TENDRIL Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 summer commuter/ spring project got OE fork seals on the way. did a OE oil filter going to re do the seat got to choose some new rubbers remove rear fender and find or order a diff style / decide OG tank for capacity or sportster tank for the gained HP and street cred possibly clean up harness and re paint frame and inspect hardtail welds going with pod filters get some signals and a tail light gauge(s) got a new AGM battery for it bought this lot of Handle bars for $20 hopefully a few of them are straight enough to pick from probably go for one of these sets of tires or 6 Quote Link to comment

Lockleaf Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Nice bike. Congrats on the purchase. I've been riding on Shinko brand tires for a few years and have no complaints about the performance and the prices are good on them. I think I'm on a set of shinko 712 on my gl500 right now. I have a set of cb550 carbs just chilling in my garage if you want/need them. Just pm me if you do, I'll make you a good deal. 1 Quote Link to comment
Dolomite Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 That's a good looking baby cb but my back is killing me just seeing that seat and hardtail setup. I agree about that fender, it doesn't flow with the rest of the bike's style. Good score. 1 Quote Link to comment
TENDRIL Posted March 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 runs great seems to have new gaskets and oil , the PO put a ton of time into the thing than lost interest than sat for 6 years is what i gathered from the kid who sold it to me. I got it for a deal considering other bikes with similar style I'm slammed with work so it will be little bits here and there, and because I know it already runs good that's a huge relief for the overall plan this is also my first venture into metric bobbers Quote Link to comment

skyblue Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Those headers will rust again. Or did you coat them with something? 1 Quote Link to comment
metalmonkey47 Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 What size tires are you running man? The bike looks GREAT. I guess I have to post my CB750 somewhere. Quote Link to comment
