Could you post a proper front forks setup possibly so I could get an idea of what I'm looking at?

I meant about the forks being dangerous.

Yea it didn't sound right to me, I'm going to look at a cx500 today I'm gonna record him starting it up and post the video on here so I can get some feedback back on how it sounds before I buy it, I'm a complete rookie at this point but I wanna dive in head first and get my first project started.

You are speaking about the first bike ?

That's what I figured and slightly smaller rear shocks on the 1st pictured bike.

i 100% agree with everything you said, was simply looking at the stance of the bike. the size of the tires seems rather large correct? Which is why there is minimal suspension clearance in the rear right?

Besides the obvious seat difference, what makes these two cx500c's seem to have such different lines of sight. One seems so flat and the other almost has a bit of a bobber postion to it. saving up fora cx500c right now and im just trying to come up with a plan for my bike and i want mine to...

Hello any updates on the status? im interested as im getting a cx500 soon. 3 questions for you though. 1 how tall are you? 2 What did you do to your forks or tree? if anything at all? 3 are those all original wires?
