My buddy had a 750 F. I had never ridden before. He let me try his 750. It was too much bike for me. So I Ended up buying the 350F. What a bike just the right size for me. I lived in Calgary and did a lot of riding through the Canadian rockies. It was a great cruising bike. My buddy built a chrome sissy bar with a chrome maple leaf. It was the same green as yours with four chromed exhaust pipes. It looked fabulous. It handled the mountain highways with ease and it was a super smooth ride. Also was a great sounding bike. I only road for two years moved back to Toronto and never road again. What a great bike.
I own the same bike in a bit more original condition, but equally as presentable. They're awesome little run about bikes and they get tons of respect and attention when people see them. Mine, fortunately, still has the original rust free Honda stamped 4 into 4 headers and mufflers. Nothing beats the sound! Thanks for taking us along and I hope you still have the bike and are enjoying it! Cheers! Zip~
Very nice bike! My dad and I have an English bike called a Rickman Matisse interceptor series 2 from 1970. It's got a triumph 650 built crazy back then. We've had it since 76 and only has 3200 miles.
I ordered one when first announced. I chopped it and rode it all over the West about half the time 2up with camping/travel gear. About 2 years of mostly travel and 115k miles. I disassembled it because I thought it would need a rebuild. The motor and transmission were perfect not showing any wear. Sadly, I never reassembled it as I had many other bikes that were larger. It was a really great motorcycle.
BTW you can kick start it by hand.....literally by hand. During my travels, the battery died. We didn't have money for a new one but it started easily with a push. I cut the mufflers off and ran straight headers. The only work ever done to it other than cosmetically was syncing the carbs once, and oil changes.
I really enjoy seeing old stuff like this bike....I get to re live a bit of my teenage years ..remembering seeing bikes like this when they where brand new ...This one is in great shape ..I am sure you can find parts ...I would use some white lithium grease to lube any cables after cleaning them out with some carb cleaner or something similar
Heya Buddy....This is exactly like my 1973 CB350F except mine still retains the original factory exhaust. I love seeing these old Honda's still on the road. Cheers! Zip~
I literally had the exact same bike for a long time. Had 1600 miles on it when I got it in 2016. It would scream and lean corners like a modern bike. Loved it, still have an extra tank incase I get another.
Man that bike is like a time capsule..I had a 1973 350F and a 1975 550F back in the early 80s. They were both very reliable and fun to drive..raced the not so stock 550 many times..LOL Take care and enjoy the bike.
Yeah, I sure wouldn't mind having a 550 myself. The guy I bought this one from has a couple CB750's as well. He said he'd be willing to let one go. I'm definitely considering it.
Nice bike ... Sounds sweet ... Green is definitely a '70's color ... I have a '73 CB750 & a '70 CB350 ... I like them original, too. Thanks for sharing🇺🇸 😎 👍
What a great find, and it is in beautiful shape. That triple-tree break would be scary to see after a high speed run.. Worked at Honda shop three years in late 60's never seen that happen before.
@@RamblinAround I know this is 4 years late but that broken triple tree occurs when the pinch bolt is over - tightened. It's easy to do this. In my experience old Honda hardware and fittings are more fragile than other brands. Bolts, fasteners, clamps and brackets are lightweight and fragile, its easy to overtighten and break things. Lovely bike,
Jeff what a great bike ! Back in the day while in school I had a CB 160 that I bought new in 1966 . I then traded it for CB 72 305 Super Hawk . Rode it for a few years and then traded it for a CB350 . All of them were great bikes . If I remember correctly the 160 was a little less than $600 00 tax title out the door ! Man those were the days. LOL . As always take care my friend and ride safe .
Love this bike.....funny you did the same transition in bikes I did. I went from a Honda 50 minitrail straight into a Yamaha IT 175 2 stroke. It was quite the transition, I had to park next to a big piece of firewood on its end as a stool to get on it. I don't know what my dad was thinking nowadays but I wasn't complaining then lol.
My son actually made a similar leap as well. He went from a Kawasaki 90, straight to a KDX200 with a big bore kit. I guess I passed on the tradition :) I know one thing, I sure meet a lot of people that started out on a Honda 50. They must have sold a ton of those things.
Wow! That is an almost impossible find. Especially in that shape! I had one. I bought it used in 1978 or 79. Mine was a 1973 and the color was maroon. Mine had 4 into 4 pipes. Mine had been stored outside and wasn't nearly as nice as what you have found. Mine came with a couple of bent exhaust valves. Just a warning, you don't want to miss a shift with it. Needless to say, I did a lot of work on it. Then I got rid of it. I didn't realize at the time how valuable the bike would become or I would still have it. Honda didn't sell too many of those. They were really nice bikes and a pleasure to ride. Good luck with it! Sure is nice to see one in that kind of shape! Wow! Again, what a find!
Thanks William, I appreciate that. I'm sure you're right, missing a gear when you're already at 10,000 RPM can't be good. I'm glad you like it, thanks for taking a look!
Thank you for the video I am in the process of buying one locally, the seller still working on getting it ready for sale, needs some work. I used to own one back in the 70s in the exact Paint finish as yours 👍. I know bikes of this vintage is not really for everyday commuting but for collection and keepsake.
Just got one a couple of months ago out of the barn for 200.00 bucks with 1855 miles and it kicks over. Has not been on the road or cranked since 1980s. Cool biles
Cool Honda motor cycle, 350 sounds awsome and powerfull 😎 you My son Jimmi his Honda is a Magna 750 4 carbs fast 🏁, he is going to sell it, and buy a brand New one, thanks jeff and Jordan for this video i enjoy, and the burnout that Jordan did, from tom your friend now and always say hello to the rest of the gang 😊 ♥️ ☀️ 🐯 ✌️
I wouldn't let that bring me down man! You still have one of the best motorcycle 's built. Set up is sweet with that crash bar and highway pegs! I'm 65 years old and I'm giddy just looking at her. Name her yet?? Thanks for your time man, ride safe!
Yeah, I do feel very fortunate that my friend noticed the problem. I ordered a couple different triple trees and some new tires. I'll get it all sorted out soon.
The CBF cam as a 350F, a 550F, and the 750F. No 400F. I bought a green CB350F during the gas embargo. I rode it to work for about a year. I sold it back to the dealer that I bought it from, new for a $100 loss!
Love it had one back in 81 paid $100 new chain,exhaust and tires and drove it for 15 years it loves winding roads, sorry it broke but should be a easy fix
That's awesome, glad you had such good luck with yours. My CL450, was a similar story....I bought it for $100 years ago, because the guy said it quit running right. I pulled the plugs, found that one had the gap completely closed off ( someone must have dropped it, then installed it without knowing ) I threw some new plugs in it and it ran amazing. I can't wait to get it fixed and find some good roads to ride it on. I ordered a couple different triple trees and a set of new tires. I'll get it all sorted out soon. Thanks for watching!
If you can find the original exhausts get them. It never had dual exhausts, it had four of them. The sound from the 4 exhausts was better than any dual exhausts. The twins were sightly quicker but not faster. The 350 Four could pull 100mph with a solo rider, mine did. While if you sat straight up the max was about 90-95, hunkered down it would do an honest 100 mph timed via mile markers. Watch the head gasket and do check the valves, easy to do. The speedo cable can be removed. Stay away from the WD40, use a thin machine oil and flush it real good. Do that once in a while it will last forever. You scored. Great bike.
Three years since you made this video and to this day it's hard to see two CB350FOURs with the same exhaust setup. Yes the original 4into4 was basically paper thin but they were beautiful, in my opinion. I believe if someone could recreate those there would be a serious market for them. I'm picking up a barn find in fairly good condition in a week or so but the photo shows some butt ugly pipes!
I had a 550 four and I took it in trade after being used to a BMW. The Honda frame was just not too good when you compared it to a BMW. I was not too impressed with mine, it had to pull 6 grand to do 70MPH. It was top heavy and I didn't keep it too long. I rode Goldwings, which were impressive and still are.
@@Moonlight-hq3gii asked for what price he bought it... As you are comparing a classic bike to a newly released single cylinder... I think u know nothing about bikes
Nice! I have the SAME 1973 CB350F in Candy Baucus Green. I've got videos on my channel on Big Bill. Really a beautiful example. Mine still has the original impossible to find 4 into 4 Honda exhaust. I am the third owner and when I got mine, it had been properly stored for 14 years. It took about a month to get it back to being road worthy, but I bought it right. Check mine out if you're bored! Just click on my icon and it'll take you to my channel. Mine even has the exact same crash bar with forward pegs. Cheers! Zip~

I was very fortunate that he was paying attention, it really could have been bad. Thanks for taking a look my friend, I appreciate it!
I also have a 73 350 Four needs a little work but still good
I'm about to pick one up these up in a few days and super stoked! great video!
Pretty sharp Bud!! I had a 450four and a 750four!! The Four series was definitely the best Bikes Honda ever Made!! Good luck with it Bud!!☺
Thank you my friend. That's cool you had a couple...I'd still like to pick up a nice CB750, if I can find the right one.

I wish Honda made a modern version of this, with a round headlight.
Your wish did come true pal
That was the first vehicle I owned. 1973 was a long time ago.
Whatta score! congrats!
Thanks, I appreciate that!
This bike is just perfect. I love it and its one of my favorite one after GlldWing 1500 SE od 1996.

old is all time gold
yeah,new cb 350 got only 21 hp and 30nm torque
@@Moonlight-hq3gi yes
I had a CL350 and can definitely appreciate the allure of a CB350F. The twin was a lot of fun, but shook like a hurricane at cruising speeds
The Four definitely is a lot smoother.
Sweet, nice score

good find there bud!
Thanks Murray!
thanks for sharing boss, she's a beaut!!!

You were lucky the tree didn't break on both sides at once...wow..saved by the bell or either someone was watching over you. Take care

My first bike. My dad bought me one brand new in 1975.

why the fuck dont they make motorcycles like these anymore??!!! :( Guess I was born in the wrong era!
Nice bike u should be able to find those parts drive safe
Thanks Jim, the parts are on the way. I ordered a couple of new tires for it too, just to be safe.
Actually I had one in 1973 and my buddy had a cb350 twin, I thought he would beat me in a drag race but it was not the case, I won.
these had disc brakes in 73?
Yes, they had a front disc brake from the factory.
