Nice!
Got any pics of the bike?
1973 Honda CB175, looks like a junk box, but its actually mostly complete and in rather decent shape

Very cool. A friend of mine has a bike similar to that, not sure of the exact year but I'm pretty sure it's early 70's and a Honda too. I've always liked bikes of that vintage.
Edit: His is a '71 CB350
I'm kind of surprised it fit in the back of the X, I figured it would be too tall.
you got to love the 5 min. fix. Sometime I dread even looking for the problem thinking it has to be the worse thing I can think of.
Nice! I've seen it done a couple of times, and this is what I suggest anytime someone asks. Look forward to what you come up with!

I saw in another post you had Wyoming plated. What part of Wyoming are you from? I used to live In Southeast Idaho, about 15 minutes from the Wyoming line. In fact, I could baby kick a rock off my buddies front porch and get it into Wyoming.We finally got a small snow storm come through today. In about 12 hours it put 6-10" of snow on the ground. I still managed to get to work in 2wd and did slideways all 3 miles of it. Hopefully winter hits late and in full force as I would love for 2' of snow for some urban snow bashing.

Oh nice. That was one side of the state I never made it to when I lived out there. I was about 30 minutes or so from Afton, WY.Im in Gillette, NE corner about 2 hours west of Rapid City and about 1.5hours from Blackhills

I can't wait to wheel out there. I've got family in Belle Fourche SD. It's some beautiful country out there. I'm jealous.
Was there 3 or 4 years ago. Just happened to be when Sturgis was going on. So I avoided Deadwood. But next year, not so much.
I'm curious to see how that comes out. I battled with that on my last truck. I was never happy with the results, but maybe things will be different with the 1.0 cluster.
Getting the cluster out is easy. Just a few boots and wires. The climate controls are a different story. If I may make a suggestion. Order replacement controls on ebay and formulate a plan and your lighting before hand.the real trick for me is going to be 2 things.... getting the cluster out, and getting the AC controls out... both of which I have attempted but not completely done...

It's not the knob that's the problem. It's the cable that goes to the air box that's the problem. I'm still unsure of how to get that out of the controls.I think I remember reading your writeup about it. Didnt you have issues getting the red/blue on the temp knob to light correctly? I was gonna straight swap the bulbs and call it a day. Im not too picky with that stuff, I have bulbs out anyways...

Are the bulbs in yours the long stupid ones too? Or regular bulbs.
Interesting. I've never seen the 1.0 cluster. The 1.5 was a regular 194 for the cluster and then had these really long 2" bulbs for the climate.Ive got 4 long ones im assuming for the cluster, and 2 little stubby round ones that look like the twist in

Mine were backwards from that.yeah the long skinny ones will replace the 194s the stubby ones SHOULD be whats in the AC controls
But why?Random thought of the day.... I think I will hunt down a Waggy 44 and see if I can sell my F250 HP 44....
But why?
Easier... at least the fact the waggy is 6luh and not 8 lug and FW like the 79 F250 HP
I was wondering where you were at with your SAS project. I'm eager to see it progress
A waggy axle is nice in that respects....Plus its pretty damn close to the same WMS as the Xterra.
