Thank you.

She showed quite well yesterday. I had to explain to a couple older gents and one woman that I was in fact, not missing half of the swingarm.

I love that '77 Daytona 400. I had '72, 73, 74, 75 & 76, never a '77.

That Daytona was the business. He was leaving sportbikes through the twisties. He knew how to ride that thing.

RDs can whip most 70s super fours.

In MX 250 2 stroke competes in the 450 4 stroke races, not so much at Nationals, but regionals and at Lorettas this year lots of 2 smokin going on.

Getting some saddle time in today. Rides well, turns better than expected. Wheelbase is 1.250" longer than stock. Sounds great, moderately comfortable. I'd have no problem hopping on and doing 3-400 miles. Doing it this next weekend.

Be sure to get some good pics for the banner!

Good to hear, I'm rolling mine out with 4.5" of extension, but have another same swinger shortened for stock wb sucked in and 2" of adjustment so could be in the +1" zone depending on chain stretch.

2nd the banner picks, wish it would wait a month, I think there will be several CB750's roll out next month.

Appreciate the nomination, DOHC! I just wrapped a 73 500 build today, I have a photog friend that is begging me to do a photo shoot with her. Be a good reason to say yes.

More pictures would be great. I have almost the exact same bike.

Same to you, X.

Red, I'll try to snap some more. Have been busy riding her, getting some kinks worked out. Have put right about 500 miles on here in the last couple days. Try to do another 500 by Friday, polish her up, and head to Bikes, Blues, and BBQ. Expecting half a million bikes on The Hill this year.

Still adding bits and pieces here and there.

True what they say, never finished.

Little billet cap to close the axle up.

Closed off the back of the seat with a piece of alloy sheet I had left over.

Billet reservoir caps front and back. Going to turn some billet reservoirs when I have the time.

Ignition cover had some scratches in her, turned a new one of those too.

Last post on page 5. Just finish work after putting a whole lotta miles on her.

Also, ditched the Cycle X dual carb set up, in lieu of Murray's (cxman). Very, very happy I did.

Built a couple brackets to brace my carbs.

The new insulators I bought for the head seem super soft, so, I eliminated the movement. Synced the carbs, and back to roaring she is.

I am ridiculously happy with Murray's carbs system. It pretty damn solid.
