Real bikes are built in garages.
Re: 71 CL350 Cafe Time for the build thread!
HAHA, ok, right now I'm getting a good laugh at myself. At no point in time did I think to measure the length of the front forks. So last night I got my rear tire on and was stoked at how she looked. My friend came over and said "that's bad ass! Let's mock it up with the front wheel and see she sits". So we did and the front was SUPER tall. Turns out these EX500 forks are 31.5 inches as opposed to stock 28 inches. So I have to drop the front end a few inches and that is impossible with the stock EX500 bars. So, currently I'm on the look out for some 37mm clip ons. I guess in the back of my mind that's what I really wanted anyway.
