Here's sneak peek at my new seat..
better photo's coming soon.
my woman was bitching about not being able to ride with me, so I decided she could help me sew up my seat.
with the new seat I had to fab a new fender, this one is a 450 front..
still need to extend that sissy bar and make it my fender struts.
you can see my nice new biltwell gum grips.. they feel nicee.

got some betty photos of the seat.
I also added a turn signal switch on the down tube of the handbars put the grips on..
for it being my first seat.. I don't think it's terrible, but it could be tighter... I've got 10 bucks invested in it so changing it would not be a huge pain in my ass or wallet..
It has come to my attention that the carb may not be able to be jetted low enough to run on a 350 (it's a high performance mikuni for a 1200 harley) so I'm looking into other options.
I really need to get a welder.
I'm working on fixing up my cb360 so I can sell it and thus focus on this beast.. More updates hopefully soon.

A lil fyi......that intake carb setup is gonna be starving your motor for fuel at higher rpms(too long and going up). I've built alot of 350 motors for street and track........best option would be to go back to the stock intakes.

Yeah, the carb is way too big too, I threw the stock carbs back on, hopefully I can get it running this weekend..
maybe my vertical frame support was moved on this frame but I can't get the choke linkage to fit and work.. any suggestions?

thanks for the kind words jay, hopefully this bitch will be on the road sooner rather than later.

Frame looks fine....choke linkage should be in a "v" shape with the point of the "v" going forward.

thanks greg.. you wouldn't happen to have the stock footpegs/bar for a 350 would ya?
i know you cafe guys like your rear sets which leads to a pile of stock footpegs.
let me know.. thanks.

So checked the compression when I spent weeks kicking at this thing.. 25 x 90, fucked, bought new cylinder head, piston, rings, put it all together, more issues.. tight valve clearance.
spider and I think we may have flipped the camshaft when re-installing, or i guess it could be the points advancer lobe..
more updates hopefully soon, school semester and jobs and girlfriend are biting at the heels and i'm choppin at the bit to get this chop done.. ftw. gsgp.
next post should have a video of her runnin'.

thanks man, I'm probably going to just do some lettering over the scummy tank and rusty electronic box.. swearing is crucial..
I lost an header on my shakedown, found the pipe, didn't find the shims, got some comin in the mail..
hopefully I'll have a nice set of finished photos next week or the week after.
