Gorgeous! Excellent work! I can only hope to get mine to look half as nice as that. Great job!

Thanks Gary, I found that coming up with and fabricating the "details" were the most fun, a lot of time being able to see an alternate use for something laying around the garage.

Thanks Pony, Keep plugin away and don't loose faith. You'll get a lot of help and inspiration here on DTT.

Took me almost 4 years from when I bought it, I did have a half a dozen "affairs" with other Honda's along the way that did distract me, including picking up this Mistress along the way.

How'd you jet the vm30's and would you recommend the vm32's or is that overkill? I'd like to hear it run. Youtube video in the near future?
 
Well I got nominated for BOTM, (Thank you Gary & TruePunk) Like I have chance against the Bad Ass H1,

But if Little Twins are your thing.... ;)

You have my vote as well. Thanks for all the inspiration. I am still wanting to get mine rideable and learn on it. My father has it so burried in his garage that I can't get it out lol.

hey Frankenfe nice work have a question for ya,

how did you do those sporty foot pegs with all the controls which bikes they came from and how hard it was to do it ? thanks
 
CBR600 F3 ('98 or '99 I Think) Rear Sets. Bungs got Welded to frame to mount them. Shifter side is easy peasy to do linkage, Brake side was not as easy. I probably over "thought" & over engineered the Brake Linkage, but I don't like the idea of flipping the Back Plate lever up and turning into a "Push" vs "Pull" action like a lot of OP do. I also wanted to keep the relationship of the Brake Rod & Swing Arm Pivot close like Original design.
 
Frankenfe, Your CM400 Cafe looks so good! Well done man, it gives me hope for getting my bike done haha. I also have a bunch of plans for the 2k og mile CX parts bike I picked up. It's super clean. I'm gonna go for laid back bobber, Norman Hyde "M"bars, short shocks, fatty touring tires and probably make the seat myself. I'm thinking Burnt Gold, Black and Aluminum color scheme. Hope all is well for you man.
