With the stinger tail out of the way, I could finally start moving on to some other things on the bike. In this round I was able to make the electronic components tray. After shaping the box, I then w...

Each time I went back out to the shop and looked at it, I felt like I could do a better job than I did. I wasn't 100% satisfied with the first "stinger" tail I did so I thought I'd give it another go....

Found some time today to wrap up the "stinger" tail hoop for the CB350f. Very slowly, I would heat up a portion of each side of it and bend it slightly. Then, little by little, I was able to get the s...

Before we even started seeing each other, my wife had a bike of her own. She bought a 1972 Honda CB350four from a local guy for $400. Needed some work, (and still does) but it's complete. I've bought ...
