    What's going on now over at Ichiban Moto ?

    Well it looks like you tried all the usual tricks... Have you tried boiling water? That dissolves sugar cubes really quick, and a cube is pretty close to a block... Failing that... Chipper/shredder?

    Yea but that was a nice gesture, which I'm sure he appreciates. The kit looks expensive so he might be able to sell what's left on eBay to help finance the purchase of a project bike.

    That's a sweet kit! Looks like they give you enough material to modify several headlights.

    Bundt... That's oddly fitting. If I remember correctly from high school Bundt is Latin for "badass!"

    Aussie 1982 CB750 DOHC - First Build

    The tank on my project is rusty inside and out. This is how I'm going to handle it. I have a chrome shop not too far away, I called them and they said they'd dip my tank in the acid tank to remove all the rust and paint inside and out for about $40. I'd have about $100 in enough metal magic to...

    Genius. Do you think the ammonia in the used cat litter helped to cut the rust? Your ingenuity continues to amaze.

    Very nice! Love the paint and the fab on the 2-1 is sweet! Where are you at in pit? I'm up in beaver. Some of us 'Burghers should get together and have a couple beers and bs.

    78 kz400 cafe build

    Amazing build! I've been cruising DTT and the rest of the interwebs for the last few months looking for inspiration for my upcoming build. I have a 79 kz400 that I have started collecting pieces for. I ran across pics of your bike in a google search and drooled all over them. Saved a couple to...

    Electrical Supplies, Wire, relays switches etc

    Painless wiring makes harnesses and stuff more aimed at the custom car market but they sell their wire separately too. Lots of colors and with black and white tracers too on the smaller gauges. Prices are pretty high IMO but if you need lots of colors it might be a good option.

    Another cb 360t, but with a sexy twist.

    I think you'll be good with the nylon thread. My mom did automotive upholstery for about 15yrs. She used nylon thread for that and it's almost indestructible. You can give the cotton or silk thread a little tug and break a piece off but if you try to do that with the nylon thread, sometimes you...
