Project Parts Bike 74 CB 360 cafe racer?

[AaronW]

I figured I better start a build post on my project. This is a 74 cb360 I bought oh about 10 years ago. Initially I bought it as a parts bike I was building a CB450 bobber and got this for 50 bucks. Well I sold the 450 and this sat in the shed for the last 8 years or so. I finally got the urge to start on a bike project again. So here it is.
At first all I want to do is get it running, well today I did. So far all I've done is clean and set the points and clean the carbs. I need a TON of stuff for this bike but after rebuilding a petcock I got it to fire up today. Surprised the shit outta me. I figured the timing would be off or something. Anyway now it's time to start tearing it down and find the cafe in the parts bike!

Here are some pictures and a quick video I took on my iphone, aint she a beaut!

Got some more work done on the bike. Removed some bits and got the new bars on. That was a bitch. Then I cut an old tank in half to start the seat build. Hey I didn't blow up!

I put the rear of the tank on the seat pan. If you squint you can see a seat haha.

Next is to work on the seat and clean up the frame some.
