So I just joined the forum here after checking in for questions and answers and just looking around, I've finally decided to join up and show you all what I'm up to.
A couple years ago my daughter was born and the big, fast and expensive to insure litre sport bikes got sold and I found a '74 CB360 basket case literally lying in parts for a couple hundred bucks that peaked my interest. I never really had interest in old bikes but it was cheap and under 400cc, the cutoff in my area for super cheap insurance so I jumped at it and have been getting ideas all over the place and spending way too much time on Craigslist, Dime City and DTT sites ever since. Needless to say the vintage bike bug has bit, real good. So after almost two years, since I don't have much time to work on it, this is where I'm at. Just happy to show you all and maybe see if anyone has any suggestions. As with any project, it started out as just a simple get it going and ride it, then, let's make a cafe, then, let's cut and weld and powder coat the frame, then let's just make it with inverted forks and on and on it goes. Will I ever finish it? someday, but I've discovered that the best part of the project, is just that, having a project! The thing I'm most terrified of comes next... electrical...
Thanks for looking.
