Topic: my non SOHC Honda and her new lil' sister...

Hey all. I havent been on much since I got rid of my CB500k1, but Ive been busy in the garage on my 71CB350. Its a poor mans attempt at a kinda/sorta racer tribute bike. I know the "patina'd" look isnt for everyone, but Im digging it and the titles in my name so...
The beginning (it wasnt as nice as the pic makes it seem...):


Now:




Still need to wrap the motor up, and fit the rearsets (from an '07 GSXR600). Should be finished in a month or so.

New toy. '72 Suzuki T250 Hustler. Picked it up about a year ago for a friend for $50. He sold it to another friend who tore it apart, than quit on the little beast. Now its mine. Have to get a title before I do anything with her. PO got it from some crazy hillbilly who had it for 15+ years and never had a title. He was going to use it as a dirtbike. Glad I got to it before that happened. As you can see, It will be a longterm project...

  Nice! Looks like you have enough to keep you busy for awhile.
  Keep us posted with the Progress updates and pictures, as you can,
  okay? I can't imagine, in this day and time, someone thinking of using
  that Suzuki for a Dirt Bike"! Glad You got hold of THAT one!

Thanks! Ill keep ya updated. You should've seen te folks I picked the 'zuki up from... I guess the hillbilly he got the bike from has a house full of old british and japanese bikes and parts. I begged and pleaded, but he wouldnt tell me where he lived.

       Doesn't that just figure? A possible "Gold Mine" and ya can't find out where it is! That's about the kind of luck I usually have too!
