74 CL360 project

[3rd Degree]

Found this bike on CL last week and couldn't pass it up for $100. It was a pretty crusty bike, but the engine is free and it gets spark so it will run. Was able to rebuild the carbs, strip the frame and paint it, clean the forks, clean up the engine, rear shocks. Waiting on some parts and need to get the wheels blasted and powder coated this week.

Getting a little progress done on this bike. Although with the weather being nice I have been out on the other bikes still. Mid 60's this weekend so the work will be minimal again I'm sure.

This is what she looked like when I got it

Was able to get some work done to this bike for the past couple of days. Got everything back together and all new wiring run for kick only, but found there was no spark. Points are shot in it so I have some new ones ordered so we'll wait for a few days and get it running next weekend hopefully. This is where it's at now. Going to be a fun little bike and hope to use it on the track

A short clip of the progress so far

IT HAS LIFE!! What a great sound to hear that bike fire up after a total rebuild on the engine. The rest is just cosmetic things like paint and then hooking the controls up. Going to take it for a quick spin around the block tonight. Anyone use the weld in baffles? Going to get some I think and weld them up.

Here is a video of the first start off the kicker. Wired for kick only

Nice, quick turnaround on that poor old scoot. Keep it up, man.

Almost have it done. I need to finish the seat, swap the rear wheel out for a clean one, new rubber and she is ready to go.
