New Build!!
« on: August 29, 2013, 08:28:07 PM »
Drove up to Souix Falls SD last saturday and picked up a 1977 cb750 for pretty damn cheap. I'm planning on doing a modern cafe racer style bike. Right now I'm thinking of a R1 front end setup and a honda VFR single sidded swingarm.

Here's a pic of how she looks now  8)

If I was Preddy, I would have waited until the bike was done and say.. "look what I built" just to avoid the punishment of another build thread!
