Hey guys, I just wanted to share a build on here and get a little input or constructive criticism. Back in April I bought my first motorcycle I really wanted an older British bike but funds were lacking lol. So I settled for an older Japanese bike 81 Honda cb650. I hope to be painting the tank and seat here soon kind of on the fence with colors but I'm leaning toward an off white. Here's it's stages from start till now.
Homemade fiberglass seat didn't turn out so well I'll leave that to the pros lol
So there she is in her current state. Made a 367 mile round trip to the beach last weekend and did great. Here's a pic of the petcock I currently have in the tank and it's the only one I found that fit the bung. It exits straight down into the carb boot and puts a kink in the line still flows but I'm not that fond of it. Any ideas on how to make the brass part come out at a 90 degree angle? Not sure how it was installed I imagine it's pressed in.
