Adding a new honda to the Stable
With gas prices bending me over, hating my commute with my prelude every day, I decided to buy an old motorcycle. I have been looking for smaller CC bikes such as CB200's, cb350's, 550's, buell blasts, 250 ninja's, and so on. I have always liked the look of the older bikes, and even more so when they get cafe'd out. I have been checking craigslist religiously lately and stumbled upon a really nice condition CB350F. The cb350f was only made for a few years and is one of the smallest 4cylinder bike engines out there.
I checked it out today and decided I want it.  The bike has new tires, new front brakes, battery, few spare parts, clean original paint, decent chrome, clean seat, ect. I put a $100 down today and will be picking it up sometime next week. Should be a ton of fun, and it isn't fast enough for me to do dumb stuff on it. __________________

Nice. A motorcycle is a motorcycle in my eyes. You're going to love every minute of it.

Nice choice.
I have a CB900F Super Sport. The thing is a champ...Don't see many around either. The glory of old Hondas. The bike is fun. I rode one before I decided on my 900. And it's still enough power to do something stupid with...it just takes a little more effort than others. Enjoy, and be safe. |

my 500 Shadow has the get up and go that my new 250 has. Scary how far these bikes have come.
Shit, my old 750triple has the Ninjette 250 power - the 600 that my friend has is the 1987 equivalent of stuffing a rocket engine up your ass. __________________
