Getting ready, in the coming months, to to turn an old CB360 into a bobber.
My question is why do i have to use a tig welder to modify the frame, or do I.
I have a mig welder and an AC stick welder that I think will work ok, I haven't gas welded in several years; but I can do that if need be, But i'm thinking the mig welder will suffice.
I'm asking this question because I want to completly replace the tail section, and I want to do it myself.
I'll take any other advice you may have as well, I've never done this sort of thing before. Not on this scale anyway.
The closest I've come is when i was younger i blew up the motor in my MT 125 and i wanted to ride. so i had an SL 125 motor in another bike, I swaped them. The bike was a lot better in these hills with the sl engine because it was a 4 cycle, more lugging power. not as fast as the MT though.
The other thing i did was to build a three wheeler of sorts by matting a gocart to an old MX 250. I cut the rear off the gocart and removed the tripple trees from the MX250. welded the bike to the rear of the gocart. that was one wild ride.
Don would like this, I named the buggy the "FREEBIRD".
