Thanks man! Now that I've had some time riding it after the resto I'm really stoked. It rips and handles like a dream. Good luck getting yours finished up.

That's the one I'm looking for. Does it serve any function other than to plug that end of the rack? Mine didn't have one when I bought it and Millennium did a replate and HPP service, so I assume it adjusted up fine without it. Will email PDE to get more info. Thanks

I've got the same problem. Bought the bike with it missing. I guess it was run that way. Yesterday I ground the threads off the bottom of a bolt and threaded it in. I assume it will work until I can find one. What did you end up doing?

That's a nice one! Shouldn't take much to make it perfect. I still get a grin when I ride mine, although they are evil handling compared to everything else we ride today.

I've had the CT110 for about 6 years but it took me practically that long to find a nice unmolested one with a title! I try to make a beer run on it every month or so to keep it healthy. My dad had a '67 when I was a kid and that's when I got the bug.

That's the same tank and shrouds as the original shots of the "peach" pre-surgery. I invested about 6 hours wet sanding the tank and a couple more on the shrouds. Started with 320 and ended up with 2000. Buffed with a dry wool bonnet. It came out better than I expected.

Since 86 CR250 restorations are about as prevalent as store bought titties in Hollywood-- I'll spare you all the gory details and bolt by bolt therapy I've been enjoying this winter. After untold hours, beer and $$ it is coming along but at a standstill now anxiously awaiting my cylinder to come back from Millennium. Ready for the virus all...

I picked up this peach the end of January and started the process to bring it back to life. At that time there were maybe 8 or ten cases of the virus in the US, but I needed a project. You know the saying "idle hands are the devils workshop!"
