Concours Cafe Project
now that my C10/sidecar is done, I'm moving on to another project. I have picked up a 1994 Concours 1000 for a wopping $350 and am planning to make a cafe out of it. I've already stripped it down to bare bones and starting to work on repair/replacement to get it running again. I swapped out the front end with my ZRX1100 setup and the rear wheel is my meanstreak milled to work with the rear brake rotor. I've got the carbs off, oil drained and valves adjusted. I'm going to try running pods, however, have been warned that pods on CV carbs don't do well. worst case I'll go back to the OEM air box.
I have the stock ZRX bars on it but may go with a lower set before it's all said and done. the tank is stock, but might end up with something smaller in the end too. I chopped the rear of the seat pan down just for a prototype. trying to find someone that can build a custom seatpan or may have to fab something myself and re-cover it. still a LONG way to go, but it's the journey, not the destination that counts. |
