What year is that? I had a 74 CB360 back in the day. Very cool

Both are sweet! Great job!

I thought all (CB360s mufflers) were up rising off road. That was the differance. A friend of mine had a 74 CL450 with low swooping mufflers at the same time I had my CB360. Maybe the side cover and mufflers have been change. I don't know. It's been a long time. Just a thought.

Wow! That is one sharp looking 650! Nice work.

at least when Honda made them new...

all of the CB mufflers were down low (road bike style)
and all of the CL mufflers were raised (off road style)

they also called the CL's by the name of scrambler
they did this back into the mid 60's with the scrablers having high pipes and the regular model having low pipes.

Here is a CB I sold a few months ago
it was a 1970 CB 175, but the pipes are low like all of the CB's
(my 650 has aftermarket pipes, but these on the 175 are the stock style)

Great work Brant. I just might have to get that 360 back from you. Just what I need, another toy.

That's looks great Brant!

Very cool, those older Jap bikes are really starting to be popular again. I'm seeing a lot of them being ressurected, and properly done like yours

Your 914 is so nice. I love your car. Especially with the many hours of holes you've put into it
