1980 CB650 Project

I recently bought a basket case CB650.
Purchased it all in pieces and managed to transport it all in a 4 door bmw 3-series.
Everything was nicely organized in individually identified bags.

Started with the frame and wheels, and will be doing the engine rebuild next.
Not sure which way I'm going with this, something along the line of a tracker/brat/cafe.

That sure looks really clean for a "Basket Case" ..."Everything was nicely organized in individually identified bags. "....
Was the PO starting to restore it? Sounds like a pretty darned good find!
Have fun with it; I'm looking forward to see what it comes out like....
 
new gasket set, painted engine, cut the rear, etc.

What does everyone think of the drag style straight handelbar? Is it fine?
I'd like clip-ons but they're over budget for my bike. Any idea for homemade?
