1982 CSR 750 Project 9/10 done was created by Shaolinwind
I bought this bike in January for $200.
Over the last 5 months I did the carbs, fork seals, replaced yards of wires, replaced the tires, rebuilt the brakes, replaced the various everythings and finally painted with plain old rattle can rustoleum. I made the seat cover out of some scrap leather and patched the mangled foam with quilting batting. (I need to restretch the leather). Now I need to polish the engine and pipes and replace the badges.
I'm strongly considering enameling the pipes and part of the engine black. Does anyone have any good ideas for what to do next to make my bike look even better?
