Hi guys, I'm new to this.
So I decided I needed some sort of a project in my spare time other than construction, so bought a Honda cb350F frame on a whim, and am planning to build it from scratch. Problem is I've never build a bike before, so will need some pointers from those who are willing to share their wisdom. Might sound crazy, but I'll get there.
So I'll load the pic of the frame, and fire away with your opinions of what to do next, or first, or any nuggets of wisdom you may have.
Cheers

good frame for a cafe or brat/bobber build.
For good info on the old bikes look at the following sites:
http://www.dotheton.com
http://www.hondatwins.net

I've got a bit of a build going on at http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=37561.0
Mines a CB400 Twin, frame is similar but yours has a flatter rear seat area which is perfect for a decent cafe build ;)
