Originally posted by blefevre View PostMotorcycle time. Anyone have any experience/suggestions. I am looking for a 70's bike in the 350-500cc range that I can ride this summer then turn into a track/mountain toy over the winter. Currently looking for Honda CB350/450 and Yamaha RD350 2 stroke. I'm still learning a bunch so if you have knowledge in cheap bikes that have a good aftermarket let me know!
I currently ride a shadow aero 750 and it's a great bike, but its a cruiser and not a mid-bike like the old ones you're looking at. It has plenty of power, it just needs a better highway gear. Also be sure to jet your carbs for the altitude as it makes a 100% difference in how the bike performs.
Another great bike is the suzuki t500 from that era. Look it up, they are great. I've ridden the honda cb750 and the suzuki t500 and they are nearly identical for ride quality/handling but the lower powered suzuki is a bit slower, albiet also cheaper and it may have a better parts market since they made a bazillion of them....

I'm selling a 73 cl350, sent you a pm. This is my baby, but it's time for a liter bike or turbo.
