K&N's on cb200

[stik70]

I'm starting to make a little progress on my cb200. I think I'm making enough progress to start a build thread next. Anyway, I am putting VM-20's on this and wanted to use large individual air cleaners. I am notching the frame and welding in a partial piece of pipe where i cut frame out.

When i finish it up, i'll get some better shots.

Looks alright, although it'll want to be a clean weld. You planning any extra reinforcement?

Cheers - boingk

You bet, i am going to fill in the factory hole and reinforce from the front side. When finished, it will be smooth. Thanks!

first i thought "this guy really chopped his fucking backbone for filters?"

then i realized that you actually were backing up the chop with reinforcement.

then i thought "what a nice fucking touch"

so i say to you, bravo.

Thanks man! Its gonna work out pretty sweet and its definately beefed up enough. I made some spacers on the lathe today for pegs/rear sets I'm building and hope to wrap up the seat pan next week.
