Hi Ben,
I sold it to a gent in Perth who then moved to Austria or Switzerland and he took the bike with him. He sent me a pic of him with the bike on some mountain pass. I haven't heard from him since so hopefully the brakes worked on the way down!

Hi Twistekeys,
I use dropbox and link the photos to the files. I imagine at some stage I must've moved the files which in turns changes the file path and therefore one can no longer see the pics. Don't remember doing that but I can think of no other explanation.
A mini build thread is here...

Seems like everytime I come back, the first thing I have to do is apologise for lack of updates. Sorry guys.

Great bike.
I posted a pic of it yesterday on my blog and it was quite popular to say the least. Your photographer contacted me on facebook and gave me the flickr link and the DTT link. I've since added the appropriate links to the blog.
Not a single thing I would change on your bike, perfect.

We started the hunt for a suitable bike and found a CB500 at a good price. I loved it the moment I saw it, even though it looked fairly rough and had a...

We call it "Mr Green" because my 4th grade teacher's name was Mr Green and he was a right bastard, always throwing chalk at me and often hitting me in the head. By the end of this build you will see why this is...
Last weeks ride was postponed a week due to near hurricane conditions.
This Sunday 10am meet at Mandurah just over the bridge in the carpark. We take off as soon as every one finishes shootin the shit and wants to exercise their right hand. It's an open and fast ride and all bikes welcome...
