How do you like the Hindle exhaust? I was considering buying one a while ago but now they seem hard to find, at least on eBay.

Wow, Ron. That color was the right choice. Can't wait to see that Hindle on it!

Just ME Ron, nothing personal! Just to "ME' they upset the Fantastic Job you've done. They just Stand out and don't match the originality of that sector of engine and tank, i'm nuts that way though, ha.

Like this example Ron, although a crusty CB350 example but Where do your eyes go to immediately!! To that "out of place color" battery. I do love me some motobatt batteries though. My similar thinking the same, immediate attention goes to those Taylor Type "agriculture looking" looking colors,
while fine "function wise'" detract from the Glorious tank/emblems and engine cleanliness. Make sense??

Clay, I see what your saying and my 1st instinct was to replace them,but I had them,they were new,and I gave in and have kinda grown on me. But you know as projects go that could change.

04 Aug 2025 06:19Slap a sidecover on that thing, and the battery will be out of view. Ha haLike this example Ron, although a crusty CB350 example but Where do your eyes go to immediately!!

04 Aug 2025 06:39Gotta be honest Clay, I think the "John Deere/Cadillac" furniture has the battery beat as an attention grabber LolLike this example Ron, although a crusty CB350 example but Where do your eyes go to immediately!!

I suggest the "black battery cover in a spray can" solution...

Ed YES, sidecover covers it on the CB350-400 but not soo much on the KZ/LTD900, a layer of yella.still revels itself. Wookie my yard is chuck full of JD Green and yellow but AG equipment isn't/shouldn't be confused with road material, ha. I buy them cheap because they don't have hoods! Who needs a hood for glam when functionality is the sole purpose, i don't have to contend with an HOA or glaring neighbors that judge. I rebuild all the irrigation pivots/reels for my neighbor that owns 4K acres, we don't care about "fancy" in the country, just function. SF, they do make shrouds/wraps that can be utilized for covering, no rattle can required, he.
