Looking for some (gently used) parts.
I have started searching for some parts to finish this project and am l looking to you guys for some assistance.
Only problem is I can't decide on how I want to finish.
The gas tank is the biggest hurdle.
I will upload some photos I have been looking at.
Also, I understand that I will be limited to the market and my wallet.
Already have:
Side number plastics from a 70's CR250
Dual exhaust from a CRF250
2 different headlights both 7" one all black and one with a chrome face(still deciding) with mounting brackets
Looking for:
Early 70's style fenders and tail light assembly:
Chrome preferred and something like the SL350, just not too long in the front or rear. Still debating on placement of the front. Just over the tire like the current setup or mounted under the light.
Gas Tank:
I have seen a few different types.
CG125< I can only find crappy reproductions and at $150 a pop> Boo
CG125 tank is based on the mid 70's CB125 and those aren't looking to good either.
Xl500 from the late 70's pre plastic
CL350 I feel the bottom of the tank might be a bit to linear though.
Some of the photos are of some tanks I can't identify but I like them
Seat:
Will have to be custom made.
I do not want the cafe seats pictured in most of these but a thicker seat that goes all the way back to the fender that will be mounted below the frame.
Front wheel.
32 hole 2.15-2.50 18" D.I.D ( so it matches the rear)
Thank you for suffering through my scattered-brained thoughts and typing.
