Check out that speedo mount. Definitely worth the 2250$.

Re: '76 RD400c -- 2smoker "Ginger" Stache, what is this bike like at higher speeds? 50-60 mph range. Does it feel like the 2 stroke is working hard, smooth, loud? theres a local RD I'm thinking about picking up. I really like two strokes in dirtbikes, yz etc, but never trail rode it like a...

That looks like a nut buster lol sweet key chain deal, I got my smallest gear on my old cassette from my DH bike as mine on my truck key set

Hey, glad I could help. How's everything going now? any updates?

Nope, 3 phase doesn't care how it's wired as long as all three are connected. How do these bikes handle "stock" compared to like a CX or CB of similar size? They must feel pretty heavy?

That has to be a damn joke ad... just unreal. The post I made a bit up: The bike was defintly someones projects, they saw what they wanted to do and did it. Trouble is, I can't tell what they were trying to do. Like above said, there's quite a mix mach of parts, but at the time, it worked for...

Re: 71 Indignant CB175 - In the midst of painting! Lol that's alright man, that's what that spot putty is for. It definitely comes down to prep at the bondo point before that, though. I try to finish at 180 grit, but end up working finer grain after primer, then do another coat of primer and...

Re: 71 Indignant CB175 - In the midst of painting! Hey bud, don't let the one blemish on the tank discourage you too much. I've had quite a few paint screw ups over my projects, but just figure - if you can do it once, you can do it again. Great build, keep at it man.

Nicely done and great follow thru. College definitely limits the money flow for projects. How is the wrap holding up? I've seen it done on some local trucks. It doesn't seem to hold up wheel around wheel wells and high friction zones due to rocks and what have you

Re: '76 RD400c -- 2smoker Such a clean bike... Was this from a collection, or just a extremely luck find? What are you plans with it? Nice pics on the carbs - probably not just using a iPhone or something I take it? lol

You could def get into renewable if you get into like a solar company or a wind company. Wind farms definitely need managers for on the ground, not just technicians. It's definitely a cool filed that is changing every day, thats for sure. Mike

I think you can still get basic vans .. like Ford Transit. Honest to God, I see one in my future by the time I'm 30. You could sleep in it, tools on the walls, open bed all enclosed. Moto would fit perfect, spare space. Sweet long haul vehicle potentially.

That's a sweet bike there on pipeburn. I'd love to do something like this after my CX. Great start, looks like at this pace it'll be done for the Fall sem. What are you studying? I'm going into my Jr yr, renewable energy. Motorcycle parking is definitely the best.

Totally caught me off guard last week as well... Makes sense having everything in there though, kind of. Definetly shows how nothing is "exact". I'm sure every harness was a little different, variable lengths, etc. Sucky but I'm sure you could organize it a bit.

Amazing site, quality work on there. Shows there are still artisans out there. Did you have any formal training or just taught by family or on the job? Schooling? I'll put up some pics of a few rifle cases I've made, nothing special. Need to find a decent pic ...

Hey Welcome, I'm bout a hr south of you near the wind turbines. Pretty cool seeing more WNY on here. Sweet bike ride safe

Hahah they just have some major soul into them just like bikes of the same area. the 60s and 70s were awesome on the commerical side of things, I definitely was born in the wrong era. Sorry to derail the topic, Anyone else have any projects? Boats? Bunkers? Woodworking? I'll put up some of my...

Yeah man these old sleds are brutes... They sure take one heck of a beating being that they are full steel tunnel/frame. My front end in the engine bay took some massive hits over the years. Pulled out some huge dents. The tunnel was all torqued and twisted, so took a fair bit of heat and...

Sorry for late reply, Gotchya on the forks, makes sense. They really haven't changed much in those few years. Pretty cool how a lot of these parts are interchangeable to an extent. I've seen that fork brace on a few other bikes on other forums, they seem to work well. Yours looks great. Nice...
