Not done, but got it into riding condition so I can have a blast for a while. I have new handlebars, new grips, new posh miniswitches, and I need to paint the fork covers and fashion up a hugger for the rear. Not idling too well either, seems to die even at 1200-1600 rpm. Otherwise drives great...

Got the seat back from the upholsterer today, sits better than the original! I'm highly satisfied.

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build - Check out the paint! The tires were on it when I bought it, just haven't replaced them yet and haven't put the front fender I ordered on yet. Also, according to the measurements I made before I cut and welded the hoop, I should have plenty of clearance. Will update...

Been a little while, forgot to update haha. Got the rear loop welded on, ground down, took the tabs off, made seat pan and battery box, adjusted the valves, rebuilt the starter clutch. I do have this right, right?

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build - Check out the paint! Got the engine painted. Not as nice as the tank, but I think it came out pretty well.

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build - Check out the paint! Hey all, got my new headlight on today and took it for my first ever ride on the road. Wobbles a little bit at around 50-60. Also, not sure if I'm charging well enough. Seeing about 12.5-12.7 at idle and it maintains it, headlight on or off, at...

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build - Check out the paint! What charging voltage should I be seeing at idle & rpm with headlight off and on? Thanks

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build - Check out the paint! Better pictures and sunlight pictures tomorrow. Just use a measuring tape to make it even with the other side and across the bottom.

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build Color sanding and buffing to go. Gonna have the silver pinstriped black around it and re-clear. (Eventually) pictures in the sun come tomorrow, the candy metallic is beautiful in the light. Color changes completely with the light.

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build Quick question - I have a tiny shifter mounted to the spindle. From what I understand, it came stock with the linkage and the long shifter. Should I order the linkage shifter or just a regular long shifter to moint to the pivot? Will it make any difference? From what I...

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build Hey guys, been a while but I got the wheels on & brakes working. Got it running and adjusted clutch, works but I don't think it's fully disengaging. I can let it out and go into first and swap gears, but if I'm in 1st gear and it cuts off, I should be able to crank by...

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build Anyone know? Thanks again

Re: 1972 CB350 Brat Build Finally got the wheels trued and boxes of parts. Got the tank stripped and sandblasted and in epoxy. Front wheel isn't center, can't figure out why. I have the double washer axle nut, seems like I need a single washer axle nut. Or perhaps the forks are bent, I don't...
