Cleaning The Bobber



As you can see I have chopped the rear section off of the Honda. I obtained a peanut tank which needs some work ($20). I removed a lot more parts and pieces. I also gathered up a new throttle and brake lever from an old Yamaha Seca. The new handle bars are from a Dirt Bike. I am still undecided as to chop and extend the Swing Arm or not. The stays will be solid and should be in soon. I completely cleaned the engine and sanded it down. I covered it with Zinc and then applied $7.00 worth of high heat engine paint Old Ford blue (the original color of the bike was blue) because Honda blue was not available. I sanded down some of the fins on the engine in my spare time tonight. I am still waiting for Pepper to finish up the badly damaged carbs. Could be a while. for now just going to weld her up.
