me its the money, everyone and their grandmother is wanting 3k for an old cb 350 or kx 400 in Colorado, they ALL know what you want to do to it.

im having the same experience trying to find an XS650 that's not $3k.


looks good sac.  I love how they 'hid' the wiring.

I sold my XS650 for $950 a year ago.  Was a barn find, over $1k spent making it road worthy, another $500 in cosmetics would have been choice.  Immediately regretted selling and have been trying to find one since.  NOPE.  Good luck finding one that isn't a full restoration or some hacked-up piece of shit bobber.

In the end it is always cheaper to hold on to them

than to buy another....

Subscribed - I can't see the pics at work (overanxious firewall here), so I can't wait to check this out.  I love CB's - the 350's are amazing, I have a 550 in the planning stages too.

its partially tubular. The down tubes are but not the upper rail (pressed and spot welded sheet metal) and the tube ends are mated together with sheet metal. I am taking mine to a welder to get all the spot welded seams re-welded (one weld bead across).

You might want to leave the engine mounted during the re-weld
