'68 Honda CL350 Project basically complete

This is a project I picked up last May. It was the first bike I ever legally rode on the street at 15 1/2 yr. old. It sure seemed bigger and faster back in '71. This bike is a 1968 Honda CL350K0. I even did a lot of lane splitting riding it to Zuma and Malibu Beach.

There are still a couple of things left to do but basically, here is the completed bike. I know I'm missing a screw on the heat shield and the turn signal needs to be adjusted. The front brakes are still not very good and I need new spokes and the hubs restored. I'm also still looking for the left side HONDA badge if you know where I can find a nice one.

The tank was ruined during transport when the T-6 aircraft frame I was hauling shifted. The new tank, headlight shell and headlight ears were done with Duplicolor rattle can in my driveway.

Remember, the engine was never removed so the cases and frame need some attention as well. Maybe next winter....
