Cat Duster MX. Has a small Predator on it, that runs decent. Homemade seat cover, but I believe it's the original foam underneath, just crushed. Lever type throttle and hub brake. Original wheels! And dry rotted tires, but they hold air. Not bad.

Lots of good parts on that bike too! nice find man! The engine plate looks like it's uncut. Both of the Duster MX bikes I had were a little beat up on the engine plates.

Good looking bike--goes well with your Go Devil and the Hot Rod pick-up. Congrats!

Good find

 

[Radford46]

Thanks guys. Are these the stock seat rails on this thing? I need to get a decent seat.

 

[capguncowboy]

The stock seat rails look like angle iron. Those appear to be correct.

 

[Radford46]

What's the length and width of a stock seat? Does it have the uplift at the back? I'm too lazy to go searching today!

 

[capguncowboy]

Here's the seat that was on my Duster. I don't remember the exact length and width, but I'm thinking it was 6.5x19

Guy on eBay sells one that fits that description for a decent price. I was looking at the rear fender, though r it was a replacement painted black, but saw that a po apparently painted the original black. I can see where the stripes were. Guess I'll strip that.

 

[capguncowboy]

Go slow when you're removing the paint from that rear fender. If the original decal is still under there, you might be able to save it.

 

[Radford46]

Yep, I was hoping so too. Apparently the exposed sides of the fender had surface rust,and they stripped the decal off leaving chrome in great shape. Does anyone make replacement fender decals?
