I have considered both of these angles. I think I might bite the bullet next week or two and get the plastic, get a petcock, and throw it on CL for 1500 and see what happens. If nothing, then it's a cheap toy. But I am running out of riding days quickly so I have time. Was 96 here today.
Thanks Red, I'll keep that in mind. Got a Muffler that'll fit? I haven't had any luck with that here. Also could use a stock carb...
And that was a nice CR restoration fosho!
I'm pretty sure I wont go that far.
In fact, what I might do is a "resto mod", have you heard that term?
It's mainly a car term, but I think that I might be able to apply it to this bike.
People around here are truck/bike crazy. They think their shit is worth WAY MORE than what I can buy it for back home in the U.S. Midwest where I came from, so if I spent 280 on plastics, another 100 or so on a OE carb, I think I could list it on CL for 1200-1500, and let them talk me down to...?
