    Pics of Newer Style Swingarms on Classic Bikes

    Found some interesting wheels that I want to run so I've gone with Harley swingarm/brakes etc to make the my life easier, if that makes sense. Just finished at the machine shop but the pivot point clearance is a bit tight so I've got to finish it off by hand. I'll make a build thread once it's...

    Let me see your tail section with lights

    I don't have many good pictures of the rear of the bike (this one was taken before the electrical was even finished), but here's my tail section. It's a 72 CB350F and I bought a fibreglass tail section from Airtech Streamlining that was meant for a larger CB750 sized bike. I wasn't concerned...

    Vancouver BC, CB350F

    So it's been about two years since I purchased the bike, but I haven't really posted anything on the build. I got the bike running early last year and rode it around as much as I could. I love my 350F, it's a great bike but it had a tired engine that leaked and burned quite a bit of oil. That...

    Lowering my cb400f, rear shocks question

    I purchased some RFY shocks from Ebay for about $90 shipped. I know they are made in china, but I couldn't justify spending more on something when the whole bike was getting torn down and rebuilt within the next year or two. I rode on them for all of last season, and I was happy with them. I...

    Ya I'll need to get a custom front sprocket and a spacer made for the rear sprocket because the swingarm carries a 5.5" wheel. The stock 350 wheel looks awfully silly in there so I'm getting a rim and spokes from buchanan to beef it up a bit.

    Cool thanks for the pic notlob. A 900 is a much bigger bike than my little 350, but the parts were cheap enough so I think I'm going to go ahead with the build. Should be interesting to try and get it back together before riding season starts, wish me luck!

    Pics of Newer Style Swingarms on Classic Bikes

    Hey guys I've searched around and haven't been able to come up with any pictures of classic Japanese bikes with new style swingarms (not just the boxy 2000ish sport bike swingarms, the 2008+ spaceship looking ones.) I've got my CB350F torn down to the frame right now and have amassed some new...

    Rockhard Helmets

    I have the rockhard america and it fits awesome. I was going to buy the Bell 500 because I liked the orange, but tried it on and found that it was overly bobble-headed. I have a fairly small head with no major bumps or tumors growing out, but unfortunately with helmets you just have to try...

    Whats the best 3/4 helmet that sits on your head nice?

    Rockhard America fit me great and all I did was measure my head and pick the size according to their website.

    Bell Custom 500 helmets vs Biltwell helmets

    I've tried on a Bell 500 and I own a Rockhard America. I have a small-to-medium sized head and found that the Bell 500 look absolutely horrible compared to the Rockhard. Both are DOT approved, but my only concern is that Bell is a massive company with lots of racing history and advanced...

    Ebay Cafe Seats from Vietnam

    Is your front tire on backwards? Nice seat btw, what was the total cost to get it done, and how many hours of communicating did it take?

    Vancouver BC, CB350F

    So after spending a little time in SE Asia and riding some scooters n smaller-engined bikes, I fell in love. I've always been a car guy cause my dad forbid me from even looking at motorcycles because he was a paramedic and has seen some nasty stuff. I'm a little older now so after messing...
