Hi Guys,
New to this forum, and new to bike building so here goes!
Bit about me, Ive ridden bikes for the last ten years or so (since i was 12/13) And have owned a bike nearly constantly since then, but now fancy having a go at building a cafe sytle bike. I bought a box of bits from someone on another forum for a good price, and in this I got a cj360 frame, and a cb 250 frame, as well as 2 CJ360 engines and CB 360 engine. as well as some forks, swing arms wheels clocks etc. I have just about enough to put one bike together at the minute, and it wouldnt need much more to get 2 bikes out of the bits.
I want to get the engines running, and get one bike together to have to ride, then with one of the engines, will try do some mods and upgrades to get some extra power from it and put together another bike with it.
So basically Id like to start out getting one of the CJ engines going, then do the CB engine at a later date.
What are the bits I need to look at to make sure its going to start up properly, I imagine an ignition upgrade is recommended? Is there anything in particular that needs looking at?
Thanks in advance!
