Fiiiine, I won't change the seat if someone has a CL450 seat pan they might sell me???

I have a 1972 CB450 seat pan, can put up a picture later if you'd like. The seat is torn up but its the original seat pan.

CB seat pan is 3" shorter at the front.

CB seat pan is 3" shorter at the front.

Well then never mind that. I wasn't sure if they were compatible or not.

I'd swap you my original CL450 seat for that brown leather one. Or maybe I should just make my own. I love where you are headed with this build!

 

[milehighcj360t]

slight revision in color, going to paint today!

If you're going to change to white grips would you be looking at selling the caramel posh grips?

 

[Hoosier Daddy]

I could never be able to keep white grips "white".
Your color choices gives it a JPS vibe... I like it.

 

[milehighcj360t]

sorry but i'll be keeping the posh grips, not sure if i'm switching to white grips yet or not.

 

[milehighcj360t]

it would be awesome to add something like this to my bike...

A tender kiss? Easy, go out to the garage and lay one on her.

I thought he meant a greasy biker.

And Henry's the motorcycle.

I wonder if it's the "Mood Ring" on the frame?

 

[milehighcj360t]

just thinking, it would be rather cool...i think i can make one better, plus i typically just smoke a joint while riding, no sense pulling over and sticking your face on the asspad... Here is the final paint scheme, dropped it off yesterday. Top will be satin dark grey, metallic fleck stripes, gloss black bottom...yeah 70s.

I wonder if it's the "Mood Ring" on the frame?

It's a pipe. For the love of god, people. It's a fucking pipe.

 

[shamus]

Not bad. Every time I hot knife heroin off my headers, I'm always thinking "There has got to be a better way."

 

[milehighcj360t]

i always knew you were a heroin junkie shamus. smoke weed, you'll live longer.

 

[Hoosier Daddy]

So if some one sits on the seat... is it a power hitter?

 

[milehighcj360t]

tank has been painted, seat is at the upholsterer, stripped and painted the frame, taking the motor to the machinist this week. Things are coming together.
