lil beast soon to be cb175

von my buddy actually came through for me and is holding it for collateral. i'm pumped it isn't totally out of my hands. i really didn't want to let her go. things will blow over soon just keeping my head up.
 
Be a shame to lose your bike, I hope stuff improves .......... the tide goes out, the tide comes in.
You're not alone mate. :)

i got these cl pipes for 20 bucks LB swap meet. plan to cut the mufflers off but i don't think they will work for the bike as the guy wasn't sure if they came off a 200 or 350 either way it was worth it. a bit of rust but no eating or holes so thats good.

Hey Chris, did you have to remove the shock mount bushings too before you powder coated the swing arm? How did you get those out?
 
i pulled a dummy move and didn't remove them :(. It took me forever to get the correct bushings for the swing arm, but i posted the info in the quote you are actually referring to. check them out

Thanks Chris. Yeah, Debbie is out of them! I have a local dealership that has them in stock for $18 a piece, but I found some bushings that measure almost identical on McMaster Carr website for $1 a piece! Did you get the bike back?
