Came in last night...
- Mikuni Carbs
- ARD Magneto
- Custom Grider forks
- Newly rebuilt Triumph T120 650 Motor...
All the goodies..
The plans:
Gonna remove the tank and put my BSA 650 Tank on it
Gonna put 1 inch drag bars
Gonna put a rear white wall tire..
Custom build a rear tail-light using a 59 Caddy tail light...
Anyone want to buy the 74 harley tank from this bike?
So I pulled the tank off it put a 69 T120 tank on it
- the blus T120 tank is going to a body shop to get sand blastd to bare metal.. then clear coated...
Pulled the rear wheel to put on a white walled tire...
a 19 inch front wheel is going on it today..
Pulled the clubman bars and put a set or drag bars..
Rear fender and front 19inch rim is gonna get painted black
Really big difference already. Progress for sure. There are very few frisco mounted tanks that I like anyhow. this tank and the way its mounted looks much better, imo. I was liking that rootbeer color though. I think clearcoated bare metal will be awesome too. Just noticed that looks like my same seat. Will the new 19 be a spool too?
Looking really good. Keep at it.
bike looks way better that before.
love the drag bars, can't wait to see what happens next. i have a little new project my self, traded my cd175 cafe for a cb500. just wondering if you have any parts laying around for it at your shop????
any way, looking good. whats the plan after its done?
later.
The tank looks way better than the hemroid that was stuck on it before. The bars look better....but not much. A set of lower rise standard bars would look way better imo. They would at least match the look, and flow of the bike. I'm not a chopper, nor bob fan, but that one could look pretty cool with the right parts. I wouldn't clear coat the bare metal. That's been done before by all the Marlborough man copycats. Instead let it rust a bit before clearing, or suede it.
Well hey!!. Id be happy to take you up on your offer!!..
Im not 100% on the bars yet so Im still open to suggestions!!..
Let me know how I can get intouch with your buddy!
I didn't get back to check this till now, but I sent them up there with him anyway cause he was leaving early this morning.
I'll give him a phone call and let him know you'll be getting ahold of him and then I'll shoot you his contact info. He lives in that new building across from the globe and mail. Concord Place, I think?

like the look with the new bars and rear tire.
its coming together really well.
what paint if any are you going with?
any way, good stuff, love the stance.

Thanks man.. naw.. Im not gonna paint it..
Actually I'll just clear coat the tank with Por-15 PC Glisten then slapp the knee pad rubbers & Triumph tank badges on..
Im still not convinced about the bars... I want them lower.. mabe put shorter risers on...
I love the lines and stance on that sucker. I can easily go with your concept except the bars. I wouldn't go any lower. I think they look pretty sleek just like that.
It combines bobber tough with racer smooth pretty nicely IMO. Keep it up.
