Here’s my ‘71 Ct70. I’ve been hesitant to post a photo of it for a few months now because I’ve been waiting to get it “finished”. I realize that’s not coming for a while. I first tried to build it to be almost a mini Adventure bike so to speak. I’m putting a set of Pirelli tires and takegawa...

Was hoping someone on here can help me with finding the correct size Brembos caliper replacement for my Tanaka trading rear disc brake conversion. I’ve looked online but can’t find any specifications on the Tanaka. I’d like to eventually switch the front and the rear caliper out to something a...

The Leo Vince universal shield comes in small medium or large. The size I have is a medium and is between 6-7 inches long I’m not sure exactly.

The shoes were just recently replaced. The drum brake is in good working condition. It just has a quick black rattle can coat. There’s a few things on my list for this winter to do with the bike and something with the rear brake is one of the first on the list.

The paint job is original and still very good but I was thinking about replacing the Honda decals on the frame. The old ones are a little worn and dinged up.

Thanks I will see what I can do with the engine guard. As far as the rear brake I’m wanting to put rear disc brake on so I’ve been hesitant to polish or clean it up too much back there. I appreciate all the input as usual from you all. It’s 5 degrees in Indiana and I was planning on doing more...

As far as the engine guard going back on I’m not sure if it will fit with the larger motor.

Bars cut and everything is hooked up.

Thank you. I was going for a different look. I still have all the original parts to the bike in good condition as well if I ever wanted to make it stock again. That’s a Leo Vince carbon fiber universal heat shield. I actually saw a guy on here with one and liked it so much I ordered one.

Ended up going with the pro taper mini high bend contour bar. The bar is 1 1/8” On clamping area and tapers out to 7/8 for controls and grip. I still need to cut the bars to shorter width but it definetly looks different.

Amazing bike. Wow. That’s all I can say. Where did you get the sissy bar set up like that? I was thinking about modifying my luggage rack to look like that but would rather just purchase a prestine one.

Thanks everyone. Hoping to get the problem solved ASAP. With the input from this thread it shouldn’t be a problem anymore.

When your going 45-50 it vibrates but I don’t think it’s more than ordinary.

The engine is brand new. It doesn’t vibrate horribly by any means.

Is the size M8 x 110mm? I was looking into titanium motor mounts that were M8 by 120mm. That should give me enough room to run a washer on each side of the mount and a lock nut. Figured I’d start there.
