Not don't by Honda. It may have a hillside Honda head on it but its pretty much impossible to tell what was done to it with his pictures. It would be nice to see the head that was used.

Never seen a scoop for the rad like that before either, and the "x" in the Vin as a recall gave you a 8 or 9 inch rear wheels too...?? lol. I know it was not part of the recall but if they did upgrade to Liguid cooling they wouldn't have reduced the bore size(I would think). Cost Honda enough, without adding the cost of liquid cooling on the recall's. He make's it sound legit though...

5k... Good luck, I payed $2700 for mine 18 years ago. But as the only "Liquid Cooled by Honda" FL350 it may be collectable...right.... :-)

I didn't see any claims to the suspension modifications so he must have removed the lie from the original post! LOL

I sent an email asking who from the factory did the modifications. How much you want to bet I don't get an answer?

I have an old DG gold liquid cooled head from back in the day, doubt I will use it now that better ones are out there. I pulled the motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) for a rebuild and was playing with a CR450r cylinder back then, never finished as life got in the way. Did I say life? Meant wife!! Lol. We started our family last time I drove it, and now he is turning 18... Time flies.

motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) was pulled, dismantled, and I bought everything to rebuild it except the piston 18years ago. My first ride i snapped an aftermarket u-joint, seem to remember that was $1200 for two new axles in Canada back then. 2nd ride I broke my secondary... Had to have comet build me one back then, $600!! On eBay now for $219 everyday. 3rd ride I had carb problems and while waiting for a new carb I decided to pull the motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )). Found my skirts badly cracked, on stock bore(recall bore size). So I started asking shops here to bore/hone it and no one would touch it because it was an Oddy motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) and was just gonna seize no matter what they did. World was different then, but without today's Internet, life was a lot more isolated up here. Shipping a motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) to California was financially impossible and the risk of it getting "lost" in shipping I couldn't bear. So I parked it.... It was killing me financially at the time and a new baby sealed the deal. But I loved it enough to keep it, and my son's first and last quad was a KFX50(LT50 Suzuki), I remember the day I got the $400 tuned pipe for it... Was about 5mph stock but the over rev with that pipe was crazy and got that little single speed up to 15-20mph!! I was proud as hell but as soon as the motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) would get on the pipe my son would lift off the throttle, every time, pissed me right off and he never has had any interest in anything cool(like all his friends today). My Oddy left a bad taste in my mouth back then, so I jumped on the four stroke bandwagon and my wife and I both ride KFX700's, mine has dual exhaust, only way I can tell them apart. So either I have given it enough time to forget the troubles I had with my Oddy, or the world being what it is now, I feel confident the resources are available(Internet/Pilotodyssey.com etc) to revive an old love. I no longer feel isolated...lol.
