    Ideas anyone?

    I am going to have all of the registration taken care of. The po put a lot of work into it and had to sell it for bills. I think I will find some mufflers and make sure its dialed in correctly. I wouldnt mind taking 1500 for it, but it seems people have no bargaining skills any more. haha. For...

    Ideas anyone?

    That's what I was thinking too. Am I close on the price? I have had two people email me and cuss me saying how over prices I am.

    Ideas anyone?

    So I picked up a pretty clean cl350 the other day from a used car salesman. I got it cheap enough that I'm not hurt and have some room to play with it. As soon as I buy it I get approved to buy a home. Back on Craigslist it goes. I didn't know where to start so I asked 2500 for it. Since then I...

    It's time to pull the carbs apart and clean them. I have the two screws out that hold them together but I'm confused as to how to split the linkage? Anyone have a suggestion? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Well i just ordered the cleaner so thats on the way, i forgot to post earlier but i am thinking about building a back bone on the frame and getting rid of the split for the intake boot. I have this idea of using the back bone as the intake and running the air cleaner off the frame and having...

    That cafe up there looks killer with the mono shock, i think im going to use the cheapo ebay resi shocks and see how that ends up. I like that color on the seat though, nice work.

    Got the carbs off last night, i forgot to get sawzall blades but i did get the bars and controls off. i took some photos on my camera this time. Should have them loaded up in a bit. Its un real the amount of wiring on this thing. I feel a little overwhelmed but i figure i should try on this bike...

    Thats about all i want. i am going to get a mechanic friend to come over later and supervise (aka drink my beer) while I cut some of this stuff off. I also hope to pull the carbs and cut some stuff off the frame this evening.

    Got the exhaust and center stand off. Going to start cleaning up the frame and what not tonight. I also started pulling the cluster and signals off. I am wondering if this is a good time to start on moving and deleting some of the wiring? There is a box behind the headlight with plugs in it, i...

    I would be interested to see how you do your wiring! I have the luxury of having a few friends that are really good bike mechanics. We powder coat so that will save me a ton of money. As for the style I think I'm going to go more of a Honda grom style.. I am going to order a couple parts to...

    We got it fired up last night and she doesnt sound all that bad. I am looking to order a new air intake and start sorting out some of the small stuff. I know that the headlight and speedo cluster have to go but i am kinda scared to go cutting up wires. Does anyone have a method on trimming the...

    I like where you are taking that bike motorman, i think i will use your uni idea. I am currently thinking that i will delete most of the wiring after I get it running. I want to get rid of the huge mass of shit on top of the handle bars. I just want to run head light/brake lights. I am going to...

    I think im going to use your idea for the uni filter mod. My air box is completely trashed and man is it a pain to get out of its hole. Do you have any jetting issues with the uni?

    I like that bottom tracker style. How finicky are the carbs on these? the airbox is shot and it doesnt have the intake tubes. can you run tubs back and make a custom intake with a uni filter on it? I am thinking the front end is going to be beefed up if i can find a donor. I looked around it a...

    So I saw this little guy on a Facebook barter page for free Saturday morning. I messaged the guy and it happened to be in a little town about ten minutes from me. I don't think I could have gotten dressed and out the door any faster. Turns out I know the kid and he had some other parts I needed...
