So I picked up this CL360 last week for $600. Had a bill of sale from an owner or to ago, but for the price I figured I'd chance it. Battery completely dead, but came to life with a jump start from a spare AGM I had laying around. Hasn't been run since '05.
Plans are a quick OEM+ resto and then throw it on craigslist and see if I can't make a few bucks.
Good luck! Funny, I did the same thing but I made it too nice. Everybody who came and looked at it said they wanted more of a `project` bike. I will never put more than I have to into a bike now. You could probably get more money in the long run by just cleaning it up, adding a new battery and making sure it runs.
So I pulled the tank so I could swap out to the new petcock that arrived. I removed the current brass fitting and out poured a bunch of gas and rust. Looks like I'll be doing a cleaning and lining the tank, too.
The tank is back from the radiator shop. They ran it through their acid cleaner and then media blasted the exterior. Not bad for $70. Debating on whether or not I should seal it. Good selling point?
I also swapped the rear wheel out for the one from my other 360. It's a good excuse to get some aluminum wheels on SOS.
You need to put looonger pipes on her. Shesh, c'mon newbie, everybody knows that.
If you wanna flip her dont seal the tank. That will be fun for the next guy.
Seat really improved things. 8)
How did the acid bath work out for the interior...are you impressed?
I bet if you show the next owner this thread of all the quality work and time that has been invested yout will get more money back out of it. Usually it doesn't pay off to get new tires, adjust valves etc when flipping it but might in this case. I would pay more knowing what extras been done!
