My New Project (Amber) 73 CB350 Four

found time on my day off to get the carbs rebuilt and polished. i also made a front drum stay and managed to build a new wiring harness with a dual phase rectifier.

Where did you go for your wheel spokes? I'm looking into lacing up a CB450 drum to a high shouldered aluminum rim so I'm looking at some custom lengths, just curious as to where you went.

the spokes i purchased from vintage ave. off ebay. i was a little hesitant at first but this is the third set i have purchased from them. it took about 2 weeks to arrive. quality is the same as honda NOS spokes. nothing beats buchnan spokes on quality, but you pay for it.

the paint i use on all my frames is single stage urethane. its chemical/fuel proof, and doesn't chip. bad news you have to have a HVLP gun. this i purchased from tcp global. they sell it under the restoration shop label. it also self levels well to fill in imperfections to make those honda welds look good. i also shoot all my hoops and bits with it. its no PPG, but for the price it kicks ass.
 
SHES ALIVE! just in time for halloween Amber roared to life. the 4 into 4 i welded up sounds sooooo sweet. pics coming soon but for now i'm going trick or treating with my son. happy halloween.
 
>:( son of a b&%ch, F*&^king fish eyes in the tank paint. now i have to sand it all off and repaint. this sucks...... >:(
 
The paint looks great. Very nice work. I'm still getting over your carbon fiber work. It all looks amazing.

IMO, the fork gaiters look a little long. They kind of bunch up at the bottom a bit. Were they for a dirtbike or something? They could probably be trimmed, but I'm not sure how you'd do that and secure them, just something that caught my eye. Even how they sit, the bike looks awesome.
