1977 CB750 Bobber project
« on: October 02, 2017, 08:59:01 AM »
Looking for some information on where to hide my electrical.  I have a voodoo cycles hardtail on order and i am prepping the bike to get it ready for the build. I have never tried to relocate the electrical systems and wiring before.  Ideas would be great thanks.

Is the back of the frame stretched
On Amen frame the electrical all went into a box that hung under the oil tank. One side came off to access everything.

The frame I am get is from voodoo cycles.  Are you saying oil tank on top then electrical box underneath.  I was kind of hoping to keep that area open except for the oil tank.

Thanks.  Just organizing materials.  Wanting to pull it off at a reasonable price.  My theory on these bikes is they will always be worth less then what you spend on them.

Build to keep and enjoy, not to sell, and you won't have this problem.
