Making big strides on the Bullitt CB/CL. Decided to fully disassemble and build it back up proper. There is really nothing left that hasn't been replaced, repainted or repaired. There's been some big improvements and a lot of time put into this old girl.
We've been working hard on the CB lately. The bike was getting close to being finished before we decided to pull the motor, hack up the frame and make this a proper build. The frame's being de-tabbed and looped and on its way to powder coat. The motor's been gone through and is getting dialed in. Basically, we took everything apart, replaced all hardware, scrubbed, cleaned and coated just about everything we could.
Not all of us have the know-how or stable hand of Skratch but still want pinstriping on our own bikes and helmets. I didn't want to pay anyone and just thought I'd mask off the area with pinstriping tape and give it a go myself. That's what's been so fun with the Bullitt CB - just going for it on my own. Never done this before, wasn't sure how it'd turn out but overall happy with the results.
Getting closer every day. Still need to tackle the wiring, loop the tail and get the custom seat finished up. We swapped out all the hardware for black hex bolts, wrapped the headers, powder coated the springs and blacked out the shocks with epoxy paint. Can't wait to get this thing on the road!
