The taillight is a cheapo one from ebay. I welded the bracket to the rear hoop and then just ran the wires underneath. I really want one of the little strip led lights than I've seen on a few bike so I can mount it inside the tubing, but I can't for the life of me figure out where to buy one.
Well the CB360 is almost done. It's been a while since I posted on it so I'll try to catch you up in one shot. I seemed to work out all the small stuff that goes along with building a bike. Got the light mounted and the brakes all sorted out. I needed to tackle a seat so I got out the sheet and started pounding away. got it all pounded out and took it and some ostrich skin I had at the house to a local upholstery shop. They did a killer job and the color really compliments the bike.
Once that was done, I had a horrible time trying to get it running right. I sent my carbs off to CrazyPJ . I still have the cheap pods on but will be upgrading to some better filters soon.
My buddy Dallas stopped by one day and I told him that I really needed a set of mufflers to get the exhaust extended past the rear axle and quiet the beast down. He just happened to have a set of Harley take offs in back of his truck. A little cutting and welding later and I had them mounted up.
Now that the bike is all together and my pipes and carbs are done, I've been running it a bit and have some new issues. 1. It will surge initially and stay elevated. That may be an advancer issue so I need to check that. 2. It's also hissing some oil out the seal at the kicker. That worries me in that it may not be getting enough oil flow so I'm gonna make sure it's getting oil in the top end, check the breather and replace that seal.
I'm good with fabrication and mediocre at motor work so trying to figure these things out are always super frustrating to me. Especially being pretty remote in Boise, I don't have a large community of bike guys here to help me out.
