Hello everyone! I'm new to the Honda twins and wanted to post my build here. I also have my build posted on other forums but figured I would try this one out.
I sold my Harley (2000 Dyna Wide Glide I cut up a little) when my back went out and didn't think I would ever be able to ride again. Fast forward 6 years, and after a spinal fusion, I'm ready to go. I didn't know what kind of motorcycle I wanted and didn't want to buy a bike just to buy one. After seeing Slipstream's CL350 scrambler build, I knew it was the bike for me.
SO... I recently purchased a basket-case with a title for $300. The guy I bought it from had a really nice restored 72' CL350 that I was ready to buy when my wife seen he had a pile of parts for sale as well. She said, "why don't you try and negotiate the price to get all these extra parts with the bike!" I have a budget of $2500, so I chose the pile of parts instead. I have a hard time cutting up old vehicles if they are in good shape and with that in mind, these was the best option. I have allot of pics and I don't have it up and running yet, but here is my progress from start to current state.
Here it is how I purchased it...
