white stripes and big tires on an 80's Camaro with a 70's tank....YAWN. Oh, and DUAL exhaust....no BASH plate? Where do the air filters go when your knees take out the air filters....junk.
Mighty chosen, what seat is that on your side hack rig? I really like that setup, though minus the sidecar... You running late model Bonneville shocks, too?
What's your thoughts on the shinko 241 tires? Are they a solid 50/50 dirt/street tire? How do they wear? Deciding between 705 and 241 for my 1978 xs650 Yambler. I like the classic "trials universal" look of the 241 but haven't heard from anyone that runs them. Troop Throwbacks
Currently running 241's on my '73 CL 350. Pro's - inexpensive, decent grip on street and dirt roads, looks period correct Con's - wears quickly (softer compound?), noisy on road (typical knobby whine). I will looking for a road bias dual sport replacement after the 241's wear out, doubt I'll get 1200 miles out of them in total. Good Luck!
Seat is off a AT 1 or other early Yamaha. I,m not sure it was a swap meet find for ten bucks but it needs replaced. The pan is pretty rusty and I want to find a seat a little longer so that I can haul a passenger. Shocks and bars are off my Scrambler. When I separate it from the car I want to upgrade the front forks as well. Maybe a set from a YZ or something like that. I rode it solo for a month this year and it was a hoot blasting thru the trails but found it a handful on the jumps.
