Today, I went to my dad's shop where the frame is, and had a visualization session. I brought out the frame and stuck a tank and seat on it to try to figure out what I wanted to do, and where everything is going to go, and what tabs I'm going to grind off. My conclusion was, stock tank (there's a CL350 tank on it in the pic), custom seat, scrap the center stand, battery box, side covers and air box. The only problem is that the plastic bit from the carbs to the filter box is thin because the outside two carbs are pretty close to the frame. Will pods fit?

Ran into a couple problems two weeks ago when I was bolting my case together. I applied the Hondabond and started bolting everything together, when I realized that I forgot to check the torque on the cam adjuster. So I had to take it all apart before it dried. I cleaned everything up and started over. I reapplied the Hondabond, then I misread the torque specs on the M6 bolts, and broke the M6x100 and had to tear it apart again. I put an order in for new M6 bolts, and the should be here Monday.
