Default sorta ot- honda quality!

I picked up this '75 Honda CB360 for $50.00 and i planned on parting it out.
It was laying on it's side in a yard with a bunch of wrecked cars and trucks
around it. I found a set of carbs on ebay and fiddled with it for a couple
days. Well the thing runs and works great! This bike was last inspected in
1986 and it sat outside through the winters of NY and she still runs. I
stuck about $50.00 worth of parts into it just so it looks, runs, and stops
good (and some flat black paint and elbow grease). Any ideas for it would be
appreciated. I was thinking of making it a hill climber and extending the
ass end of it, or just a beater bike for the trails around here.
