Ok, so I got the old girl home in the garage. Some of you may have seen my post in the new member section. I just acquired a 77 faired basket case. :builder: I have already found that I will certainly need some new parts as some are just missing. I can see right off the bat that I will need throttle and clutch cables, a float/sender for the fuel tank.
Just wondering what you all have found for the best place to acquire these replacement parts? I am online all day for work :laptop: so shopping online is easy enough. Can most be acquired from a Honda dealer?
Also wondering about exhaust. I have the 2-1 manifolds but the slip-ons that came with it are not going back on. They are gutted so they are just straight pipes. I don't care for that. I do not have the collector that goes under the bike so I am looking for options to connect directly to the manifolds that won't be straight pipes.
This will be a great ongoing winter project so I am sure I will be back with lots of questions as I go along. It has been quite a few years since I have done a basket case. Really excited for this one.
:thanks:
