Honda cb360 update

So, our sweet caferacer project is coming along.
The sweet hubs where polished, Morad aluminum rims are laced with stainless steel spokes, all other wheel parts are ready for mounting.
This week tires will be fitted, so the mock-up for fitting the tank and seat combo can take place.

The engine was put together, covers polished, bolts torqued down, still waiting for some parts like carbs and electronic ignition, it'll be running two brandspanking new Mikuni carbs.

Fully rebuild engine, new everything. And shiny too!

Front wheel backing plates, polished, the stock speedo drive is obsolete because of the use of an electronic motogadget speedo.

Front wheel, polished aluminum, high glossy white paint, wil get some sticky rubber soon!

CB360 caferacer project update

A lot of work has been done lately, mostly cleaning parts, searching for parts and ordering them.
We fitted the Marzocchi triple trees with the original Honda stem in order to fit original size bearings.
Some machining was done on the Marzocchi parts to obtain a perfect fit for the lengthened original Honda stem, custom protective caps where machined from aluminum to keep dirt away from the new conical head-race bearings.

New aluminum end caps where machined, stylish and functional and matching the looks of the Italian fork parts.
We bead blasted the parts for that satin finish, wich kinda looks cool.

Front hub waiting for some parts, after that we'll align it and have it detailed by Royal Jack

Custom aluminum caps for the Marzocchi forks

                                                                                                                                                                                             

The front hub has undergone the Royal Jack treatment, after this treatment the hub will be laced with a high shouldered aluminum rim.
