Oh o.k. It's gotten to where I don't bother with reproductions anymore after getting several that didn't fit or were very poor quality, unless they come from Yamiya, but those cost an arm and a leg. I could come down on price, shoot me a number if you want.
I'll tell my buddies with 550s. I also have a 550 myself, but they are not really my style. Try one of the chopper/bobber websites, they love this kind of stuff. How do they mount by the way?
Not bent, no dents, rust on the back. Both come with great reflectors, boot lock rings, and rubber bumpers. Would be good for you since I believe you said you were going to paint them. $75 plus $18 shipping.
Scramblers, by the way, were off road versions off existing street bikes before duel sport bikes existed. Honda, for example, took a CB350 and added beefed up forks and rear shocks, high pipes and semi-knobby tires and made a bike that was passably off road capable. It became the CL350 with...
After some good advice on a couple of different forums, I finally got it through my head to work out the asthetics first and not to worry so much about increasing the power right off the bat. Engine tuning is something that is a long hard earned process. Decide your basic layout first, and worry...

Lol...I'm just giving you shit for fun! I'll be the first one to tell you it's your bike, and you do exactly what you want to with it. Don't let anyone talk you out of your vision, or to change your mind just to conform to the "norm". Just be aware though, duel sport, or "scrambler" tires are...
That's a lot of miles to me. If you could get documentation on the rebuild to see how extensive it was, that would be great. But, it might have just been a shade tree rebuild, you never know. Price it on the low side, and maybe think about looking at another bike. You don't want to inherit a ton...
I don't have any idea on price, what would you think? Also I really only need the tank, would you be willing to sell it by itself? I have a stock 1972 CB750K tank in great shape, would you be interested in a trade. I'm Close to Birmingham Alabama, so I could drive over and pick it up to keep you...
I got my last one from Jegs. WWW.JEGS.COM The brand was Dorman, it was made of brass and nicely finished, no flashing on the inside to restrict fuel flow.
On the forum page under "General Discussion", there should be a section called "The Debating Floor" just for this kind of conversation...LOL...that way the moderator could move threads that get out of hand there. :wink2:
