Squirley, did you ever figure out a way to activate your choke? I didn't like the stock set up on the triples since I wasn't going to have turn signals or anything. I went with this set up, a one finger pull, it's clean and you can hardly see it. I have it angled down under the clutch lever. Just purchase the left side one. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00475PMZ2/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1?pf_rd_p=1535523722&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B005KXAPGG&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0NAEGJQY9FWC74K0SN21

Man! I feel like I looked long and hard for a simple handlebar choke setup and I didn't find a thing! Guess I didn't look hard enough. I ended up just using the single carb pull levers and am currently making an activation bar that will tie them all together and turn them on in one movement. In the end, I think this will be better for my setup, I like the look better with not having three choke cables. Thanks for the link though, Im sure I will use this on another project!

this thing is so awesome, I loved your CB550 build and took a lot of inspiration from it....would love to see more pics of the two bikes together!
 
TZ seat is 100X's better than the bubble seat. I personally can't stand the plainness of the bubble seat.
 
Ok, the video was totally worth getting in trouble for at work! We aren't allowed to download or stream anything and 99.99% it's blocked but for some reason it isn't this morning! Bose headphones really made it sound like I was there with you! Bad ass bike! You do all that in your little one car garage?
 
Haha, I should have said the video clip was going to be loud!

Most of the the work on my last two bikes was done in my small garage...a 4.5" grinder is a mans best friend! Finally have put a legitimate shop together, so I'm looking forward to making some high quality parts in my spare time!

Thanks again guys for the kind words and for the support for BOTM, you guys are awesome!
