Thank you for the feedback. Yes I can drop the fairing no problem. Since the fairing is wider in the base than the tank, the line up of them only can be done in certain angles, on that photo i am sitting down. The seat is not properly attached in the front yet, the base of the seat should line...

I bought the fairing from ebay.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5-3-4-Headlight-Fairing-Windshield-For-Matt-Cafe-Racer-Drag-Racing-Viper-Class-/121988177998?hash=item1c670fe04e:g:irsAAOSwxvpXOYno

Straight from the side.

Did some testing with a front fairing.

Chain clearance is now 15mm at the top of the swingarm, I have to increase rear sprocket size to 37-38 teeth, from the 33 teeth that is on the cb450t rear wheel. The shocks are 340mm instead of the 330mm that was on. I think stock shocks is around 320mm so total increase is about 20mm...

Got it back from the paintshop so now all the assembly and all mistakes have to be sorted:)

Have already done some work on this bike, start was a pretty beat up cb350f 1973, stripped it down and now putting the pieces together to get the final look, welding brackets etc. before I tear it down again.

Carbs and homemade 2 to 1 exhaust fitted.

Some updates. Replaced the rear chrome fender with a "raw" steel one to get the raw steel look, also installed a discbrake in the front...

I basically bought it in "boxes" stripped down by many previous owners, now i am putting it together the way i want it to be. I really wanted to have knobby tires on a hard tail so that is what i put on ;D What i did this far Tires, single seat, rear fender, handlebars. some cutting and...

Old hardtail getting a make over. It was made to a hardtail long ago don´t know what it looked like back then, probably not like this.

As you see i used a open air filter so i could remove the original. Makes a lot of room to put all electrics under the seat. The rectifier is even visible right under the seat.

This is the finished bike, now i need to sell and find something new for the winter.

This is really a fast cheap and easy conversion. Remove all unwanted parts. Replace seat, rear fender, bars, silencer, mirrors, indicators and taillight. Not much of cutting or welding only some new brackets. If you have the parts it could be on the road again after a weekend in the garage...

Stripped it down and also tried some stuff to get the final look.
