I've got a CB650 too, so I'm waiting with bated breathDV2000NJ said:Thanks, sadly there hasn't been any progress on the bike in the past year. Finished up my final year of school, and currently job hunting while working as a mechanic again to make ends meet doesn't leave much time or extra cash left over for the bike. Hopefully once I have a steady income and my own place I'll be able to get back to it.

Being "not dead" is something that I have been pretty good at so far... In fact, thus far, I have a 100% success rate at not dying!rays650cafe said:You're not dead, good.
The build isn't dead, it's just in a coma. I ended up selling my Miata and buying a 2000 VFR800 that's been my daily transportation, so that leaves me even less motivated to work on the 650. The VFR is just so much... better.M.B Co said:Nice to hear from ya too. Glad to see the build is not dead either....
I hear ya on time and money. Life get's in the way of all the fun stuff.
UltraV said:Ha, finally google lead me to gold. I bought an 81 CB650C back in May, got my license in November and I'm using the winter to do my build on her. This is the first place I finally found good info on a 650C specifically!
Your pics really helped me visualize and wrap my brain and imagination around some things that I had been battling over up until now. Thanks for your thread!
I think I will start my own now as well.
