Lower the front and jack it up in the rear. Ok,dude, that should handle real good! Handle? Naw man. We just want it to look sweeet!
 
Went through those pics of the bike and realised i went to highschool with the guy helping him. The guy holding the shock in the one pic. Pretty cool. Hes a long ways from home

Common (and free) mod used to quicken steering response. Lowering in front decreases rake and trail, increases "flickability" and makes it easier to change lines. I did it to my Gixxer 1k by a matter of a few mm front and rear (dropping forks, shimmed rear) and bike handled like a totally different machine.
 
It is the cafe racer version of an OCC build. I am more impressed with a form follows function build, than an add some sex appeal to impress chickbuild which is what he said pretty much. Sure the paint and workmanship is first class but I'll bet I could cut a lot better lap times on that stocker than the Fuller version.

Yes mm not inches as is the case of the CB750 build. I didn't see either rider really hustling in the corners and I'd say there was a good reason for it.
 
That toe heating exhaust would hit before the suspension even mattered

Not to mention that the original owner of the bike had massive feet that just dangled in front of those pipes. Poor guy.
 
Of course, he should be riding on the balls of his feet than on the arches. I hate when I see people riding like that :-D
 
Exactly!I've had single cam 750s and it doesn't take much to make them twitchy.

You need to try a Suzuki RGV250, makes turning CB750 feel like a supertanker (even modified one running 42psi in tyres ;) )
