Re: 76 CB360, Functional Front Fender.
Thanks frogman. I really like it. The old lady stepped out the door, wrinkled her nose and said "Its VERY German looking" I think it kinda gives it an old military feel...maybe. I think it looks better here in the garage "in person" than it does in that pic. The angle maybe I suppose. Ill try another pic here in a moment.
Lol at xb...Thats some crazy ass Evil Kineval clearance on the ole bsa!

Re: 76 CB360, Functional Front Fender/ Hack Job Rear.
Woke up at 3:21 this morning. So, driven by a nicotine/caffeine burst. I got busy.
Its pretty much a complete hack job. But, a job none the less. And it gives me a good idea what I want. It will last til next winter and I re-do it. :
grind, cut, drill...repeat. knocked the old front fender off its brace and pulled rear off.
Funny, they pretty much "snap" together then just drill and bolt her up. Also, funny the trimmed areas to clear forks pretty much fit swingarm perfectly.
Bonus, F-ed up paint already matches. 8)
And here she is. I tried to get the front a rear braces to be near the same angle.
I do wish she had a little more clearance on the tire...but hell isnt 2mm enough! Kidding, its maybe 1/2 inch I woulda rather seen 3/4.
If I need to adjust chain this season Im screwed. LOL Cutting a link out of chain will give me the clearance Ide like.
Best treatment for old tail light bolt holes...NOTHING. HA ;D

I like the full rear fender, FWIW. The hacked fenders always seem to look hacked to me.....The full fender is more aesthetically correct to me....

Re: 76 CB360, Functional Front Fender/ Hack Job Rear.
I really like the new look.
Kinda sorta like something a lot older modified in Europe to match 1950's 'race' tech ;D 8)
Really like the exhaust as well, may make something closer to that than the modern MX silencer (or maybe modify the modern stuff and paint it 'battleship grey' )

Re: 76 CB360, Functional Front Fender/ Hack Job Rear.
thanks bubba! ;D
Am I going TOO cheesy?
Ordered it from India for $18 and free shipping, the "Panther" sticker will come off. I will definitely epoxy it all black and just add some random numbers in gray or white. I may do some re-sizing w the grinder.

Nope, it's fine. I have one from several years ago that I was going to fit on XS 800. As usual, I never got around to it.
My father had Panther's for years, left the last one to my brother in his will, 1963 model 120 (650 single)

You need a new bike, so you can leave this one alone.
