1975 CB125 Tracker project

I converted the front signals to 6V LED. Need tondo the rears and then see if the LED flasher makes them flash. So far they light solid and beep.

The headlight looks nice

It’s coming together nicely!

Thanks guys, I need to bleed the brake but lost my syringe. Picked up a new one and hope to get at it tonight. The signals will flash if there is one incandescent bulb in the mix. I am hoping when the idiot lights arrive and I get them wired that will be enough to make the flasher work, If not I will get some resisters. All that is left to make it ridable is to mount the exhaust back up and the carb. Then paint the tank and make the side bags. Getting so close, it will be ready for a test ride as soon as the weather breaks, May need a temp tank to do it but can't wait to test ride this thing.

Forgot pic of rear signals mounted.

Also, I think I am missing a few sockets LOL. ^^ caught someone borrowing some in the picture.

Those blinkers are a really sharp replacement for the stock units, I really like those. This little scamp is coming along really nice man.

Thanks. I like them too. Look almost OEM but not near as big even though they are only a few MM smaller Diameter. Trying to find 6V signals was not going to happen so converting these was the only real choice.

Starting early on the 10mm collection.

Didn't do pics but we got the brake filled, used a 2 stroke oil syringe. Filled from caliper to master. One fill and have working front brake. I wired in the pressure brake switch and after getting it wrong realized my mistake and brake lights perfect now. Once the dash LEDs come and we wire those in all that is left is tank paint and side cover bags and its done! Mount carb and exhaust and wait for painting weather.

Small update. I've mounted the carb, wired inside the bucket for the LED idiot lights we are still waiting for. Guarenteed by Apr 27! Anyway it's a paint job and side bags away from done. Going to work on the tank prep this weekend as we are looking like mid next week to have temps high enouhh to prime and paint. Clear will have to wait for even warmer. So very close to test ride as soon as snow goes away.

Sanding and fixing tank

 

[Maritime]

Larger dent needs another coat. Small ones are all smooth except for one I'll put a touch of spot putty for a few little pin holes in the filler.

 

[Maritime]

Was able to get a glide coat. Pin holes in the large dent the rest dissappeared. My spot putty is bad so need some new.

 

[Maritime]

Screw the spot putty. Had me some jb weld.

 

[Sderbyshire]

Way to go !

I have yet to see success with Bondo spot putty. JB Weld FTW!
