this has got to be my favorite Honda cafe bike. Maybe someday this is what my 550 will look like.

Made a phone call, secured a 1979 CB750k. Ready to be raped and rebuilt.

Great now I gotta post more pics of my junk ;) It's late and I have no electric in my garage so tom I'll post pics of my 74 cb450. Currently working on shift linkage (shifter and brake levers and brackets from '00 F4i and some other random bikes). I got distracted from the bike and '67 bug by house renovations but now its summer! Pics tomorrow:D09 BMW 328xi touring 6spd
05 Subaru Outback XT 5spd
87 BMW 325is

Building one of these means leanin how to make stuff and picking up bits from swap meets. theres no reason you should spend more than $1500-2000 to make a neat lil scoot.
that Suzy is a perfect example.

Some pics of mine. One is a close up of my rearset setup. It's off an '01 F4i and some type of yamaha....(it's just tacked in place @ this point) Front fender is off an early 80's suzuki (needs to be trimmed where it mounts to shock tube). Also you can see my '67 bug and my "pinstriping" talents. I need more practice
