Hi All,
almost 9 months ago I bought a 1974 CB450 K7 from a guy here in Australia who imports bikes from the states. It had roughly 3800miles on the clock and was in a very clean condition. I bought it with thew idea in mind to finally start working on bikes, maybe even restore / customise one. I started slowly, stripped a few bits and pieces off it and kept working on it.
In the meantime, after 9 months, I had the bike stripped down to the bare frame, cut the tail off and welded a loop on, had it powder coated, painted the motor and Im about to put it all back together... cafe style. Right now Im at the stage where it all looks pretty descent 'and' all I have to is to make the rear brakes work and re-do the entire wire harness. Im gonna be using several Motogadget parts to keep it neat and tidy. I'll start attaching a few photos of the process and keep on doing this until Im done.
Don't hesitate to leave a comment... Im always happy to learn. Cheers
