Been Around the Block
Hey guys, new member here, figured I would post up my bike. Picked up a 79 CB750 Limited model from a local guy, it was all tourered out, bags, bars, you name it. Paint was iffy on the tank due to a brake fluid leak, and it had a mismatched side panel. Figured I would turn it into something fun.
Before:
So, swapped out the bars, lights, signals, mirrors, horn, ripped off the rack and rear fender, reshaped the seat and had it recovered, new lighting package in the rear, etc. Topped off with Honda S2000 white paint and refinished badges. Still need to do a little vinyl work to cover up the badge mounting holes on the side panels, but it's pretty much done. I have a ton of build pics on my website which will be linked below.
All in all, I'm in this thing for about $1600, including the purchase price of the bike and all my work so far. I'm really happy with how it looks, and it rides like a dream. Check out all the progress at retrostreetfighter.tumblr.com
