Been Around the Block
Well here it is my official build thread, things have been quiet as its rather cold so i thought i would get on here and share what im doing, and done thus far.
Here is my blank canvas, bought it as my birthday present, its a 1971 CB 450 ss, i got it in semi running condition. Started by draining a bunch of gasy oil out of it.
after that i screwed with it and got it started and running, wanted to make sure it wasn't a hopeless cause... Besides a strange carb issue, were the carbs were unsyncable, she was a solid runner.
Next stop was the rusty gas tank will i find pin holes upon cleaning?
Yuk, after only hours....
Initial tear down
Here i mounted a old set of dirt bike bars upside down to get the cafe feel going, and the creative juices flowing
