12' shorty exhaust and 18' wheels eh? guess those would look proportional together. Must be a bear to turn tho.

Simple execution. However, not a huge fan of the bars.

Wow, that one has me stumped. You could work on this and be a true shade tree mechanic. AND once you got it running you could even log a few miles. I think FGKouki needs to get it as a companion for his Woody CB750.
 
Re: "Cafe Racer" such a loose term! Craigslist "Gem" of the week!

I could use that bike to grow my knowledge of cb750's through and through. I wood find the project entangling.
 
What wood you do with it? It's an ugly thing but I guess it grows on you.

That's aspen a lot for a bike that maple not be able to get it running.
 
CALfeRacer maybe the 750 wasn't reason enough but this might be.

Damn!! That would definitely be worth it. Sadly, money is a bit tight so now probably isn't the best time for me... I bet that'll go quick with a clean title for $350
