so my buddy just took some really great pictures of this finished build and my daily driver. the black one used the stock seat pan and tank from the silver and orange bike to make the basis of the seat. an old cb tank was fitted and rattle can painted. the goal was to mod the bike with parts...

had a friend take some pretty pictures of my pair of cl360s. i just finished the fast and cheap cafe mod to the black one. the orange and sliver one's build is outlined here Re: 75' cl360 build photos

50gary,perfect. thanks. i'll look for one of these to add

ok so i put the taller shocks on and i noticed some chain slap/rub now on the swing arm. does anyone have experience with raising the back end on a 350/360. what is the tallest rear shock you have had good luck with with no rub? any tricks to keep this from happening. i have the chain tightened...

entered my cl360 in a classic car and bike show this weekend and ended up taking 2nd place in the motorcycle division (a fully restored 41' Indian took 1st). field had about 200-250 bikes. it was a pretty fun weekend. My son spent some time "riding" it on saturday.

I ended up getting a pair of 14.5" shocks from dime city. i think it improved the stance quite a bit. rides a bit better than the old ones too. here is a quick pick of the new look

looks like a really good deal.

dang, this build is next level. makes me very self conscious. Great Work!

i would love to but i have work that weekend. there is another show in barrington that same weekend that i am gonna try to make instead. maybe sunday i could make it. not sure if anything is happening at mods vs rockers on sunday though.

looking good

nice job. your bike looks great. i know that bike. that's RJ's "bud the beer bike". RJ is mainly responsible for getting me into this stuff. cool to find what a small world we are in. I'm out in chicago area but come to auburn from time to time and usually get together with RJ.

tim, i posted a pictorial last night in the cafe section of the big project section. first time builder with very limited budget and resources. i learned a lot through the process. http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=26404.0

thanks. i struggled for a long time working up the guts to jump into each new section as it was all so new to me. I know how daunting these big projects can seem. it helped me to only take single parts off at a time and focus on them individually. that way you only have a bunch of finished loose...

just measured and i need to shift a total of 2 inches. just ordered a set of 14.5" shocks from dime city. these should do the trick. i guess i probably should have bit the bullet off the bat and ordered these months. I post a pic or two of the new stance once i get the new ones on.

thanks so much for the kind words. i'm actually looking for a taller set of shocks for the rear. I'll probably lower the front a bit too. i agree that that stance needs to come forward a bit though.

Re: Willow...An evolution.. wow! looks so good! how did you get your carbs so clean? i would love mine to shine like that. whats the secret?

thanks for the encouragement. regarding the buffing wheel. i only let them use the small jewelers motor that i can almost stop with my hands. the 10yr old actually got a safety lesson and ended up helping polish a few parts in a safe manner. The 2 year old got a plastic straw to polish ;) . i...
