So I did finally "finish" the build. I ended up ditching the battery all together and went with a capacitor. Bike runs and idles great and starts first kick.I switched the front headlight out with a gl1000 headlight and put in a 12w led bulb so i can ride at night. ( not enough power with the...

I wasn't entirely sure where to post this, but i am looking for part 13 and 14. Does anyone have one that i could buy? Or does anyone know where to get one. Thanks

I can not figure this out to save my life. I have a 1972 cb350 and just put on new controls that are high low off and kill switch. When i wired them into my system electricity is only going to coils when the kill switch is pushed in. I have to black wire going to the coils and the white wire to...

And if that doesn't work out ill have to extend the swingarm. (though i will avoid this if i can as i dont want to slow the steering of the bike)

Well I am running 13.5 in shocks which are about an inch more in clearance. I assume that will be fine but ill make sure and measure the travel.

So I am really bad at this build thread thing :P . Anyways been working on the bike for a while now and its "almost" complete. So i decided to paint the tank my self with rustleom and a paintroller and am pretty happy with the results. Also welded the frame up and repaint the subframe.

I would have waited until you had the pipe made before cutting things off. Here is how i welded a hoop on a cb350 and its been holding up well.

So my idea is that I will buy 8 6v 1.3ah batteries put them in a series and parallels to get a 12v 5.2 ah battery. I really like these batteries as they are only 1 inch thick meaning they will fit flush with the seat frame. Will 5.2 ah be enough? I am running kick only with led tail light and...

Okay I apologize for my past posts as they are clearly not going into enough detail :-[. So Ill start all over. I bought this bike back in 2013. That year I read the clymer manual about a dozen times, took the whole bike apart, striped the frame, repainted the frame, checked pressure in both...

So I am trying to decide on a smaller battery so i can hide it under the seat. I was looking at buying two 6v 4.5amph batteries and combining them. Has anyone had problem with this kind of set up?

So I ran into a problem yesterday when i was starting the bike. The bike will ideal around 1200 rpms then it will either stall or shoot up to around 3000 rpms and sit there. I assume this is because of dirty carbs but I wanted to get a second opinion before I start cleaning them.

I didnt get around to taking any pictures of the bike as a friend from out of town was here, but i did manage to find a picture of all the things i have bought for the bike.

If I combined both these batteries http://www.ebay.com/itm/Power-Sonic-Powersonic-PS-1250F1-12-Volt-5-Amp-Hour-Sealed-Lead-Acid-Battery-w-/380828756831?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item58ab29ab5f would this work?

Ill add much better picture once I get home from work.

I had a guy who paints show cars and he offered to paint my gas tank for 300 dollars. The gas tank I own is all ready stripped and I want him to bondo the badge wholes. I dont know much about painting so I dont know if this is a good deal. What do you guys think?

About two years ago I bought a 1972 honda cb350 in a box from a guy in Canada. At the time I knew very little about mechanics other then what I have learned in engineering school.(alot of theory very little hands on). Since then Ive put it all together and have it running pretty well. I plan on...

Well I trying to hide the battery. What is my smallest option for a battery?
