Here's what I'm working with:
...a really decent '74 CB450 that I picked up a few weeks ago.
Here's where I want to go with it aesthetically:
I know I can't do it up as an exact copy of that bike, but after poring over hundreds of pics of bikes for inspiration this is the direction I want to go.
So, DoTheTon Hive Mind, I've come to you for help: will y'all point me to parts & pieces online and help me out along the way? I've got a few hundred bucks a month to put toward this project, and I'd like to be up and running before the end of the summer.
I'm not asking for mechanical help, but aesthetic direction, links to parts, etc. I'd like to start out immediately where every cafe-enamored noob starts: with a seat and tank. Any suggestions on where I can find ones similar to the one in the bike pictured above?
