80's power hour cb650

[prospectorjim]

Figured id finally post what ive been working on instead of lurking like usual. Got a beat down 1980 cb650 custom a while ago for next to nothing. After months of work on and off its nearing the home stretch. Only things that i kept from the original bike was the engine, frame and swingarm for the most part. Rebuilt the engine and ditched most of the other stuff for various cb750 parts like the wheels and tank. Engine is ready to go back in with carbs from a gpz600r in place of the pd's that it came with. More pics to be added shortly.

Re: CB650...somewhat

Finally had a free moment to play with the wheel spacing for the front cb750 wheel.. It took some messing around with a few different spacers to get it to sit correctly in the cb650 front end but shes finally a rolling chassis again. Next up is throwing the engine back in.

I'm liking the progress. What's the size of your rims?
