CB360 - Monoshock Brat

[teazer]

That pipe really turned out looking good. Nice one. It works well with the overall look and the bars and tires.

I'm not feeling the color scheme, but to be honest I'm not sure what would work well. Are you going for Super Motard - street scrambler look, or more of a post "Pocky Clips" street fighter type look?

I LIKE THE BLACK, KEEPS IT CLEAN

Black is the worst colour for keeping things clean, shows every fingerprint, rain spot and anything else that touches it (I get white cars now but I still have one black bike ;D )
BTW, not quite what I meant about orange but I'm glad you did it (I was thinking more on the line of GTO)

 

[maduncle]

See - now i like the orange.

However you finish it, it is a kick arse part and will look cool.

 

[bluesmokey74]

I like the orange. It kind of reminds me of my old XR80...... I agree with everyone else though, it's gonna look cool no matter what you do. Nice Bike!

 

[bowman41]

That orange is fantastic

 

[VonYinzer]

Orange. All the way. Its rad, and honestly looks like something that may have come from the factory circa 1975.

 

[MotorbikeBruno]

I'm an orange fan as well.

 

[Finnigan]

Either one is pretty bad ass but I like the black

 

[Sonreir]

I say go with pink. Too few pink bikes on the road.

I really appreciate all the opinions and ideas, however ridiculous they may be . I'll most likely be sticking with the black theme. More to come this weekend.

Love the last pic. Now just add some airbrushed wolves and you'd be set!

 

[compoundcycles]

Got brakes.

 

[MotorbikeBruno]

Nice man! I love this bike ;D

 

[compoundcycles]

Started making a battery box. I'm going to mount it to the stock glove box mount with a couple L brackets I made with a hammer. I need to put the full weight of the of the bike on the shock so I can see where the swingarm will pivot to before I weld the box to the brackets.

You did cycle suspension to check clearance?
Nice to see you put battery in a fireproof box, following Boeing's lead? ;D
I just realised, I really NEED a CL brake pedal with the parts to make it work

 

[7aliveatlast7]

gosh, as if our bikes weren't similar enough, i JUST got a ballistics battery last week! went with the 8 cell, though.

I need to check clearance once I take the bike off the stand. The box might be fireproof now but by the time I'm done with it I'll probably have drilled some useless holes in it.

Nice. I hope mine has enough juice. I compared cold cranking amps to the stock battery before I ordered it. But, its just so darn small.

 

[Brodie]

Damn nice battery box. I have been toying with ideas for under my seat but they all became to complicated to fast. I have the same battery for my 250 but was tossing up between it and the 6cell. At lest I feel a bit better knowing you grabbed the same for a 360. I might have a go at your battery box idea and see how it looks. Cardboard first of course. Ohh and bloody beautiful exhaust work!

 

[compoundcycles]

Starter installed. Leg guard painted black. Chain ready to fit. Grips on. Muffler clamped to exhaust. I got some screws that fix the honda badges back straight. I'm getting the front brake line fixed on Monday and I should be receiving another package from DCC with misc electronics to get her started. I hope to ride around the block next Sunday. Then onto lighting.

 

[trek97]

its just plain neat.
