Honda CL350. Will it run after 25 years?

[@Bassman1999]

As usual...excellent. Great result getting it started, I love seeing these bikes progress from the very start.

Well done Rod, another one saved!

[@rodcurrieclassics8102]

Nice to get an easy initial win Paul after a couple of bikes presenting issues. Some way to go yet but stuff coming up relevant to you and your bike.

[@timchamberlain6094]

I've had a few of newbies asking what bike to buy. I always say Honda. Will be good to see it in it's former glory.

Gold seals were Dunlop's as I recall or as many called them Japlops.

[@rodcurrieclassics8102]

Sounds right . How we used to mock eh? I do remember the 1960s type Bridgestones weren't hugely well regarded but like everything else Japanese bikes just kept getting better when we were getting worse and worse.

@@rodcurrieclassics8102 I was never really involved in tyre sales although occasionally someone would buy a genuine Honda tyre. Also when Honda did the Phil Read/Honda Britain versions of the F2 sohc we had all the tyres and were selling them cheap in pairs. I think those were 'Japlops'
