Motorcycle Carburetor Parts for Honda CB350

Your CB350 develops wear and tear over time causing certain parts to underperform or not perform at all, which leads to headaches. If you are experiencing reduced engine performance, backfiring, black smoke emitting from the exhaust pipe, overheating, or difficulty starting your Honda CB350, then your fuel/air mixture ratio might either be running too lean or too rich. Choose the necessary part for motorcycle, and you can be on the road again.

How is this product constructed?

Four main parts make up this product on your Honda CB350:

  • The Venturi pipe connects to the air intake and is a straight piece of metal pipe with an indented center to accelerate incoming airflow and to create a vacuum to force fuel out of the float chamber. The fuel/air mixture is then sent down to the motor.
  • The throttle valve controls how much airflow can pass through the Venturi pipe and onward into the cylinders of the bike. It is controlled by the accelerator on the front handlebars.
  • The float system is a reservoir for fuel to be pushed through your motor. Fuel flows into the float chamber from the take through a valve at the top of the chamber. A floating ball opens a valve attached to a pivot arm. When the fuel in the chamber drops below a certain point, the pivot arm will trigger the valve to open.
  • The fuel jet nozzle on your Honda CB350 bike is a calibrated opening in the float chamber that determines how much fuel will be drawn into the Venturi pipe. The fuel first moves through a well where baffles vaporize the fuel making it highly combustible.
Should you buy OEM or aftermarket parts for your bike?

When you have determined that you need to purchase a new carburetor, you will need to decide whether to buy Original Manufacturer Equipment (OEM) parts or to find an aftermarket model. OEM parts are made by Honda and are specially designed by their engineers for your CB350 bike. Aftermarket parts are produced by third-party companies and are universal in design. However, just because these products are not made by Honda does not mean that they are inferior in quality or will not last long. Ultimately, this comes down to a personal choice, and you will need to compare and contrast different models to find the one that works for your motorcycle.

How do you replace this product?
  1. Before you begin dismantling anything on your bike, disconnect the battery on your CB350 to avoid any potential fire hazard. Next remove all linkages, the throttle, choke, fuel line, and anything else that might be connected.
  2. After everything is disconnected, loosen all the bolts and nuts holding it in place. Then carefully remove the carburetor from the motor. Keep it steady to avoid spilling any fuel inside. Drain out any fuel, and remove the gasket from the intake manifold.
  3. Clean off the gasket using a cloth rag and replace it, then install the new product. Do not forget that the battery needs to be reconnected last to avoid an accident.
