Copper Pipe Customs - CL175 Build Thread - THE TIGER! (DONE..for now. VIDEO!)

Here she is purring much nicer after re-indexing the cam and a rejet. The blast around the block was fun!
Hopefully it wont be raining tomorrow and ill get the fairings on then take it through the twisties at Schenley Park.

Had some time in the garage to finish up my 2-1 exhaust. There were some black friday deals @ summit racing so I grabbed an O2 sensor and gauge for cheap.. When the sensor is not in use, ill be using the bung for a case evacuation system. I still have some designing to do there.

Also changed the position of the oil cooler and pressure gauge to work with the 2-1...

Couple more for the history books, and a view of the previous setup.

I have been looking for intake manifolds i have a 76 cb200 and i have vm22 to run they are spigot mounted on both sides do you have and idea where to get them thanks.
 
Signed up for this one answer ey?
The ones shown are the stock manifolds with the carb side flange cut off. fit with a rubber coupler.
 
The weather broke this weekend so I spent some time relaxing in the shop.

I'm almost done with my crankcase evacuation canister. I just need a check valve to the canister. I'm thinking of picking up a brake booster valve. I don't know if it can handle the heat...

Anyone have a suggestion on a small check valve?

Here's some glamour shots.

Thanks for the compliments.

I'm hoping to get to the track this spring. If my van doesn't turn to rust this winter.

bumping this want it at the top of my list.
 
Very nice! Love the paint and the fab on the 2-1 is sweet! Where are you at in pit? I'm up in beaver. Some of us 'Burghers should get together and have a couple beers and bs.
 
Thanks! I'm in the Lawrenceville Morningside area of the city... A beer sounds good sometime!
 
Made some phenolic spacers for the carburetor manifolds. The added length changed the idle characteristics for the better.
It's a bit smoother of an idle.

Making them was pretty toxic, they needed to be drilled slowly so it wouldnt burn... They chewed through a spade bit. I recommend wearing a dust mask, if not something better.

But they look good and insulate the carbs from heat well.
