Here she is so far now. Got the pea shooters on and tuned the carbs a bit more. The weather has been cold and then hot windy back and forth so I cant wait for a stable week. I may make a video of ridding it cause I have a small camera that goes on my helmet!!

Got some "M" bars from Norman Hyde and painted the controls. Also have the rebuilt carbs back on the bike!!! Just wondering what to do with the tank: 1.Leave as is, wet sand and clear. 2. add some stripes or some other design. 3. repaint to silver. ??? Cant make up my mind. :-\

I didn't mean to add them, but I did mean to leave them. LOL.

I used the stuff from Lowes or walmart meant to seal cracks in walls! It expands alot, so don't over do it. That entire hump was almost a full can!!!

Oh and it's sandable.

It's closed cell foam. 1 inch thick. It's pretty firm, but I think it will break in a little when its hot out. I got it from a Kayak website for 12 bucks shipped.http://www.austinkayak.com just type in foam in their search bar cause I dont know the link. They have thinner sheets too!

Well I'm keeping the signals, Just removing the "dummy lights from in between the tach/speedo. The CBs have em on the top triple. But the GS's are just huge and since I'm removing the tach, I got no where to put em.

If you got one I got 25 bucks waiting for you depending on condition! Any color.

Thats what I get for not paying attention!

What do you mean by "Canuck Plumber"? I never had a black and gold bike but I did have a 72 CB500 Silver and black if thats what you meant. Unfortunately I sold it; Fortunately I made a profit!

Yeah I found that site a month or so ago, and man they have some great info i would be lost without!

First mock up with new tail light. I cleaned up and painted the original rear fender satin black. The bars are "euro" that I bought from CRConlinecatalogue. I ended up not liking them and have some Norman hyde "M" bars on the way!

New tires, fork seals and fork paint and polished rear drum. Used engine enamel on the forks cause last time My CB got some chips after a couple years.

yeah I seen the post! I'vee been too busy with fork seals, new tires,painting, bondoing small dents, ect for the last month I have not got a chance to post pics until now! not to mention the sweet cafe seat made by me - here is the link to that...

A good week and a half every night workin on it! Not to mention I'm still wondering about the red stripe. It may go, may stay. But for now it shall live....hahaha
