Re: 1978 Honda cb400t cafe/streetfighter build (beginning) looks like you did a hell of a job with that seat, congrats! Did you just teach yourself to weld then do the battery box / did you buy the welder from harbor freight?

Bought a bar end (not the mirror, just the end) for 10 bucks and just swapped out that hardware, worked like a gem! Thanks everybody for the input!

This bike is about the best inspiration I've found for my new r80 - do you have a build thread anywhere? If not, would you mind sharing info on the seat,tires, rear blinkers/brake light unit? I assume the rear mudguard is just one you bought and figured a way to mount?

Would this work on plastic as well or is it too strong thus causing damage?
