Not sure what I've done to deserve the generousity of some pals here in town..... Just bought this: ....to build a 2005 Buell XB12R around. Had a 9r for 7 years......always regret getting rid of it. A pal of mine had owned several 12r's (one of which belonged to a buddy who passed away a...

Um....really need to visit this forum more often---- Totally thrilled to have the wee 400F nominated----thanks SO much Goldy. And feeling a little embarrassed to have been oblivious to the whole thing!! Congrats too ----to Farmer and Trek97 ---- both beautiful builds. And thirdly, but by...

Been kinda lucky in July!! Thing 1: This was sitting under a for sale sign on the side of the road. Didn't take long to decide to put it in the back of the truck. 1972 Kawasaki MT1....75cc oil injected 2 stroke. It's only ever going to be a cottage toy, but I can't help myself----already...

Re: Project two---a CB400F I've been lazy....especially with posting here! Thanks for the prod Chuck. I've got lots of pics, but I'll try to be brief. Since the last post, shoved most of the original wiring harness back onto the bike...the original fusebox was sketchy, so ended up...
