Pics look fine for me.

What type of exhaust is that?

CB350... F4 or K6? The F4 is extremely rare as a standard bike - just thought I'd point it out Very Happy. The K6 would be a good choice because the bottom end is a huge bomb-proof roller bearing, which is why the Classic guys use them for racing.

@crazy frog...I did 2 2to1 collectors so I could
Run dual exhaust. They are Norton commando style 
but I think they are Emgo or something similar. I only paid $150 for both tips...then had a fabricator out here weld up the collectors and build the pipes. Used the factory headers

Dai, I'm not as strong on the CB lingo as I could be, but insure I'm about to be handed some knowledge from you! It's a 73 CB350 twin...I've already torn her down to the frame which is getting powder coated as we speak. Here is a pic of her when I picked her up...only 4k miles! There was enough small areas of surface rust to discourage original restoration.

@Kafe, I'll try and get a side profile...I built it to sell and had her sold 1/2 through the process!

Sharp bike.  I like the paint, looks like a simulated toaster tank.

At Mossy they are like beautiful women...they all have little problems to fix, they're all a little different to ride, and they get easier to let go each time.  Wink
