My New TOP SECRET project...

locOleoN

Is that the best you got? OK.. now my TURN...
Now that the cb750f cafe racer is 99% done, (just setting it up for dual fronts brakes) I have embarked in a new project...

Can anyone guess what it is??!!... ;D

Looks like more of a pit than a pile to me - a money pit. I too see a $9000 bike in that mess - that's about what it will cost you to do it right :D

Oh, and lest anyone think Noel is doing a burnout on his 550 in that pic, that's the way the bike always looks. He has an oil tank feeding a constant drip of replacement oil into the crankcase as it burns up.
 
I like the bikes! You've good the whole brand image come together...

Are you doing a burnout at a highschool to impress the ladies? :)

LOL.... Thats actually me blowing hole into the lower crank case the size of a tennis ball with all the oil gushing into the pistons thus all the smoke..
What you dont see is me scrathing my head, seconds later, wondering what the fuck just happned as CAA is dispatched to tow the bike home.

All this in front of 200+ hot mod chicks on vespas..laughing at me at the rocker mods event last july!!! :(... story of my life...

I smell photochop with a side of applesauce.
 
Nice!! I think I have a head start with my commando though.....I'm leaving mine bone stock.....at least to start. I'll get some pictures of mine on so you can see where all that stuff next to it goes!! Seriously, can't wait to see pics of your progress
 
What is the pile? A British made:
1) device for leaking oil
2) way to show that everyone except Brits can build electronics
3) proof that Japs build REALLY good bikes
4) machine for watching other bikes tail lights
