I just bought a 71 cl175, its my first bike and I will be converting it to a cafe racer. First thing to go is gonna be those ugly pipes. I was just wondering where I can get exhaust for it. I have found stock cb175 exhausts on ebay, and was wondering what else is out there.
Also what front ends and rear shocks will work on this bike. Also can I just switch out some of the parts from the current front end to make it more street friendly. I haven't worked on bikes before, but I used to work as an equpiment mechanic so I have good general mechanical knowledge, so I'm not too worried about difficulty of the modifications.
your neighbors already hate you, admit it. and if they dont, once they realize you have a motorcycle, they will. so just buy some race pipes for it. you'll meet other people that are cooler.
