Changed the contour of the seat, reupholstered and clean the bike up.

I do have to say that I like it with the headder tape..

I plan to do the same on my cb750f's 4-1 pipes...
It gives the bike that old "I dont give a shit how it looks" attitude!! ;D

The problem with colored exhaust wrap is that the color fades fast and becomes white ;D

Could be worse - could turn pink!

Nice ride.
DO you have pipe for your 750F? (i have an original header if you need)

Hey Max...

Thanks for the offer bro...
I do have a really nice 4-1 exhaust for the cb750f.
I just today bought a set of 4-4 drags on ebay!!

Cheers

...it turns a nice oily brown and smokes like a chimney for 30 minutes of the first ride
 
I guess since his will be white soon we'll all be happy eh?!!! I'm doin a gs 400 chopper 4 a guy right now in the shop along with my buildoff bike, I'll post up some pics later as it materializes. I like the way your goin on the bike, keep up the good work.!!

Not really a problem at all.
When the wrap starts to fade/turn nasty do a quick light spray of high temp bar-b-q paint and
the wrap will look better than new.
 
geez... I thats an amazing idea.. I never thought of that before....
I have so much to learn....so much in so little time....
