If you search on EBay for SL350 and manual you will find service manuals ranging
from $15 to $60 for a 'buy it now'.  You probably have already looked.

So .. for something quick, dirty, and free go to the link below and scroll to
the bottom of the page and look for the 34.5 Mb PDF.

Don't criticize the quality of the scans since it's free and I'm not responsible
anyway.

Not me. you are ab it west and South of me (Greenwood, AR. Near Fort Smith) to
the tune of about 277miles/4hrs & 40minutes, according to Map Quest. Just my
luck.

But today I found myself a project 71/72 SL 350. Mostly there but will be
needing the right brake lever and mount, rear fender, gas tank lid, left
electrics, throttle assembly probably, and other bits as I go on.

Okay, I'm new to the group. My first bike in 1976 was a Honda SL 350.
I rode it about 6 months and bought a 1971 Honda 750. Should have kept both. But
today I found myself a project 71/72 SL 350. Mostly there but will be needing
the right brake lever and mount, rear fender, gas tank lid, left electrics,
throttle assembly probably, and other bits as I go on.

It shows only 7500 on the clock. The pipes I hope I can rebuild.
The front seems tweeked a bit or maybe not I haven't really checked it real
close but the handle bars do not aim the tire straight.:)

Any way, I hope y'all don't mind me hanging out!

Robert

PS I ride a ST4 Ducati now and it was feeling a bit lonely.

Yes, although I rebuilt one for a '75 XL350. Very similar except the right hand
switch only provides the on/off function with the H/L function moved over to the
left hand side.  The '74 XL350 used the very same control as the K1 and K2
SL350's with the OFF/L/H function on the right hand side. I haven't seen the
K0's switch.

I still have the pieces from the old one in a bag un-assembled and a NOS one
('75) that I traded for using a NOS switch from a '74 model. I can see that
there are two ball bearings and a small spring in the bag.   Looking at the
complete NOS one it appears that the spring goes into the hole at the top of the
plastic slider and forces one ball bearing, larger of the two, to sink into the
notches in the housing .. thus you get the detent as you slide the switch. It
appears the other ball bearing, the smaller of the two, is under the kill switch
where there is also a small spring inside the kill switch on the bottom side to
also provide the detent.

Hope this helps.

I have uploaded the photos of the mufflers, You can find them in the Photos
section under "Glenns 1970 SL 350", if anyone needs any more photos, let me
know.

I have mufflers for a 1970 Sl350 KO, they are currently on my bike.
I am offering them for sale.

Has anyone ever had the guts out of one of these?  The lever that turns the head
light on sits on a post on a box inside the switch housing.  The post is on a

So none of the parts listed below are available but anything else may be?  Side
panels perhaps?

I have a '71 SL 350 that I am parting out.  Parts off this bike should fit
'71-73 models.  I may also have a right side muffler for a '69-70 KO model.

The following parts are unavailable.

Right side Muffler  I do have one badly eaten one (outside heat shield is
rusted, baffles are fine).  I also have an intact left side muffler still on the
header.  It is in good shape.

Front brake handle

Gear shift lever

kick start lever

kick stand

air cleaners (someone has already asked about them but I do still have them)

spark plug boots have been removed

Thanks.  If you need anything let me know and we can see if I have it and what
kind of shape it's in.  I won't take personal checks and you'd be responsible
for shipping.

Hay all I have a 70 k0 with a busted spoke in the rear wheel, does anyone know
where to get replacements for these?  I would like to get her put away for the
winter but I need the part so i can put her back together.  Thanks for your
help, jc.

I have a right side and left side muffler, they are currently on my 1970 sl350.
I stripped one of the spark plugs, and I just don't have the money to get it
fixed. I can send you pictures, if you are still looking for the right side. It
has a dent in it, but it works well.
I'm only asking for $200.00, I feel that is reasonable, you would alao have to
pay for shipping, I live in Syracuse, NY.  My name is Glenn Gregor.  You can
email me at glenngregor@....  You may also call ne at 315-374-7536.

Hey Tom,
Thought you sold that to another member on here or was that someone else ?

Randy's source for the mufflers was Overlander as well, but if they have quit
producing them then I imagine he is already searching for another source so it's
worth checking with him.

Too bad I didn't go ahead and invest in a set when the exchange rate was 1 USD
to 1.5 AU earlier this year.  But I never could get the right muffler to break
loose from the right header and I wasn't going to cut if off since the pair
would have made a good Ebay posting.
