A bit about myself, i am currently 16 years old and dont get my bike licence for another month now so i thought in the meantime ill do up a bike. I picked up this 1979 Honda Cb750 DOHC for $800. Was a coastal bike so it was a little rusty in a few spots. I live in Australia and ive been buying in quite a few parts from the states while our dollar is strong at the moment which is a bonus. warning to slow internet users.
Took the triple tree into school and had a go of the milling machine.
New clip ons bought in from the states
My father fine tuning my plaster casting work for the new seat
2 and a half inch hot dog muffler, should sound alright.
Bought later model fork uppers because the other ones where bent, these ones also sit it up a bit taller.
My first fibreglassing attempt. never fibreglassed before, a few little blemishes but later fixed up.
Situation under control
Warning light set up, gauges are just a mock up, not the gauges being used.
all the crap being taken away to get blasted.
blasted
Frame is back, powdercoated gloss black.
assembly begins
bringing the fork lowers back to life
shinyer than shiny itself
looking smart
tidying up the carbs
