nice progress. just bought the same bike ('73), I'm picking it up this weekend. I'll keep checking in. looking forward to the finish build.
 
This the first time I used 3M resine and its dries kidda clear, 4 layers on all the bends, 3 on the rest, once you have bondo'ed it, its plenty.

anyone have an easy (cheap) way to convert to 12 volt?
 
Not sure what you call easy but i have done the 12v conversion. I did a write up on my "big blue" build. (see link at bottom of post). I have not done it to the newer 125 like yours but it should be the same, i think just the top end of the motor changed.
You need a 350 twin stator and regulator as well as a 12v battery and lights.
 
Nice! you are alot farther along on your bike than I am on mine! I also want to do the 12v conversion on mine in the near future.
 
did a little work on the tree's and ugly cluster.

mounted a Suzuki GT380 blinker under the seat for a taillight, took the guts out of the stock taillight and mounted in the blinker and painted it wrinkle black, turned out pretty good.

dude that bike is sweet! love the tail light idea, the gauge and indicator lights, all awesome good stuff man
 
SICK bike!! i was wondering if the stock throttle on a cb175 is built into the handlebars? i have a CB100 with the stock throttle built into the handlebars and its making it very difficult to put on some clip on bars. If the cb175 throttle is built in how did you go bout it with your clip ons?
