Ok, so hear is my project. I am in the middle, kinda, of rebuilding my 71 CB350. I have researched and research many sites to get parts from, ideas on anything from wiring to seat building and beyond. I couldn't help but notice how everyone on this site helps each other out so much and that's what I am here for. Here is where I started last summer...
So...This winter I pulled it into the garage and started to tear her apart to turn her into a more reliable little cafe racer. I want to start by replacing all of the 40 year old wiring and electrical components. I'm guessing thats a good place to start. I bought a really nicely done wiring diagram off ebay and it's helped alot.
As for everything else... here is the list of what I think I need to replace on it and some things I want to replace.
And here is where the bike is now...
I am planning on integrating a telescoping rear cowl over the seat like shown in the sketch above on the parts page, but the main idea is to allow me to ride single or extend the seat and ride 2 persons. And I know it's just a 350, but I rode 2 people last summer stock and it's fun!
Anyway here is a quick rendering and sketch:
Tell me what you think please? Also if you have any advice with the wiring I am a newby so help would be awesome!!!
