I've always wanted one.  I think it's a really great little bike. A bit small for my size though.  Not sure about that 45hp, however. That's really high for a 250cc at 'only' 13000rpm. Anyway if it is true it is surely at the crank. Rule of thumb is about 15% loss for drivetrain.

My friend had a cbx250 (single cyl) for years. It was a tiny bike but an absolute BLAST to ride. Around 25hp, I think.

here is the painted tank guys.  Its dark outside so pics arent real good ill get some outside tomorrow in the sun light.

Wow! Nice work. A definite improvement on its previous condition!

nah, I think the old condition had more "street cred".   

Just kidding, looks great, looking forward to seeing more. 

thanks guys im really not happy with it but wife wont let me strip it and start over.....   hope im happier with the rest of the build goes better.  i was happy with the tank until i painted it.

I love project threads, makes me want to pick up an old bike and start digging in.

Don't strip it and start over.  If the rest of the bike turns out as good as the tank it'll be a great looking bike.  Show bikes are for trailers, real bikes get ridden.  Keep posting, I'm excited to see what comes next. 

ok i wont strip it ill just keep going with the rest of the project.  I was going to pull front end off today but it was so nice outside me and the wife went outside and did some cleaning since it was already snowing when we bought are new place the end of november.  I have to goto work tomorrow so maybe ill get to work on it again tuesday.  Im thinking my parts will be here tuesday or so.  So i need to get the front end stripped off the bike anyways.

I'm nearly sure that not the stock tank ...
Cool.
Buddha.

Is that a '95 or '96 GMC Jimmy you've got there?  Two-door LS, right?

thats the stock tank buddha.  yes a 95 jimmy

ok so on to the next part on the bike.  the belly pan.  I think it was ran over then fixed and then ran over again.  After countless hours of searching i came up with no part so its time to glass it back together and bondo it up nice and pretty like the tank.  Here are some before and after pics up to the ready do sand down and start filling the outside.

meh       
the BLAZER LT 4 door is better 

hey this is about the bike not the truck...lol j/k i take it you have a 4dr anyways ill post up more pics as soon as i have it filled and ready for paint.

looking good!  Is it warm enough in MI to be using fiberglass?

60 outside today  it set in about 10 mins after i was done putting it all on.  And i do the filler inside so its all good.  first coat of fill is on the part now and prolly ready to start sanding but im eating a bit of lunch right now.     I should have some more pics of this peice sometime tonight.

Why
What would make you think that  

here you go done sooner then i thought but there is the belly pan after finished body work and painted.



these are kinda hard to see ill take a pic once its finished dring and i bring it inside.

Good work!  You seem to work pretty fast with bondo/fiberglass.  At least much faster than I normally do!

i had to be fast when i used to build limos so these little things go pretty good thanks
