nice work, I'm jelouse of your' dual disk setup (are they each a single piston? what size are the wheels? how big's your' axle?)

I'd love to see some tight shots of how you worked out those rear signals... I've been toying with the idea of mounting signals on my new 360.

congratulations
The signals are just the stock ones with the hollow stalks cut down. The discs are single piston...front is a 19 inch wheel, rear is 16. Not sure about the axle dimensions, sorry. You might stop over at KZrider and do a search. those guys swap stuff around all the time..there's a gs/kz wheel swap thread going on right now. Lots of cafe' guys, too.
Ride safe...God bless!

Here are a few pics of the final paint on the tail, and a near final seat cover...not sewn, but looking better.

This is a pic to show the ceiling surface in the paint, and the shadows from the light on the ceiling, too...

another view..

And one of the seat...not the same cover as the two above...
Image

almost done now...still riding it around as I finish up loose ends. Fender is done except for final polish, and it's on the bike now. These next two pics are from a couple days ago, before the seat above, and before sanding/buffing out the paint on the tail and front fender...

I'll get more pics after the exhaust is repainted and it's all together.
Ride safe...God bless!

Looks great, but...

Stop raising the bar, you're making some of us look bad. :laughing:

They say rise/drop is 4" but they are pretty much 0. My hands are about level with the mounting point.

I bought these particular bars because they don't drop too much. Most other clubmans I've seen are lower which I think would be a bit uncomfortable.

Center width is 8"

They are probably similar to what you have but you get the angle which pulls your elbows in a bit.
Hey do you think they will fit a 1982 Honda CM200T?
