Back in February Rainstromrider and Myself did a little horsetrading and he took ownership of the "Old BattleAxe" parts bike I had in exchange for this little CB350F he had (amongst others) that I was interested in.
He has kept us updated on fis FANTASTIC transformation in The building of "Bones" http://www.ngwclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=24698 while I would pay some attention to the "Lil Sister" when my GL "Bomber" build hit a snag. Not really activly serching out parts but knew what I wanted and when I ran across something cheap, I'd snatch it up. Clubmans, tail light, etc.. The turn signals are what I did not use on the GL, found some nicer Aluminum ones for her. The exhaust is 4 Empi 2" flared baffled VW muffler tips from J.C. Whitney, dirt cheap compared to Motorcycle mufflers and slid right on the stock pipes.... And the seat, I made that from an old piece of aluminum sign from work and left over cuttings from the Bombers seat pad and cover.
So without any further intro, here are a couple before and after shots.

Sure is! Still destined for a complete teardown this coming winter, but I am calling her good for the summer while I stay on the Bomber build...
Pay no attention to the Michigan plate, thats just to give the illusion of being legal here on the country roads where I live. I guess you could say she is an illegal alien at the moment, still needs to get her green card ;)
