Why are these not wrapped in black yet? ;D

As others have said, that is a very nice looking bike. In particular, I really like the tank and the headlight. Looks like you've got some beautiful countryside to ride over there, too.

Love the air filter tubes, whatever the hell they're called. Bike looks really cool. I'm sure it'd be a great around town bike.

Re: My '73 CL350 Damn man, this is really depressing me. Last I saw this bike it was untouched, and so was mine. Now yours is starting to look great and mine is, well, still untouched. You did an amazing job with that seat, by the way. Bike's looking very nice.

I've considered placing a small battery under the cafe seat, but I'm not sure how I would access it. Perhaps you could place a hinge on one side so that it flips up?

Sorry, it's been a bit since I've been on here. Just made my way over to the Tanks and Seats forum and discovered that it is indeed an XS360 tank. Looks great. It's really encouraging me to get back out and work on my bike. Did you ever think about attaching the cafe seat directly to the frame...

Lookin' good! Can you give us some info on the seat you fabbed up? What is that tank from? I'm chopping up an XS360 tank for a seat, and it looks a lot like yours.

Re: FUCK ME That's the beauty of the asterisk. Now, he could mean fack, feck, fick, fock and sometimes fyck. ;D

I like how you wrapped both pipes together. I'd never seen that before, but I'm quit e the newb in the motorcycle world. Got the same pipes on my CL350 though. Looks good.

I'm not big on the retro look, but I like it on this bike. It's got a lot of character to it. I'm specifically digging the rear cowl.

I really like where you're heading with this project, in particular your paint scheme. I had something similar planned for my '68 CL350 tank (same style), except I was going to contrast gloss black with satin black. Yours is looking really good, I'll keep watching.

Re: My '73 CL350 Same here, chopping up a '68 CL350. Looking forward to following the project.

Re: FUCK ME I find the topic pretty applicable, so long as you stare at thebronze's avatar instead of actually reading the thread. Which, coincidentally, is what I've been doing for the last 23 minutes and counting. :o

Hey, welcome to the board. I'm somewhat of a newb myself, especially to bikes. I've also got a CL350 ('68) that I picked up for free. Right now I've got it completely disassembled, and I've got quite a task ahead of me. I'll be looking to this post and some of the other CL350s for inspiration...

Thanks for posting this TonUp, I'm considering doing it on a plethora of parts at once, perhaps in one of those cheap kiddie pools. I do have a strange fear of electricity, so I'm going to read up on the process very carefully before moving on with it. Love to see some pics when you get a...
