MARTIN TOKAR'S 1974 HONDA CB360G

In 1974, Honda had a grand scheme to succeed the highly admired CB350. This new design would produce a little less horsepower to ensure some additional reliability and easy riding. After a few short years, the CB360 faded off into the sunset in favor of the impending CB400.
DCC customer Martin Tokar has one of these seldom-seen machines and, chances are, you haven't seen one quite like his.

Rene-Yves Cote's 1972 Honda CB350

The beautiful thing about motorcycles is how it brings people together from all different walks of life, all corners of the Earth. Some have been riding and wrenching since they could walk, while others take on a newfound passion in the later stages of life. DCC customer Rene-Yves Cote finds himself somewhere in between and we find ourselves besotted at the sight of his '72 CB350.

Thomas Reiter's 1976 Honda CB550

Widely known as the "little brother" of the ever-legendary CB750, the Honda CB550 is considered by some to be one of the most balanced motorcycles that came out of Japan in the 1970s. At the time, Honda Motor Company was in need of a motorcycle that could fill the mid-capacity vacancy in their product line. The overall performance of the forerunning CB500 left the company and its fanbase with a lot to be desired. The CB750 was too powerful and bulky for the average rider, while the smaller CB350's and CB400F were too small and handling was not ideal at top speed.

Look no further than DCC Customer, Scott Wilkinson and his ridiculously cool CB650 Custom bobber...

Sean Hughe's 1971 CB350

He found the bike on Craigslist and his initial idea was to do a complete teardown; powder-coat everything, rebuild the engine, add a brat-style seat, etc. But, as he started to work on it, Sean soon realized that he loved the way the fuel tank aged and patinaed. "I didn't have the heart to sand it down and paint it," admits Hughes. "Some bikes want to be restored. Some bikes want to be cut up with seat hoops and mods. But, some just want to show their age so this became more of a resto-mod." And so it began...
