Re: 1968 Honda CB450 - "Bangarang" (NEW PICTURES... TOW TO "SPECIAL" THREAD?)
So, I got my front brake cable from DCC and ran into a problem!
When ordering, I forgot to take into account the aftermarket fork tubes that the original owner installed. The aftermarket "chopper" tubes made the cable too short, as the distance from the brake unit to the handle bar longer. This explains why the OEM brake cable simply snapped at the handle.
I'm going to drop the fork tubes through triple to lower it a bit (after I do the fork seals) and hopefully its all the remedy I need.
Going to order the seals today and hope they are in by next week when I receive my legal papers from Moto Recycle.

Also, I started taking apart the front end and painting parts, will post pictures soon!
