    Show off your ride be it crappy or awesome!

    Here's my grandma car


    But here's my baby
    1971 Honda CB350


    I also just got this little guy last week
    1972 Honda CL100
    (it's mainly for my girlfriend to ride but I want to turn it in to a cafe racer)


    Even if it's a bicycle if that's your main ride.
    SHOW IT.

    Man, I want a Honda like yours so bad but I'd probably look ridiculous riding around on one.
  • uzi on Mar 10, 2011
     
    That Honda is beautiful, especially the green one. I'd like to own a motorcycle but over here if the road won't kill you, the heat and pollution will.

    On the lookout for just the right one of these. Hopefully by summer I'll find the perfect one.

    NIIIIIICE!!! how much did you pay for it if you don't mind me asking?
  • ClintAbyss on Mar 29, 2011
     
    haha, I got it for 300 from a guy who thought it was not rideable, turns out it just need a rebuild kit in the master cyl. for the front brake.
  • HORSEBITES on Mar 29, 2011
     
    Whoa that rules! Did it come with a title too??
    Please keep posting with updates!

    More progress on my little CL100

    Ripped off the fenders, rear turn signals, rear brake light, sideviews and side covers.
    Next up is getting a new carb and taking out the air box and getting a small gel battery to stash up in the seat so it will have a nice gap under the seat to see through. Then some 1/2" tracker bars that I'm gonna flip upside down for bars. Maybe shave off the ends so it's stubby.
    Stoked!
  • ClintAbyss on Mar 29, 2011
     
    get a pair of clubman bars or clip ons instead for sure haha. my latest addition is custom machined rear sets, and im working on fiber glassing a seat from square one.

    Nah everyone has those, I wanna do it a little different and get something with more of a stretch since it's such a small bike. Can't wait to see your next pics though!

    not to much progress this weekend, I was more focused on my shirt launch over the weekend. ( http://abyss.storenvy.com ) had a decent sized party that whent great.

    but back to the bike,

    my current project is making a 1 person seat, still trying to figure out how to make a decent seat pan since i moved all my elctronics to under the seat, but to acheive the shape I used my gas tank as a mold,

    wrapped in aluminum foil,
    Image and video hosting by TinyPicnext came the fiberglass sheets, and resin

    let it dry.

    my plan is to use this as peice of my mold when I make the actual seat.

    I think the motorcycle bug has bitten me. I'm looking to pick up a Honda CB750. Found a cool one locally on CL but haven't heard back yet, so who knows.

    oh snap! good luck.

    Picking this up tomorrow afternoon. Think I'm going to put a cafe seat on it as well as different bars and mirrors. Might ditch the lights too.

  • Geoff May on Apr 13, 2011
     
    Damn. TinyGrab isn't working. Hosted on my server.

    At any rate, it's an '82 Honday CB650. By "ditching the lights" I meant turn signals. Whatevs.

    Seriously, this thread is worse than the taco thread, I want a bike now, looking to get one soon.

    that fuckin rules Geoff. i don't totally care for the cafe look myself, but but the more flat track / brat look is amazing to me.

    this is a CB750 but you get the idea. pretty easy to make them amazing looking

    I kinda want a pseudo-cafe look. I'd like a one person seat and the stubby back end. The bars that are on it now are already pretty low, so I might just leave them.

    I think I'd like the whole ride to be flat black. Might be a fun project in the winter. First I need to learn how to ride the thing!
