New brooklynite saying hey!

What's up folks. I have been lurking here for quite some time, but have not really been posting (can't post from an iPad for some reason).

I've picked up some great tips, and while I am not yet doing a straight cafe build, I have gleaned some great info. I'm addicted to the $50 mod thread, and read a bit more of it every night.

I currently have a 1976 CB550k, modded to fit my personal needs and taste (lower bars, updated gauges and idiot lights, luggage rack ad a whole ton of mechanical upgrades).

I'm in the middle of rebuilding a rear wheel from scratch, and soon to rebuild the entire front end with fresh springs and seals, wheel bearings, etc.

Oh, I also have a killer 1962 Vespa VNB.

Thanks for a great site!

Welcome to DTT Scott. Lets see the Honda (and the scooter).

Unfortunately, I don't have a great pic of the CB550. I guess I have been thinking that I'll get one when it's "finished." This is a quick one I took after installing pipes without holes in them. The Vespa shot is from a guy who is doing a photo essay book about scooters. Stopped me on the street here in Brooklyn, asking to get a few shots.
