Glad to have you onboard! I am about 1/2 way to restoring an SL350 K0. Hope to be done by end of summer/early fall. These things do take a while, especially...
Welcome to the Group Bill. I am the moderator and started this group in order to get some pointers myself. I currently have a 1970 Gold SL350 that I'll be...
Hey Jon, Glad to find out when someone in this group is local, I live outside Mansfield & have been gathering parts for my K1 for about a year & will get to...
Hey Jerry, Glad to hear you are local, too. Like you, I actually started buying K0 parts almost two years before I purchased a bike. I made the mistake of...

... have if it hadn't of been for Pantera1973. He and I are also members of the hondatwins.com and got into talking about the SL350s, at which time he posted...
Bill, I started the group after having been on the aimoo XL250 list. Great lists there, but not for the SL350. Hopefully this list will grow...so far so good....
Hi Bill, Glad to see you made it over here! Great bunch of folks here too. This is actually where I found my 1971 SL. These folks are a great source of...
Hi I was reading that someone has a good trick for front shocks. When I had mine off one of them seemed to drop a little bit before it worked. I dont know...
The only thing that you should expect to wear out are the seals, if your not leaking oil out the seals then you can get by with a fork oil change. Use the...
Beau, Here is my 2 cents worth on your shock problem. 1) drain the existing shock fluid and look for any signs of sand / grit in the oil. If it exists you will...
Hi all from new zealand, my front shock,s are due for seal,s and a polish etc so can anyone tell me about the spring,s in side them?? are they under big load...
Tony, As long as the front wheel is off the ground, then theres no need for spring load, even if it is on the ground they may come above the top of the tube,...

I have a perplexing problem I'm trying to work through with my K2. The left exhaust muffler seem to be rotated just enough that the kickstand misses the rubber...
I don't have the mufflers on mine yet, but just a thought. Could it be the kickstand mount bent outwards, from sitting on the bike putting weight on the...
Hi douglas im a k2 owner but cannot help you as metal cancer killed my mufflers but ive tried to measure the end of my kick stand across to the orther frame...
Actually, that was my first suspicion and it is a contributing factor since the kickstand does have a lot of side to side play in it as can be seen in the two...
I have a spare XL350 muffler but nothing for the SL350. If I fork out $1k for the replicas sometime in the future then I will definitely be selling these ......
... I had the same problem. The problem is the hole on the mounting tab that the kickstand bolt goes thru becomes elongated and it causes the misalignment....
Howdy... New guy here... I Have had several Cb and CL 350's in the past, but I just picked up my first SL.... It is a complete basket case, but all the parts...
I looked at the bolt hole but it appears symmetrical to the eye. However, I just installed a NOS exhaust hanger I found and that made a difference. The exhaust...
Welcome to the board. There isn't a difference, Motosport is just a branding that Honda dropped at the beginning of the '74 models. Only the K0 SLs had...
