CM450: Take 2

Thanks! Just checked out your 500 build. I recently picked one up. What shock are you using on the rear?

It's from an 04' Indian....it's insanely stiff as it was meant for at least a 600 lb bike. The main reason I went for it, was that it has 2 pivot points, unlike the CBR mono shock setup etc. like the one you have, it has to have the linkage and be relatively straight up (your execution is beautiful by the way ;) ) I needed the space as I wanted it lower.

I'd never have thought that a CM would look that cool...!!!
What's the tank off?

Thanks, it's off a cl360. The bike will probably end up with a cb360 tank though.
 
Started tacking up the stainless exhaust. Plan is to rout it underneath the seat.

Got some more work done on the exhaust this evening. Have to make a muffler next. Don't mind the different tank. Still trying out a couple of different colors.

There are some similarities haha. This muffler will be small though. Hopefully quite it down a little. Strait pipes on a small Honda are not the best sounding.
