Title: Belgian/Irish novice.
Post by: johndregg on January 27, 2011, 07:57:47 AM

I was sent here from the u.s. board
John here, and Irishman living in Ghent belgium.
I have kind of inherited a basket case of a CB 350 four from a friend, its got a 400 four motor in it with burned out valves and is generally in "save me now before its too late" condition. This is my first inline four as i'm actually a Lambretta scooter nut who normally enjoys tuning small wheeled two stroke singles so i'm here to get as much help with my new project as possible.
Hope you will all be patient with me? ;D

Here are two photos of my new money pit, i'm hoping to finish it off with a period full fairing and some trick rearsets and clip ons, but first.......get it running!
