sharperdill said:Those lines are nice. I never thought that a liquid cooled bike could look this tight, and well put together. To tell you the truth, I loathed the cx500 platform until I seen what you have done with it. Everything just looks right here. Out of curiosity what tire and sizes are you running?
fastcat14 said:looking great so far. a 1980 CX500 is my daily rider, they are great bikes. I used to think that the cafe CX500s didnt look "right", mostly because of the comstar wheels. however, with the look you are going for they seem to fit the bill nicely. looking forward to following as you go.

;D Thanksthompsonmx100 said:Looks good. i really like the way this bike is turning out. I am impressed at how good a cx can really look.
Staffy said:Looks like a good swap. Can you get plenty of photos up of this fork swap and give us heaps of info on what was needed to be done? I'm looking for a bigger disc and fork diameter for my front end too.
bikeboy said:Wow. that sure is a clean front end you picked up. Good score. Will you use your cx wheel? Will it accept the second disc? I only ask because there seems to be a different finish on the cb unit.

Are you using tapered roller bearings or something else?
