1973 Honda CB350 Four, "Turning it up to Eleven"....no music, just the pure sound of the engine. I went for a little ride this evening, so I decided to film it. I normally shift at 10K RPM, but I got a little carried away. It's not super fast, but it's a fun little bike to rip around on. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
My first bike in 1980, drove it up and down I-4 thru Downtown Orlando. Sack of fried potato wedges between my legs. High as hell on weed...great times!!! I miss those days.
Try that on i-4 now traffic will run you over within seconds. I live in Tampa now would love to have a bike it's just too damn dangerous
@@bogie1971 "...just too damn dangerous..." Exactly right. I quit riding several years ago after 40+ years of it just because of this. Way too many idiots on the road being distracted by their smartphones, nav systems, In-dash LCD TV sets. Law here says hands-free phones only while driving but I see people ignore & violate that law every single day. Sad really.....
@@darrellhagan6124oh , what bikes did you own and which ones you still have ?
@@dhanushk7597 Mostly Honda but others too - Started out in 1976 as a kid with a Honda CT90 (Trail 90). Went on to a Honda CL125 street bike a couple of years later. Next a 160 Scrambler. Then a couple of 175s. Then a Harley sportster 883. Then a 1976?? Honda CL360. Next a Yamaha Virago, Then a Yamaha 750 Triple (Never got on well with that one). Then a 1981 Honda GL500 Silverwing Interstate(Rode that one for a long time in the 1990s as my only transportation).
There are many more in between as well but Most recently 2 bikes - A 1998 Honda PC800 Pacific Coast (My fav of all), and a 1983 Honda GL650 Silverwing.
Sold all bikes about 5-6 years ago except for my Schwinn 21-speed.
I baught a red one new in 1973. It has been across the US and up mt. Evans in Colorado in 1976. It traveled in 114 degree heat in Kansas doing 80&90 mph all day long. I still have it today and it still runs. Smooth running motorcycle....
In these times of covid lockdown all over the globe, this is essential service for us motorheads. Thank you so much.
It's nice being an armed citizen and not getting "locked down" lol.
Stunning bike, glorious sound. Thanks for letting us share the experience :)
I'm glad you like it, thank you for watching!
Thank you for a video clip with no stupid music overriding the sounds of the exhaust, which I always want to hear. I had one of these bikes and loved it.
U meet the nicest people on a Honda!!!
I bet yamaha would have sold more bikes with that slogan, pun intended!
Saw this on an ooold poster when I was a kid, repeated it my whole life here and there. They had good marketing.
@@ImOlDrippy yes that is exactly what I was thinking about!! Growing up was Honda shop down the road and I would ride my bicycle there and slobber over the new motorcycles, and take home brochures, N I remember that slogan!!
That's a beauty. 💕.
One could actually say the title of this video is a little mis-leading. I heard a quartet of little cylinders hitting the high notes! Well done!
Oh, the speedo doesn't work. That explains the odd gauge in the middle. It's a phone.
Truly a wonderful build, I simply can't get enough of the sound.
Thanks for the video, it made me feel as if I was riding it. Almost a VR feeling. That was my dad's bike. He bought the very first CB350 Four in Guatemala, and there weren't many of them around either. I was just a little kid when he purchased it, exact same color as yours. He changed the exhaust with a pair of Cherry Bomb exhausts, it amplified that sound, it was sick!. My brother is 10 years older than me, so he got to ride it through his teenage years, once I got there, the bike was out of commission in our garage. My dad sold it before I got a chance to enjoy it. I was able to take it out one time and took a girl out for a short spin. Good times.....
Glad you liked the video, thank you for watching!
That little motor rips dude!
It's a fun little bike. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!

I just bought this actual bike over the weekend! So cool to find it here. Nice to hear the story on the upper triple tree clamp as well. Great survivor bike that will continue to be preserved. 👍👌
It's a great bike, I miss it already. Hope you have a lot of great years with it. There are quite a few videos of it on my channel if you search around.
My dad's first bike he bought around 1978, then gave to me in early 80s, when he bought a bimmer rs650. Everyone commented on the sound of the engine.
Just picked up a 1974 finally!!
That's cool man, hope you enjoy it!
The four which idle sounds almost as erratic as a twin 2-stroke! I like it!
Finally got the chance to start working on one I picked up from an old neighbour for 600$ only had 4k miles and has been sitting in his garage since the late eighties. Hoping to get it running by the ass end of the summer
Just bought one , same color, left 25 years in a garage.. Next week I think I can take a ride
I didn't notice the wind a bit. Thanks for the ride! It sure brings back a lot of memories from 40 years ago when I had mine. I still ride but there's just something about that bike. Good Luck with it. It sure is a nice piece! As you know, not many people know that model ever existed. I doubt there will ever be another 350 four made but you never know.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it! They really are fun little bikes. That's cool that you had one.
@@RamblinAround
Fun and rare! Especially in a condition such as yours.
There’s a rumor that Kawasaki will be producing a 250 cc Four cylinder in the Eliminator model soon
@@billbaumiester6764 Kawasaki recently produced a ZX25 that never hit the market in the USA and probably never will. I would love to see a small displacement in line four come here but I don't think it will ever happen.
My first road bike ever. Same color too boy I wish I had it today!
What I gorgeous bike, I had a 1982 Honda CB400 for many years- glorious memories!!!
Like a traffic rider game🤣
Amazing! I didn't even know something like this existed. When I wanted a small-displacement used motorcycle in the mid 1990's, everything on the market were singles.
Came here for the sound, left with eargasm
My first bike after driving licence. I should never have sold it 😭
Nice bike. Lucky bustard You are. What a sound! Of a Honda.
Thanks, I'm glad you like it!
Thabks for letting me live vicariously through this video!
Obligements for stirrin' up them 47 short year ago memory chips. It's the spit & image of the back road trips i'd take on the weekends off from duty @ Ft, Btagg N.C..
Had the '72 CB350 as a 1st bike. Between my weight, combat equipment, radio, main, & reserve parachutes... it's 375 lbs dry weight.... bout matched what went out the door of the aircraft or chopper each jump; day or night. Many a Myrtle Beach trip with just an air mattress, poncho, & poncho liner; made for thrifty chance for some fine beer drinkin' weekends. Any given bridge abutment made for a fine roof & often kept the bike insight of it's chained location @ the road column below.
Enjoy your RamblinAround works & lack of music. Blessin's Be; upon all you're endeavors.

It would be cool to know what towns we are cruising in? Awesome vids by the way
The sound and video was really good ...I like the sound of the Honda engines as they rev up ..Lots of torque in those old engines
Thanks Jim, I appreciate you watching!
"Lots of torque in those old engines"
I need to speak up about that statement. In 1985 I owned and drove an early 550 Honda 4-cylinder bike. My co-worker had a 350 like in this well made video. As our weights matched the bike's performance levels, we shared like experiences in riding these machines. At low rpms they both had a hard time getting out of their own way! Mine started coming on the pipe at around 6000 rpms, and had serious thrust at 9000. Warren's bike shared similar figures. When I rode his bike, with it's 50 cent piece size pistons, I thought I would need to pedal when I tried to get going! That, or slip the clutch excessively...
The engine torque subject is easily misunderstood. The basic rules are:
Horsepower gets the job done. Period!
Torque PLUS movement, linear or rotational, equals horsepower... End.
Thus, a small engine, with an 11,000 rpm redline, has a modest, at best, amount of torque, but, with lots of speed, can build respectable power.
Glad you are an Expert...I know engines and know what torque and horsepower means..@@jimstepan3038
@@not2fast4u2c Yeah but he's right. They had minimal torque. 0-60 an old H/D would pull But once that online gets wound up It's buh bye
@@not2fast4u2c fart noise
cool bike. every time you take an old bike like that and go into the red line you take a little life off of the engine. It's your bike but if I had a beautiful classic like that I would keep it out of the red line. When I was a teen back in 72 this was my first dream bike. In 72 I had a little Yamaha 100 Enduro. Later got the 125 Enduro. Later the Suzuki 250 twin two stroke street bike. Much later the Yamaha v star 650. Then a 1981 Honda 400 twin. Then a Kawasaki 1500 vulcan. Finally a Honda VTX 1300 .... which I still have. Hondas are the best. I still wish I had one of those 73 350 fours. They are still to this day super super cool.
That's a beautiful bike. It doesn't even sound like it's in the power band until it's over 7 grand. It just lopes along easy at 6 grand. I've got one in the back yard with a rolling frame and 3 boxes of parts, new tires and 4 carb kits ready to go when I get the time. Same color as that one, too. I'm very much looking forward to putting it together. Thanks for posting this and giving us that great 4 cylinder CB350 sound.
Thanks, I appreciate that. They really are great little bikes. They are not incredibly powerful, but they rev very easily and I love the sound. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it. Good luck with yours!
My first bike in 1975. I had a red one.. put the criss cross hooker 4 into 2 header on it and individual air filters from uni.. in top gear, your rpm’s matched the mph. . Loved that bike
Me and my dad are going to restore one of these
It's a fun bike, I really love how they sound.
I love this model - but for gosh sake take the ugly crash bars off. They ruin the look and add 15 lbs.
I love my 350 twin but damn this makes all the right music
I have had a few twins too and they run great. In fact, we have an SL350 sitting in the living room :) I do love the sound of the four though. It makes you feel like you're going a lot faster than you are. The twins are actually slightly quicker.
@@RamblinAround i ride a m109r thats been warmed over ,and when it starts sounding good I'm in trouble, so a little machine thats sounds awesome is perfect.
RAW! Great visceral video, lets ride
Thanks for watching Sam, I appreciate it!
Beautiful bike and a fantastic sound track
Thank you, I appreciate you checking it out!
Gorgeous
Where's the Time Machine? I want to go back and get mine, that I stupidly sold.
Amazing 😻😻
Check the 2022 CB350 (single cylinder) also, Beautiful machine + a reliable Work Horse 🔥🔥‼️‼️
Had a 74 550 sounded very similar recently got a 74 cl200 for 100$ lol brings back memories
OMG!
LOVE!
J.C.
What camera and exhaust? this is beautiful
Very nice!! I just finished restoring mine and made a ride video, but you wind it out nicely for sure! Where you at? I'm from Indiana and it looks similar to my area. Good job!
I'm in Illinois, so definitely very similar surroundings I'm sure. Thanks for watching, good luck with yours!
オリジナルを保っていますね。🎉
スピードメーターが壊れている？
It sounds real nice, but I’m not sure if this is a sound of a working 4 banger? Is it the pipe’s doing?
I used to always beat one of these with a cb360t.
Yep, the twins are actually a little faster. They make more torque.
I have a 350f as well. Love that bike to death! I shall get more of mine on video!
Hi can I ask what camera and mic setup you are using? It sounds great in the video. Very little wind noise. Beautiful motorcycle!
I'm using GoPro7's for the video, but the sound is being recorded by my sony AX33 camcorder and a Rode microphone with a wind protector. I used a long cord from the camera and attached the mic near the exhaust. Here is a link to the mic: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1183909-REG/rode_videomicro_compact_on_camera.html/?ap=y&smp=y&lsft=BI%3A514&gclid=CjwKCAjw7LX0BRBiEiwA__gNwzUCcNwSH2Azg4jtN6UWg-ZrlUcOdydC4Xg6_VNKW-DN7MgoRpe83RoCVfAQAvD_BwE
Awesome!
I want that bike so much 😃. But in the uk it will be forever out of my price range 😩. Great vid and of course awesome sounds 👍👍👍🇬🇧
I'm glad you like it, thank you for watching!
Hi Old Dirt Bikes ..... just to let you know that I have this exact bike and I'm in the UK (Worcester). Mine is the 1974 CB350F1 manufactured in May of that year. It is totally untouched and complete with the four exhausts. It currently has 3,993 miles on it and for those who can tell, its genuine. Sadly due to arthritis in my hands its probably not very cleaver for me to continue riding so I'm looking for a new home for the Honda ...... let me know if your interested?
@@steveparlow7322 hi 👋,so thoughtful of you to let me know and sad you wont be riding any more . I know the feeling i have back injuries and there are days i just cant ride . I really love the cb’s but i have so many projects in my workshop and i know the value of these old classics, ive just started a new resto project i have a xr collection. But i would be interested to know what you want for it but really its the wrong time for me to be buying more motorcycles. If you have time check out the channel to see my work . Thanks again for the msg 😀
Needs to be shifted up or a smaller sprocket in back!
Lovely sound and fantastic Bike!
Thanks for taking a look, I appreciate it!
I want one of these so bad, I really wished they had a 6 Speed Transmission,like the Honda offered for some of their 70's 360cc motorcycles.
I would go for the 400 Four. They have a little more power and they added the extra gear to the trans.
youve got a true beauty, she sounds remarkable
Thank you, I appreciate you taking a look!
Perfection at its finest
I want to post a video of mine now! This sounds so nice!!
Thanks, they really are great bikes!
Great video! Looking to get my hands on this as a first bike (restored). Any recommendations from anyone on the possibility and any connects in the US?
Wij genoten van het ritje! Mooie Honda.
Reminded me of my 1976 year when i owned one silver color (Singapore)
Haha it’s so loud xD love it
Thanks for watching!
Listen to that kitten purr....
Why are u using the clutch??!?!!? just bang those gears!!!!
what is scream for porn,same thing for motorcyclists .awesome sound , especially carb. vacuum noise between shifts..
Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!
😱😱😱👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍
Please drop by my place with your nice bike . Troy up from the 4-0 with the cannon in the yard . I like to ride my bike with you . Thanks Jeff
I remember the early Honda 4 cylinder bikes. I had a Triumph Bonneville back then but the sound of a 4 cylinder Honda was much more impressive when tapping the throttle. So responsive!
Had one in NZ in the mid 70s. Great wee ride.
Not the fastest by any mean, but it is fun to ride. They sound amazing! Thanks for watching!
Enjoyed the ride! You ever get the lagging speedo sorted out? I had that on my CB750, it was a bad speedo cable.
Our next door neighbor had one of these when I was in the 8th grade. It was so cool.. Still is. Can't imagine how small those pistons are
That is so nice!
That bike is sweet !!!!
Thanks, glad you like it. I've only had this one a short while...maybe a month or two.
What was that town you were riding through ??? Its really refreshing to see the landscape there . When I go to Mt Vernon I always think look at all of this beautiful land .Deer everywhere ,farms. Then I think about East St Louis and downtown St Louis . Why would anyone live there ??? Its more dangerous than iraq . You really have to watch the highways this time of year . The deer are running hard
We do have a ton of deer running around here, that's for sure. We're about 25 - 30 minutes from the JB bridge.
Anyone know where to get a lower crash bar like this bike?
Sorry, I can't help you with that. It was on the bike when I bought it.
The cb350 twin was quicker that the 4 pot
Yep, that is correct, I've had both. I do like the sound of the four better though, and it's smoother.
Very well done vid. Excellent sound.
Thank you for watching!
Exhaust?
What was your top cruising speed on the bike?
I know where this is at . It is over in Marine IL . I live close to there in Troy IL . Nice bike . I think I have seen it once or twice . Thumbs up .
Wow it sounds amazing
Thanks, glad you like it!
First
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for uploading the video. Was good to watch, really love the older bikes especially Honda's. Great place you got to ride around there.
❤love it
i had one in high school ..........absolute perfection
bella moto, bel sound, orribile paragambe
Dude
That bike sounds great
what paint code is that? that is absolutely fucking gorgeous
The factory called it Candy Bacchus Olive.
1:13 sweet mother of God
Im looking for one of those
What App is that?
Looks and sounds great!
Great note.
thanks for the tour . I am working hard to get all vehicles ready for winter . I cant get the work trucks in the garage ,they are too tall . So I have to do maintenance when its dry out . Supposed to be dry around trick or treat time ,happy for the kids
Yeah, I think it's supposed to be dry, but cloudy today.
@@RamblinAround How far are you from the JB bridge ???
Kool bike but ant no way I wood treat her so rough!! Revving her to hard that's a 40 year old bike !! Good looking bike to runs great$!
Sounds so amazing.
Glad you like it, thanks for taking a look!
What a ripper.
