Hi,
I'm a Brit living in Phoenix. I fix up and ride old vintage bikes from the 70's. My first bike was a Kawi S1 250. I now own a Kawi triple, a Cl175 and just picked up a nice unrestored Cb350 K1 that I plan to leave alone and ride it. Looking forward to meeting members of the forum, Thanks, Harry

Dusky, dusty... no matter, it's a nice survivor that looks quite original in many ways, not the least of which is the old-school Yuasa battery and what appear to be unmolested factory battery connections. Nice find!

Thanks for the comments
10.8k miles

The joyous moments I live for.. ( all in 1 week no less). Being first to answer the ad/finding a complete tool kit/ hearing the bike come to life

here's the latest
I did a thorough clean.
rebuilt carbs/petcock
new battery
new plugs and cleaned points
good compression (160/162)
It started right up
Good oil flow to cam
Rode it around the block a few times
Ordered tires/seat/chain etc

I like the patina so I'll leave it alone
Hopefully I should be able to take it to bike night in a few weeks

BTW Anyone know how to install the side cover center chrome/rubber grommet? its a mystery to me

thanks
