O yeah, one more thing, the second side is always the biggest pain trying to make it match. For this bike I actually made a pattern out of vellum that I could lay on the other side to get a good general idea of how it needed to be. It was the first time I'd done it that way... usually I just look back and forth and take measurements here and there until it is close. Luckily no one can see both sides at the same time, so unless they are trying to see if it matches most people won't notice. ~stout
I decided to test out the fuel resistance of the Spray Max 2k, so I accidentally spilled some gas on it today. I wiped it off quickly, but it still looks great. If I'd have done the same thing with Dupli-color clear it would have started taking the paint off. So I'd give it 2 thumbs up for fuel resistence. - Stout
That bike is Rad. If thats a word. I would love to get that far with my bike. Love the looks. I want that seat. If you reproduce that I would buy it. Here is mine. Had it a few months. Laced a 21 inch wheel up front. done a few things but I have much more plans.
Needs a fork brace, forks are pretty flexy before you put wide bars and heavy tyres on.
Anyone who thinks stock CB350/360 forks are OK without a brace is kidding themselves and probably rides so slow they may as well walk.
It seems to be a particularly American aberration though, just about anywhere else in the world, people want stuff to actually WORK, not just 'LOOK KEWL' :
Actually I already planned on making some changes. She is a little squirly right now unless you are accelerating hard (since the weight is off the front end), but I don't get scared out that easily, so it is definitely faster than walking I had originally thought it felt like the trail was too short; I tried to soften the rear shocks to give it a little more sag in the rear, but it didn't really help. I would've lowered the forks in the trees, but they were already as far as they could go, so you're probably right.
I plan on cutting the bars down to help take away some of the leverage and might be adding a small front fender to it (my buddy wants something to help keep from getting rock chips anyway). So when I make that I'll beef it up with some steel rod to help get rid of the flex.
I would've done some of these things already, but unfortunately the bike is 3+ hours from me, so it has to wait until the next time we go back there.
now i don't know much about these bikes but i have a cl360 and i was wondering where you put your battery or if you just bypassed it all together. i don't mean to bring up a dead thread but i'm pretty curious because i'm working on trying to hide my battery or get rid of it if possible.
I used a smaller than stock AGM battery. It is mounted below the swingarm just in front of the rear tire. It is a pain to get in and out but you can hardly see it. - Stout
