Hondaha CBR5

I found this UK Japan CBX250RS that had titling issues and motor that needed parts that could not be sourced sooo, I took all of the parts and made them fit on my 1970 Yamaha R5. 3" over boxed swing arm, super light alloy wheels and hubs, Fz600 forks R5 frame and motor. Still has a way to go..

Did these a few years back as well.

Nice update on the R5. Good to see someone trying something different from the cookie cutter flat seats or hacked off back ends with fuel tanks for seats and so on.

Innovation is good and much as I loved my 57 T100, and Doors and protest songs, I like innovation even more.

Thanks teaser, the goal is light as possible and something no one can figure out with a quick glance. It does look more RZ'ish than anything but maybe if I use a color other than yellow and black......

If you adapt a CB1100R tank color scheme, it would really confuse people. Yellow and black would also drive them nuts.
