    'bratstyle' cb350f

    Howdy guys, this is my newly bratty cb350f (yes, the enormous 4 cyl). I am a full time law student with little money and no garage.

    Paint and polish are not my thing, so this thing will likely never get a full paintjob and will likely stay just as dirty as it is right now

    Bought it on CL for 500 bucks, and messed with it some and rode it like this for a while:


    Got bored with the 'cafe' nonsense after a while and decided its time for a change so i bought a $100 welder and went a little crazy.

    Whats done now:
    -19" drum brake cl360 front wheel
    - Lowbrow "axed" tank
    -11.5" shocks
    -4" tractor headlight in which I mounted nuetral/oil press. lights and a push/pull headlight switch
    -mt90 double whitewall rear tire, stock hub laced to 16x3.5 motoguzzi rim
    -generic harley coils, and cloth covered plug wires
    -homemade skinny handlebars
    -foot clutch from scratch
    -jockey shift made from my old brake pedal
    -seat pan and upholstery
    -license plate bracket
    -tail light made from old brass lamp pieces
    -battery/electrics box from some 5" pvc pipes
    -made a new wiring harness (no turn sigs, no starter solenoid, no high beam, no kill switch, moved ignition under the seat, etc)
    -hand painted tank mural


















    here you can see my electronics box. Got the ignition key right there and the black and red posts are where i wired it so I can hook the battery up to my trickle charger without having to open up the box.











    and some cell phone pics of my latest addition of a mural. subject matter: unicorn puking a rainbow.







    How you like it? I think I've got some sort of postpartum depression or something because after finally finishing her, all i want to do is throw her off a cliff and start an XS project

                  I think its cool cause its different... most people wouldn't think to use a 4 cylinder to build a brat bike. Look at it this way... if it were a 650 then you would have what alot of people have allready built

                            Yeeaa looking back now I kinda wish I'd hard-tailed it instead of going brat. It would've been a hell of a lot easier I bet. I really love the look of a clean rigid 650... I think that'll be my next project.

                              fuck paul jr and the unicorn he rode in on man! do some flake or just a simple paint scheme. that thing don't need all that much to take it to the next level. if anything, just think that a simple paint job will attract alot more buyers than a fucking gay my little pony if you ever wanted to make a buck with it........
