So I traded my mildly modded RD350 for 2 rollers (CB360 & CL350) a donor 360 & 6 boxes of parts.

My plan is to start with the 360 w/trumpets on it since I verified compression.

These seats just wont do, guess I'll make one. But that'll come after I finish the frame, forks, tank, etc...

Tanks? I've got options. Think I'll go with the dirt colored one.

I'll have to modify the tunnel & the front frame stays. I plan on pulling everything apart & cleaning, greasing, painting, etc. I'm not sure if I'm going to run signals, gotta check the legallity. I'm sure if I got any static, I could sic the wife on em.

I've done straight forward builds before, but nothing that allowed me options. Here's a chance to see if I have any creativity at all. I'll try to post weekly or as progress develops.

Kansas. Had to ad the AK, it came in with the CBs/CL & $250. I think I got the best deal. But then again, the other fellers out riding & I'm tearing down.

Trade with Finnerander?
Ha Ha! Too right sir! Didn't know he was a member on here till he came by today to sell me a mower. Has he any posts? perhaps the start of a build thread you could point me at?
 
Got my 2 year old to help me strip her down.

I bit a fin cutting the starter off(Dont ask)

After I'm finished, I'm building up the CL

I'm going to mock up a seat pan(any tips?)next so I can cut off any unnecessary tabs on the frame before painting it.
 
Actually, I need tips for a seat pan, & ideas tips for a tank & headlight bucket. the red tank has a very narrow tunnel & some internal issues so if I found something else it would be great.
