Re: improved carbs new mufflers 76 CB360, before & after
haha back to the bike.. the extended swing arm looks cool but it looks like it would sag if you sat on it because it already sits low.. maybe im blind. I think it would look even cooler if you adjusted those shocks and raised the ass end up a little to compensate for some compression once you sat down.. No? Also, no go on the back fender UNLESS you matched the front fender with something similar.

I used longer shocks so actually the bike still sits at the stock height. I have almost 3" before the fender would bottom out on the frame. Also, Illinois roads can get pretty rough so I always keep the shocks at their softest setting. Havent bottomed yet. and the fenders are pert near identical. the front is the stock 69 350..cut down. and the rear is the original 76 360 front.

Ahhh i see now. Hard to tell in the pictures sometimes. You should have went a little longer with the swinger and then stuffed a NOS bottle in the gap between the tire and the "u" of the swing arm... why now? All the Busa guys do it 8)

You read my mind!!!! I wanted to get a small NOS bottle. cut the top off, add a hinge and clasp and use it for my tool box!!! tucked right in the swing. If i could find a used one cheap enough I would do exactly that!!!

Re: improved carbs new mufflers 76 CB360, before & after
thanks...yes some projects call for extra safety. lol Also, I wouldnt want take any chances to find out the hard way. But Im thinking NOS isnt flammable without the fuel. NOS replaces the Air in system not fuel. I believe it burns 6 times faster than oxygen. so it needs the fuel. Not really sure...but thats what Im thinking.
Re: improved carbs new mufflers 76 CB360, before & after
Ever thought of a mini fire extinghuisher? It's prolly not safe to cut one up. But, you could contact your local fire department and ask of they could spare an old tank and ask of they know anything about cutting them apart.. I could be an idiot for suggesting this. ha Just a thought
Re: improved carbs new mufflers 76 CB360, before & after
I looked at co2 bottles for paint ball guns. but I think they are just too small. need something like 4.5" x 10"
It probably would be a hoot just to see the looks on the firemans faces. "You wanna do what w what?!?!"
OOH just thought of somethin one of those little short fat 1lb coleman camp stove propane bottles...now how do I get ALL the propane out ?!?!
Re: improved carbs new mufflers 76 CB360, before & after
I'm not sure how to get all of the propane out. I imagine that the bottle has to be "open" for a long period of time to be sure its all out. Perhaps you could push on the relief valve with something and then tape it into place so that it is stuck open. Leave it outside away from anything that may ignite it and within a day it should be purged completely. That would be what I'd do.. Anyone else?
Thinking of making a toolbox to tuck into swingarm of the 360. Real NOS bottles are way to $ for this.
YEP 1lb propane bottle fits perfect. cut the top off add hinge and hasp. paint it w "chromey" type spray paint. I know it looks crappy but I aint gonna get it chromed!! And blue just wouldnt fit the bike. w the red and all
