350/4 Arizona Resto

Bullit:
Hi guys I'm new to the forum and thought I'd share my bike with you all. Just been imported from Arizona and am looking forward to the tear down so I can start building it back up. It won't be totally standard it will have a few tweeks here and there.
I do have a few questions I need answering which I'll post up later but for now here she is(hopefully)


JamesH:
Hi Bullit - welcome to the forum. I think there are two other forum members who are currently restoring 350f's - RoyHall and TinyTim. I think Roy has pretty much completed his and Tim is mid-way through. I'm sure they'll chime in and say hello. Best of luck with the bike. James.

Tiny Tim:
Hi Bullit.
Good luck with the 350, decent parts can take time to find but they are out there.
Have a look in Italy, Germany and France. Also check out the two links I posted on the forum for new and used spares.
Cheers
Tim

royhall:
Hi Bullit and welcome to the forum. You certainly like a challenge. Believe it or not your bike is actually green (candy Bacchus Olive) the sun fades that colour to its blue base coat. If you need any help just ask. Check out my rebuild thread "CB350F rebuild by royhall" and TinyTim is also doing a rebuild thread. You may find them useful. Good luck.

Bullit:
Thanks for the welcomes. This will hopefully be less of a challenge than my last project. RGV in boxes, at least this time I know where all the parts came from.

The first port of call will be to fire it up briefly to make sure there are no nasty noises from the motor before pulling the bike to pieces.
I have a few styling/modifications in mind but will ultimately be letting it evolve as it goes back together.

Couple of questions as I didn't do as much research as I normally do as I didn't want to let it slip through my fingers.
What grade of oil?
What spark plugs?
Should there be an ignition switch? (I can't find one)
Will it need lead replacement in the fuel?
