My first project - 1974 CB360 K0
Craizeehair:
To be fair, the foam is surprisingly good.
Craizeehair:
Late afternoon call to the insurance to add the CB360 to the CB750 policy and I took it round the block a couple of times, that seemed ok so I ventured slightly further afield, that wasn’t planned hence the no mirrors situation!
Once the bike had warmed up properly I found it didn’t want to pull hardly at all when I opened up the throttle, the more I twisted the grip the more it held back and slowed down. I limped it home and shut the door on it for now but overall I’m very happy it goes at all.
It does start from cold every time with no choke, so maybe that tells me something?
Nurse Julie:
She looks lovely. Does it have 2 horns fitted, or is that something else?. I know diddly squat about the 360.
Craizeehair:
It is two horns, one doesn’t work which I presume is the original? I just left it as it came, thinking I might get around to learning a bit more later.
Johnny4428:
Great job Craizee to get her back on the road! A bit of fettling to get it running right and you will be off. Looking at the bike with its patina a tank and side panel repaint and a seat cover you will be well on your way to have a nice classic. I take it that engine side covers would have been silver originally?
Ash is the Horn whisperer on here I believe. Can’t remember the process but involves a bit of “bump starting†to give it the message.
