For sale is my custom built electric Ninja 250. Fully street legal and ready to ride. The last thing that needs finished is the gas tank, it's primed and ready for the new owner to put their mark on this bike. Here's the basic specs: Top Speed: 87 mph (that's the fastest I've gone, but I ran...

I've started a new project, and unfortunately need to sell my CB360 to fund it. More details about the other project at: http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=64772.0 I've been fiddling with the 360 for awhile, and in my frustration, listed it for sale without getting it running 100%...

I'm building another electric bike, except this time I promise to finish it. Some of you guys might remember a few years ago when I was working on an electric CB750, but unfortunately I had to sell that project to fund a move to California. Now I've got a job and some time, and things have...

Hey guys, I've had my 1974 CB360 for a few months now, and have been working on it off and on. I've done some work on it myself, I've also taken it to a mechanic who did some work, and it still runs rough. Current problems are: - Sticking float needle is causing it to piss gas occasionally out...

Just picked up a running (not great) CB360. It looks pretty good, my goal is to make it run as well, hopefully better. The bad: - Valve train sounds pretty noisy, hopefully re-tensioning the cam chain and adjusting the valve clearances will take care of it. Has the 2 punches on the VIN plate...

Hey guys, I'm a pretty novice rider, and I was forced to sell my first bike (xs650) to deal with several moves and lots of student debt. Now that my girlfriend and I are settled, she's got the urge to learn how to ride. So we're talking about picking up a small bike to learn on when we come...

Hey guys, I just passed my MSF safety course in the fall and got my license. I just now have a bit of stability (and a steady job) so I want to buy a bike. I found an xs650 really close to my house but I need a little help. Here are the pictures: As you can see, it has a totally...

This is a dumping ground for some awesome electric motorcycles that have been built for both race and street. Some of them you've probably seen before. I've been doing a ton of research for my own build. If you guys have any questions on electric bikes let me know.

I've been prepping my frame for powder, I ground off all the unneeded tabs and passenger stays, and filed it all smooth. The frame looks pretty close to ready for powder, but I open tubing in the back where the frame was chopped and I need to seal it. I was thinking about using JB Weld to fill...

Hey guys, I'm working on a project converting a my CB750 to run on batteries. I have a tank I wanted to use, but it's kind of nice and I feel bad tearing it apart because my friend is kind of interested in it. So to cut down on the weight even more, I was thinking about using a fiberglass tank...

It's been a real long time since I've been here (the color scheme used to be black, right?) but now I'm back with a project to talk about. Last time I posted here was well over a year ago, and I was happily wrenching on my 1978 CB750 every night after work. I received word that my dad was...

I've searched and read the threads on epoxy rattlecan paint, but I have a few questions about my particular scenario when it comes to painting my tank and cowl. The tank has a lot of bondo, and I saw a lot of people recommend no primer, just shoot it on, wait a week, wetsand, shoot again, wait...

Hey guys, You probably remember me posting a thread over a year ago (or maybe you don't, I digress). Well, I got my grubby little mitts on a big ol' 1978 CB750K. I'm a design student, so aesthetics are a big part of this project for me. But right now I'm just tearing it down. I'm broke, broke...

Well, I'll give you guys a quick rundown. I'm a college student at the University of Cincinnati, studying Industrial Design (product design more or less). Well, being surrounded by other industrial designers who are in the transportation (auto and cycle design) track, I kind of got this...
