Hey Guys!
This is my first post in the forum, and my first cafe racer build. I recently acquired a 1974 Honda CB360G, all original parts except for a set of Moto Guzzi pipes (for sale, if anyone's interested ) I will also be selling most of the factory body parts (gauge cluster, handlebars and controls, fenders, seat, etc.
I bought the bike about a month ago, in non-running condition with plans to completely strip, recondition and re-haul the motor, fuel and electrical system, as well as fabricate custom body pieces - standard cafe racer build. I have a background in 3d modeling and CNC/composite constructions, so I will be doing a lot of precision machining and fabrication.
So far I've completely cleaned and soaked the carbs, stripped the bike down to the frame, and I'm currently in the process of tracking down my electrical problem (suspecting its a ground problem - I've replaced battery, coils, points and condenser - I have power to the coils but no spark coming out....for another day).
Here are some pics of the bike as it stands right now:
