put this bike in the basement, and hide it from Vintagerider, so he won't try to sell it like he did my CB 350 four. I am going to rebuild it next winter. Then I will put it on display in the living room.

I like vintage bikes because they take me away from the clutter of technology that I work with everyday and back to a simpler time of mechanical elegance and simplicity.. "ninadm"
