Yeah my cables are hard up against the bucket too. But the metal bend is pressing against the bucket. Doesn't really seem to effect mine that I've noticed. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Got the Sonic springs in and the fork boots on! Think it looks better! Also tides really nice and tight! Next I'm going to wrap the exhaust and do a coil modification to bypass done if the old wiring to give me a better spark. And also fix the seat haha! Which way to the beach? Sent from...

Hi gennabean! No progress on the seat! Been lazy on that front. Going to take Killman77's advice and need to trim the pan on the lower edge and I think I'll shave the seat foam a little myself and take it back to the guy and have him recover it. It doesn't bother me as much as it first did...

Wow! Your bike is looking awesome! Now that's a good looking seat! And wheels, and tank, and exhaust, and suspension, and engine! Very nice! Can't wait to see it all together! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

If I did put the mud guard on it, I'd probably cut it down and paint it black. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

And today is the day I picked up my seat! Went for a vintage/distressed colour. Think I will put some water proof boot polish on the seat to make it look a little shiny. I think he made it too big. But it is very comfortable! Without or with the mudguard? I'll see if it grows on me...

Hey 99Rocketman I replied to your post on that tapatalk app thing and I guess it never posted!! Yes HollywoodMX is correct they are the dime city cycle ones for around $70. Work great and look good, in my opinion...

Finally got my seat made up. My neighbor welded it together for me. Think he did a great job! Then I sprayed it with some Rustoleum gloss protective enamel and took it to the local upholstery shop. Fingers crossed he'll do a good job. I told the guy I wanted the seat to look like this...

Pulled the carbs to give them a quick clean. Weren't too dirty, but one bowl bypass thing was blocked. Tried to spray it out with carb cleaner. Didn't work. Left carb cleaner in it for a few hours and tried to spray it out with 125psi of compressed air, still couldn't clean it out. Spent...

jorge0136 here are my new mini gauges. They have some of the warning lights, guess you could just buy that speedo gauge and swap your one out with it, and that would solve some of your problems!

Yeah I really like having a fuel gauge too! I was sad to remove it. I guess I'll just have to learn the sloshing of the tank to check the level! I bought the speedo with warning lights on it, I really like them! Put the gauges on, sorted the gremlin (which was a super obvious gremlin... a...

I did a compression test when I first got mine and it was kinda low like yours. A trick I was told to get it up higher is to pull all the spark plugs and spray some Marvel Mystery Oil straight down into the spark plug holes and let the oil do it's magic. I'd spray it in plug all the holes with...

Looking great Sean! Looks like a beautiful classic bike! Amazing that it started as a "classic" 80's looking bike, and now it's a real classic looking bike!

Looking awesome Sean! I love the spoked rims! Really really makes the cafe racer look! I really wanted spokes, but alas I have a shaft drive. There is some talk about using a spoked shaft wheel off a suzuki boulevard thing, but I think it's too wide or something. Too much fabricating for...

Here's my project: http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=54144.0 It's going haha! Normally I fix one thing and break something else! So in a constant state of repair! Just got a set of mini speedos and tachs from Dime City Cycles. Installed them and now none of my lights work haha...
