The Bad Ass Cafe Racer is a work in progress....With better information on hand, you can redo some of the previous artwork.

If I can be candid, I would recommend an older vacuum hose, the cloth braided ones. They have that old fashioned look, yet work as well as the newer ones. If fact, the older hose was smooth inside, not corrugated. Smoother for more Bad Ass air flow!

Something like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Eureka-Model-500-vacuum-cleaner-fabric-hose/141269587308?_trksid=p2047675.c100011.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222006%26algo%3DSIC.FITP%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D21235%26meid%3D6739423367895237537%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D9374%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D10%26sd%3D131171256051

I bet Aunt Zelda still has one in her basement somewhere...
 
Plus, think how truly Bad Ass that vacuum hose will look matched up with tan pipe wrap - matching intake and exhaust is just the epitome of sensible and functional design. Gorgeous.
 
The vacuum hose is actually designed to suck the air in so imagine just how much air gets into the engine :eek: He probably just removed the jets altogether to get the fueling right. ;D ;D

The ad says $130....Is that what he is paying to have it removed from his property?

Kinda looks like a frog trying to fuck a turtle. Granted, later CB450s usually aren't worth the cost of the fuel to haul them for scrap, but, damn...

How about moving some of the shit in your garage and taking a decent picture so we can see the bike
 
Shit. Fuck. Hell. Damn. I hate having no money when shit like this comes up. Would probably make a sweet daily with a little effort.

That's one goofy looking bike. I am amazed at what some people are willing to call professional.

Absolute steal. If that was local, it'd already be in my garage. They are so easy to work on. The last one I had sat in the Peterson for close to two decades. rebuilt the carbs. and fired right off......
 
Thought you guys might be bored and need somebody to mess with.... I included e-mail address...

Hello,
This 2006 Harley-Davidson Softail Springer , runs and drives excellent. This bike has been extremely well maintained with a full service history, 127 miles,The bike has all books, complete set of tools and keys. Everything works in the bike... It has no leaks or drips, slightly used in 100% working and looking conditions with a clear title free of liens.

I bought it when I was serving in U.S. Army Garrison Fort Huachuca, AZ and now I am deployed in Athens, Greece. The bike will be delivered from Fort Huachuca, AZ , is stored in a military compound.

I have dropped my price to $2,930 (purchase price) including delivery and handling to your address , since this is an Urgent Sale, will be delivered free of charge through a military transportation service to a designated location of your choice, average delivery time is 3-5 business days, depending on destination. It has been reduced because I need to find a buyer before my next deployment take place and I don't want to waste more time negotiating.

If you're interested to conclude this purchase in a timely manner email me your: Full Name , Shipping Address and Phone Number, to open a case with Google Wallet. They will contact you to explain the entire procedure. The financial part will be managed by them, which means that you will have a 15 days inspection period before committing to buy the bike. Using Google Wallet service we are both 100% covered during the steps of this transaction.

Hope to hear from you soon!
