So I am rebuilding a cb350 engine and am following the book step by step, just installed the chain tensioner and now my timing looks a bit off. This is wrong and I need to redo something don't I? Only problem is this doesnt look like enough to be off a tooth. Hopefully you can see the line in...

New to the forum, did a bit of searching buy didn't find the info I was looking for. Some background. Found a pair of 78 CM185Ts stored away in a hayloft and got one of the two running with ease, carb clean and she fired right up. The only issue is there is a very audible ticking sound. I went...

1973 Honda cl350. Took the engine apart for a new head gasket and rings. Engine is back in bike now, and timing is way off. I had all the marks lined up, then I installed cam tensioner, side covers, and put the engine in the bike. Now none of the marks are even close to lining up, the line on...

Hi hope everyone is doing well. I am rebuilding a 1970 cl350 and on disassembly I noticed that the right side exhaust rocker arm was all pitted. I ordered a replacement off of eBay 312 part #. Put it all together and back in the bike and now I can’t get the slop out of that rocker(about 15 thou...

Hey guys I recently acquired my Father-in-laws 1970 cb350 from his shed. My plans are to fully restore it to how he bought it in 1972. I have a confusing issue with cams/bore/rocker arms that I haven't found an answer for so far. He told me a couple interesting facts about his bike that has me...

Can't find a thread for this so hope it is new! Anyone know if there is a torque setting for the cam cover bolts. Brenden from CMC mentions 14 in his video but doesn't specify what system ( ft.lbs, kg.m etc). Just starting to do the rebuild on my CL360. Incidentally I found that the clutch...

Hi All, I've been lurking here for a long time, this is my first post. Long story short, I'm rebuilding a CB350 to race in Novice Production Lightweight at the Topeka AHRMA race in June. Personally I'm not a brilliant mechanic, nor do I have any special knowledge of motorcycles or engine...

There is some rust on the bottom my cam lobes (see images below). Should I replace (or refinish) the camshaft and cam followers?

I've posted this once before but as there was no response I've concluded that I'm either extremely uninteresting, this has been answered before (I cannot find it), or I just chose a poor time to post and it was buried under other posts. I have 2 questions: 1. What do the different numbers on...

1970 CB450: One of my Lock nuts has gone missing. I ordered a NOS nut, but it will be a week before it gets here. I'd like to put a temporary nut on for the time being. Any clue as to what size/pitch nut these are? Thanks!

I have a 73 Honda CB350G. The cam and rockers very pitted/chipped, whatever you want to call it. Has anyone had these welded and reground? If so who provides this service and how much am I looking at paying? Also what steps are involved in this process, just for my own curiosity? I already have...

Hello. I won a Honda cb500t on ebay. I thought i would be out bid. I wasn't. The motorcycle was not running. I disassembled the whole engine. My first mistake was i didn't check and remark the timing marks before i took it apart. Missed that little detail in the manual. I think i have found the...

I'm looking for cylinder walls/jugs for a CB450 in decent condition. I will be over-boring them to 71.5 mm, so if they aren't perfect on the inside, its fine. I do want all the fins intact and the exterior in decent condition. I'm also looking for an intake cam if anyone has one sitting...
