What about What?
So I started a new project. My dad had this bike sitting in his shop for the last 15-20 years, it used to run but when they moved up to the new property in the country on a long stretch of dirt road he decided it was to dangerous for him to ride back and forth to work. So it just sat. For fathers day I found him a TW200 and relieved him of the CJ.
This is a stock photo I found as I didn't take one before I started tearing into it.
I am thinking I am going to build something comfortable, more upright. I love the way the rear cowl looks as a seat bump.
Bought some flat bars off of a old dirt bike. They feel great not too far forward.
Thinking I am going to run a single tach. The idea is to run a phone mount for the speedo.
I am using the headlight off of the CB450 as it is a bigger light (looks cooler in my opinion) and the headlight on the CJ fell apart as soon as I tried to take it apart.
This is my first try at fiberglassing my own seat pan. didn't turn out perfect but will do for now.
this is where it sits right now, I am thinking of doing a small curled up exhaust, but next is seat mounts and rear tail lights.
