Good to know, thank you 8)

So sorry, missed this post a while back! Yeah, the 100 exhaust does mount up to the 125 just fine. Still haven't messed with the carb :-X I need more time and motivation.

Looking for some advice from you 125 guys in the know: I'm having a hard time getting the stock Keihin carb to work on this bike. I've disassembled and cleaned it several times, but I can't get the bike to run with it. The choke does not seem to work, though I can't see anything mechanically...

Cool, I'll hold off until then! Not in any sort of rush.

Just checked out the site :o Looks like a damn good product but I don't have close to the budget for one of those setups at this stage :'( I'd love to get one of those at some point down the line for sure.

Anyone know of an American company that sells the right wiring harness I need before I send my money to Asia? And speaking of which, is there any way to check the quality of the many ebay harnesses available?

My bud and I slapped some Black Friday parts on Billi today! New rear shocks from DCC for that scrambler stance: Then off went the kickstand and right crankcase cover and a few other things, and out came the clutch basket for some nice new plates. We didn't take that many pictures with the...

Thanks, I love the way these old machines look on film. PS anyone know if the [instagram] code still works? Having trouble embedding posts.

Thanks, good to know the late model seats are different. The CB and CL will use the same seats; I think they're pretty much identical except for the scrambler pipe and gear ratio. I found a guy on the Yahoo group (which is pretty uninhabited nowadays) with a 75 seat that I'm gonna try to cop.

Hello again 8) I ended up ordering that speedometer. Thanks Peach for the heads up on that! I have not installed it yet :'( But the good news is I'm gonna start messing with the bike again. My buddies and I just ordered a few things for it, including new rear shocks, clutch plates, a roundie...

Thanks guys! I actually might try to snag that ebay speedo. It's only a year off, I'd bet it's compatible. Thanks for the link, iatethepeach. Also that reminds me, I think I have like $13 in credit at 4into1. I miss riding by that shop! Also nice Honda, Adventurco. I'll check out your build...

Reviving this for a quick update. Not much has happened with the bike in the last few months — took up a full time job and I'm living in an LA apartment with a shared garage, so not a lot of time or space for motorcycle building. I finally have money to throw at this build, but no time to get...

Thanks Trek, but I hope you aren't confusing my CB with my CL! The scrambler has a ways to go still :P I don't know why I like these little 125's so much... Oh wait, it's because they're fucking awesome!

Been a minute since I've updated, and not much else to report since then... My dad moved, and thus my workshop disappeared. Billi's been in my mom's garage along with a bunch of other crap I'm storing, and I recently started working full time so my time has been dedicated to that. Hate to put...

Damn that looks clean!
