        @Choko any ride with a view like that is a good one!

            I just picked up this project from my buddy. 1977 Yamaha XS400. He was turning it into a cafe racer, but I’m going to pivot and make it into a scrambler with the hopes that I can bring it camping. This is my first build so it will be a journey of learning + mistakes + fun. If you’ve done something similar please share any suggestions.

                @Inorganic nice!!! Have fun with it and take your time! With old builds, research takes most of my time, and double checking everything. Enjoy dude! Keep us posted as it progresses!

                    Just came across the DicE Magazine youtube video from the Moon Eyes Hot Rod Custom Show in Yokohama this year. Focuses on motorcycles.

                        That does look like a ton of fun.

                        The journey is the objective.

                          Anyone in here have experience with rebuilds and using Moto gadget gear? I’m specifically thinking of using their mo unit blue & flashers. The prior owner removed the wiring loom and instead of reverse engineering his steps it seems easier, perhaps foolishly, to start afresh.

                            they have the whole suite. I haven't looked at them, but was looking at upgrades like the handle bar indicators

                              @louisbosco yes - those handle bar flashers look pretty rad - I like the simplicity of having the single unit to do away with the complexity of the wiring loom (to a degree)

                                @Inorganic I guess it just boils down to your wiring skills. for me, I hate electrical components. nuts and bolts perfect, wiring, forget it.

                                starting afresh will have its benefits for sure.

                                  I've considered using their stuff but its hella expensive. Everyone says its worth it and the products are excellent, but my bikes have been pretty bare bones. I like simplicity so stripped all that stuff off my Ironhead and got it down to about 6 wires total.

                                      @Andymac For years I rode with the Motorcycling Polar Bears. Every Sunday from October to April you would ride to a different location and sign in. You got 2 points for riding your bike and 1 point for every 100 miles you rode,round trip. If you got 50 points you got a patch. As long as there was no ice or snow I would go. You were allowed to take your car twice.
