Been Around the Block
I traded some used tires that were taking up space for this 1982 CM250. This is what it looked like when I unloaded it.
That's a straight bar. It's a little uncomfortable. A drag bar will probably happen. Maybe a riser with 3" pull back.
But first, the wiring.
I spent too much time being overly meticulous with the wiring. But it looks good now, and I don't have to worry about a fire. 8)
She runs. Although only for a few seconds from ether. Cleaned the varnish from the carb, but the tank still has light surface rust and rank fuel. New plugs, plug caps (wire ends), fork seals, and fresh oil.
I need to have a new front brake cable made, new throttle cables, clutch lever, rear brake shoes, battery, and seat.
I also plan on running a two tail lights/turn signal set up. this is the bike my wife will learn on while I finish her dipped in chrome request.
me: "Baby, let's de-chrome it." wife: "But I like chrome, I want more." Nearly $3000 of custom chrome and I'm still not done with "her first bike". That on is an 86 rebel BTW
When I get this running, she can drop it all she wants.
