Sweet!

Stupid Sportster


It has taken way too long to get this thing done. It's so close now, I just need a battery and a little carb adjustment. I changed the tank and some other crap. After the oil pump went out and the carb has been rebuilt a few times it's finally ready.

Live music at work.

So a buddy of my boss is in the band Split Lip Rayfield. His son was getting tattooed and he brought his guitar along and played us a few of his new songs. It was a good day.

New shop shirts. Keeping it 70's.

CL450


I Started to tear down my CL450 this weekend. I'm still waiting for a belt from J&P for the Sportster(cause they are dishonest scumbags), so I decided the stock Honda would look better in pieces on the ground. I had to extract every screw from the clutch cover because they were stripped (by me). It was almost funny, almost. I got inside the clutch and soon realized my problem. The clutch was not engaging enough, so it was not shifting correctly. I found the culprit, so hopefully I can find or make a piece to fix it. While the bike is apart I may as well change it up. I'm thinking Japanese all the way. I plan on taking my insperation from the Bratstyle bikes from Japan. It should be a fun little built.

A little more progress




Changed the paint yet again. Still waiting on a few pieces and parts.

Soon.....

I will be turning a 1971 Honda CL450 into something like this. I just have to fix the clutch issue.
