And im only half way done to making it legal. All i need are some mirrors and my speedometer and tachometer and ill be good to go 
 
 
 
 
EDIT: I forgot to mention i welded a stud onto the kickstand so it would be easier to kick it down because it would get stuck under the exhaust pipe and i would look reatarded pulling it out by hand

Thanks man And i totally forgot about the swing arm and i will be painting that black as well. The fairings covers and cowlings that im not using ill let you guys have to sell or for replacements. I am going to warn you that they are cracked and will need to be fiberglassed to be put back on the bike. They are red and some of them cracked on the joints where you screw them onto the bike. The only one i think isnt cracked is the part that covers the windshield and gauges. It doesnt have a windshield either. Other then that ill see if i have anything else. In the past couple of posts i keep forgetting to tell you i am going to be putting green LED's under the bike at least for night riding since green isnt illegal and its also my favorite color. i ordered them from amazon and should be here tuesday and i will test them tuesday night . I didnt think this bike was that fast either. After i cleaned the carbs, i accelerated to see how it would react and it almost popped a wheelie

Don't forget to make sure your grounding points aren't rusted and ground your lights really, really good!!!!

Oh no. You know how the lights on a bike have three clicks? One is off 2 are the low beams and 3 are the high beams? Everyone says to always keep your lights on so people can see you better so i put my headlights on the 2nd click and the 3rd one is going to have the LED's so i will be wiring it to the harness where the highbeams would go. Engineering for 4 years really paid off

Should have only two settings for the lights… High and low… That is of course unless your bike was made prior to 1975…
Lights are very green. Like an ALEIN

Quick question: my friend pretty much made a bolt for the gear shifters using a bolt that fit perfect and drill a hole big enough for it on the frame in front of the peg. Now thats snug and tight so thats not the problem, but when i shift, usually going from 1st to 2nd, i would click it all the way up but it would stay on 2nd and then slip back to neutral after a second. anything i gotta change?

You need new shifter forks, and possibly bead blasting the transmission.
I wouldn't worry about it, or your noisy clutch (if it isn't noisy now it will be). Honda's have the WORST transmissions out of any motorcycle. They are just REALLY notorious for it.

Ok thanks. I just recently did an oil change and it helped it a little bit but it still slips. Could you guys get me a deal on bar end mirrors that arent round? Im still in the process of getting a helmet and mirrors so i can call the insurance company and make it legal.

I use a pair of these on my CB, but I wraped them in some grip tape to keep them from moving.
