82 maxim brat/cafe
i hate maxim fuel tanks, and i hate the wheels. i gotta deal with the wheels for now though i guess. but as far as the gas tank goes. I have an old 73 rd350 parts bike laying around so I took the tank off that.. re-tunneled it to fit the dumb 3 tube back bone on the maxim. pounded out a new seat pan and used the vinyl off the rd350 seat and now working that onto the pan. the lines are perfect seeing how they are from the same bike. obviously doing other things.. hiding wires, cutting more shit off, welding new brackets here and there.. made a battery box out of an old metal box from some old lady's trash, headlight bucket from an 71 yamaha 110 enduro. ford doulamp , cafe bars (not sure if those are staying or not) and some other misc things.. so ya
that cb350 is my girlfriends.. it took her a whopping one summer of riding on the back with me for her to want her own.. its a 71 cb350 twin... damn thing is clean. I got her a new seat and reshaped it so she could touch her feet to the ground and got her some new bars and tires.
