Hello everyone,
so it has been a long time coming...my cafe project. i have been wanting to do this for years. i just stumbled across this website about five days ago, and havent slept since. it seems i get caught up in the archives.
anyhow, here is my 73 honda cb 500. got for a pretty good price, but it looked like a sportster, with high bars, crash bars and sweet chrome and rubber grips. but i saw the potental, and here it is.
thanks, and enjoying this site.


I think that i posted this wrong....? i did it as a poll. first post for the new guy. great :-\

dang man, looks great! Are you going to paint stripes on the tank or anything?

 

[BigBSBusa]

Cool! What else you gonna do to her?

Nice bik-are you in Austin?

 

[Mowillie]

I dont think that i will be adding any kind of pin stripe to the tank... at least not at this point. i will be adding a set of honda tank badges though.
i am currently fabricating some rear sets for it. will set if they work out. i will post some pictures of them as i do it.
no, i am not in austin, but in boerne.

Wow-I imagine there's less of a scene there than in Austin. You ever make it out to the Roadrunner's show in Luckenbach?
