Totally agree, from the pic it seems like they align with the handlebars better :D

Usable? or what do you say? :)

Really? cause I dont really know all about that much, in sweden theese bikes are kind of uncommon, I cant remember having seen one in like ever :-\ which makes the project all that more fun :D

Re: "Little Blue" Honda CB125 K5 Here's a quick mock up of how the future completed will look like. I think itt will make it easier to visualize :) Opinions and ideas are welcome - so come on tell me what you think! :D

Re: "Little Blue" Honda CB125 K5 the gauges i'll use are the original ones to the blue one, reason - the red ones where all black bad condition and damaged to moist underneath the glass :-\

Re: "Little Blue" Honda CB125 K5 here's a change - I'll use the frames original seat though. Why? cause the seat of the blue one was a horrid black "King and Queen" saddle. Absolutely terrible IMO. This one is like "a whiter shade of pale" you know not really white and not beige but something...

Re: "Little Blue" Honda CB125 K5 Following picture is of the frames original tank, usable or what do you say? ;)

Re: "Little Blue" Honda CB125 K5 as you can see the tank is slightly damaged as well unfortunately :-X But as i said im a cheap bastard and it will do for now. I also think that since it is an old bike it should show. My goal for now is to just get it up and running :) I'll also use the blue...

Re: "Little Blue" Honda CB125 K5 BTW you'll have to excuse the quality of the pictures (phone camera) I personally think the paint scheme is awesome original on the blue one ill use the essentials from that on these are parts im going to use:

Re: "Little Blue" Honda CB125 K5 This here is the frame im going to use :) As you can see the frame is slightly damaged and in pretty poor condtion :-\

Hi! First Off - Im kinda new to this Forum, and i must say its a fabulous Forum! This is my First attempt of a Café Racer. Hopefully it'll go Awsome! ;D This is the object im starting with, and since i'm a cheap fuck i want to keep it at low cost - next to nothing. And since i also am kind of...

yikes okay worked that fine huh? well that'll be my next step to fix my tank, i was worried it'd be expensive with chemicals and sheit, but it works that good that's the way to do it! :D BTW you dont happen to have a before/after pic to tease me with? ;)
