    Well, my neighbour asked me if I wanted to buy a coupe of bikes off him. He is too old to ride and the price was right, so here we go again.

    1971 Honda SL350 - Not running, but complete
    1978 Kawasaki KM100 - Not Running and mostly complete

    Im keeping the Honda and doing a resto on it, and once the Kawi is running ill be selling it

    That SL looks like a lot of fun!
    I feel like I remember reading about you wanting to make more room in the garage... I see that's going well :D

    The 1972 Honda CL350 was my first bike, many moons ago. Swung too wide on a corner and hit a telephone pole, bending the forks. Hid it in the barn so my parents wouldn’t see it. Bought a new 1981 CB750 Custom a few years later.

    Nice bikes. I had a CB350K4 "a while" ago. Different frame and styling, same engine. Already in the early 1970s some bikes had a tendency to pitting wear on cams and followers. Be sure to clean the oil filter regularly. Had I the facilities to house several bikes there woukd be at least one two-stroker - most probably a Kawasaki or Yamaha street bike.
