New fueltank for classic endurance racing
(needs new seat, clip ons and a fairing of course)

Actually, I dig the superbike bars.

 

[scm]

thx, but they're slower than clipons, approx. 2s on a normal track (2.5mls).

Added air resistance from a more upright stance?

 

[scm]

Yeah, you're a lot faster on straights with clipons compared
to handlebars (even if you ride flattrack style). I also have
the impression that they make me ride smoother...
But the superbike handlebars make cornering more fun,
they provide maximum control. Would always be my first
choice for street riding, though they don't look very cafeish.
Nevermind, look at least a little tracky...

Btw., I like that little Mazda!


Kind regards

Haven't posted much but I'm too stoked about this to not post it. After a 25+ year lapse I'm taking up guitar again and seeing as I have a bit more money now in my 40's than I did in my teens, I bought a 1/2 decent guitar to play with.

Got it 2nd hand with a hard case, Sperzel tuners, Gretsch Filtertron pickups and a Compton stainless bridge installed, all for the same price as a new one. She's pretty spanky. Now if I only knew how to play

Will post up a proper pick of the actual guitar when I have a chance but it looks like this:

Nice Tim, now you can pack that up and bring it to Barber for around the campfire!

Diggin' That Mazda.

Are those aftermarket BBS or the factory 2nd gen RX7 vert. wheels? They both look the same, I'm just curious. I've got a set of the vert. rims on my RX7 and they look identical.

You have good taste

Picked up a set of aluminum wheels with stainless spokes, supposedly off a CB550 or CB450. Nipples are rusted. Both hoops are 18". Deal included a 74 CB450 tank and side covers, a CB550 cover, crash bar, and a CB550 headstock. Seller says he's got the title somewhere too, I hope he can find it. All for $95!

 

[DrJ]

Good score on the alloy wheels. Aluminum rims are a must for a proper cafe.

 

[OpTiCz]

For my stainless lines I'm making for my oil tank.

I was having problems removing the slides out of carb bodies on my roommates gl1100. So I decided to try and hunt up another set. I found a set on CL for $250 and they came with a complete 82 gl1100 aspencade.

Any one need any parts?

 

[JRK5892]

I may! i have the GL carbs all torn down recplaceing the gaskets

 

[lingo]

Joe how common were the vented rotors on the GLs?

 

[JRK5892]

? not really sure what you are talking about pics?

 

[lingo]

The rotors are vented like on a car.

like the one on the right.
