Midweek Update! Got my wheels in! Had to start teaching myself how to lace them... Inners first! Inner - Outer DOOOHHHHH!!!! Inner Outer Spoke pattern wont fit clear the rotors. Had to take it apart and do inner - inner. Which was a pain in the ass... But it does look much cleaner...

No I do not. I have a full gasket kit. How do I go about doing this?

still for sale? How much.

I have the entire front end off mine.

I took some pictures today. I did end up filing the edges of the colling fins for some contrast in the motor. I have the tank and tail test mounted. I ended up cutting the hoop off and trimming it before replacing it on the frame. Also had to add a bracket to attach the tank. Pan was made for...

Hey Mike, good to see you on yet another Forum! This is Photographer from MotoHouston. I love the progress that you made on the rear suspension. hehe. Cant wait until we start mine! Just waiting on those dang wheels to come in. Let me know when you work on her next, I'll make the trip up to...

I think the motor has been gone though by the PO. I was planning on rebuilding, but I dont think its needed. I can see the condition of the valves, everything up top looks good. I could check the pistons just to be safe, but everything looked very clean.

Update time! Lots of progress made since I last posted. Have been pretty busy with work and school. Not to mention the races over the weekend, hehe. A buddy of mine helped me out with some welding and taught me a thing or two. Ended up buying my own little welder to learn more and be able to...

Updates coming soon. I need to sort through all the pictures.

This status update may be a little long. Since I don't get any replys, I'm less and less inclined to post. I found many wiring harness diagrams online. But none with what I needed. So I took one, and edited it to match what I will be doing. My woodcraft clipons arrived yesterday! Goodie. So...

I have seen a few wiring diagrams for this bike. Does anyone have a simplified one? I will not be running the starter, signals, etc. That should remove alot of the needed wiring on the bike. Just need the headlight, brake light, horn, and ignition system. Wondering if anyone has done this or...

Picked up my gsxr forks last night. Complete set up with triples. Bought a set of rotors and Mc off evilbay. Some people are just crazy about what they want for parts.... Ordered woodcraft clipons. Yoshi triple nut. As soon as my new hub makes it in I will have the front wheel done. Not sure...

Worked on the bike some more on Superbowl Sunday. Using bold cutters I removed the old chain. I also ground off the old foot peg points. I want to retain the kick stand, so for now that was the easiest way. But I have a new kick stand on the way, along with rear sets. And begain tackling the...

Considering selling the '72 if anyone is interested. I took about an hour on Friday to work on the bike some more. Im waiting on parts to start funneling in, so I took the exhaust and old carbs off the bike. While doing this I got tired of starring at that dirty ass motor... So I started...

Its not cheap. But I figured the headache from searching for a single hub and making spacers, not to mention machining rotors, would save time and money in the long run. So I ended up picking one up. I also got their headlight bucket, top triple clamp, and new chain. Thanks Cognitomoto. I...

Hey everyone! Im new here, but not to the motorcycling world. Thought I would put my build thread here, since I found so much information on this site. I decided I wanted to build another old bike. The last BMW I did was a lot of fun but this time I opted for a Honda. I purchased a 1972 and a...
