Just let me know if you find something you just got to have.

FYI, I saw a 71 cb350 listed in Tucson, AZ http://www.vbike.us/index.php?page=showpro&spid=29

Maybe AZ200 can grab it for you.

Wow thanks again Kato, but I hope it never comes to that. So far the build is going well. The perfect bike is always only a couple hundred dollars away :P . If I do get the fenders and the rack, then I'll have really overspent. :cry: I have to get cash together for insurance. I don't have the cash for MBS. :?

The link is to a 250 chinabike? :?

The rack is about $50 now, and still days away from close, seems like what I bid on goes through the roof. :cry: You can buy a working Cb350 engine for what a nice luggage rack goes for. :evil:

katoranger 02-07-2008 10:56 AM

Wrong link. There was a cb350 for $50 on the Tucson craigslist.

Pile of parts.

oooooooooooooo 8O
Parts bikes(cb350) are about $600 here. :evil:

katoranger 02-07-2008 06:13 PM

It would only cost about $600 to ship it to you. :lol:

You need to look at the craiglist just across the border from you. Might find a good american deal.

:evil: :twisted: :evil:
Ever try to outbid 6 guys on ebay with dial up? :evil: :twisted: :evil:
I got the rear fender real nice for 5$. :o
8 bids in the last minute, and I lost the front fender. I would have saved on shipping but nooooooo. :cry:
I just dont have the cash to bid with confidence. :oops:

You Canadians should really put your fellow countrymen snowbirds to work. There seems like there should be lots of cubic meters worth of storage space in their RV's and trailers that they could bring Chinabikes and CB350 parts back with them in the spring...

katoranger 02-08-2008 09:03 AM

Good idea.

culcune for PREZ! :P
I don't like my dad, no one does, he's a knob, not a knoob. :?
After his 2nd heart attack he has wanted to mend old wounds, and he goes to Florida every year. I never even thought of it till you mentioned it Culcune.

I wish I knew other snow birds, but he's the only one that drives. Because of registration, I need to keep the frame and the part of the motorcase with the #'s, that's it. Sure I got the side covers for 99cents each, and the rear fender for 5$. The shipping charge is the bit that hurts. I think I got SBD. Shiny bike disease. :cry:

AZ200cc 02-08-2008 02:25 PM

I could mail the bike piece by piece :lol:

I had thought of this (utilizing snowbirds, not running for president) a couple of years ago, but this year, with the dollar to dollar valuation, you (Canadians) could really benefit with some of the products you have to pay top dollar for, such as Chinese bikes...or CB350 parts bikes!!

I GOT THE RACK!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: 8O :D 8O :lol: :roll: 8O :D :twisted: WOOOOOOooooooHHHOOOOOOOOooooo! :D

If anyone wants a bunch of radio controlled stuff dirt cheap, let me know. I need an new fender now :cry:

katoranger 02-11-2008 01:00 PM

Congrats. I added you to my ebay favorites list.

I am katoranger there too.

Is there a 12 step program for eBay?
I got the luggage rack, rear fender, and front fender(no pitting), and another set of air box covers(with 350 emblems). The crazy thing is, I'm not using the air boxes. I'm using cone filters and I rejetted. I only got the first set of covers so you can't see through the middle of the bike. Now they arn't good enough. I had to get the 1972 covers with emblems :oops: . All this since Monday.

I still want to get a new petcock and the high beam indicator that goes on the top of the headlight. It's like the cherry on top. They sell new tach's and speedos and yes they are so nice that I almost hit the by now button at $150 each/ The wife would kill me. It's gotta stop. I gotta remember that this is not a museum bike and never will be. But they keep offering great stuff Ebay! :twisted: It's not the price of the part, shipping is usually more. $5 rear fender and $29 shipping. :roll: More pics pg 8 of gallery. Almost have as many hits as frosty, but can't quite get there. :lol:

Hey you eBayers, when you're bidding on something you really want and you're down to 45 seconds, and you place a bid 1/3 higher than you know it will go. Does it give you a bit of a gambling bug, buzzzz? 8O

IronFist 03-11-2008 02:46 PM

I put up 3 before and after kinda pics in my album, page 8 of the gallery. 8O The airbox covers came out nice concidering I payed 12$ and just a NOS set of emblems that go on the covers go for well over $100. I wish I could say that I got rid of the pitting in the fender, but I had to buy another. The Rack fit perfect, and looks right on the bike. The bag I chose works well. What you see in the pic holds my tools, it's insulated like a cooler. The bag unzips and it turns into a packsack, easily fits a helmet and more with my tools in the cooler below. It also holds extra bungees so I can tie down the whole packsack to the luggage rack.

I need more gallery hits, my album is always 200 hits less than Frosty's :x Again thanks to Frostbite for suggesting nylon luggage. I think it has a correct look to it. :wink:
