Hello all, I'm in the process of building my first cafe style bike, a 1973 CB450. I've been riding for several years (crotch rockets), and have fallen in love with cafe style bikes. The bike is pretty much someone elses nightmare right now, but plan to have it done before the summer is over. My goal is to have a cafe with a modern flare, aka fat newer sport bike tire, all disc brakes, LED tailight/turns, etc. This is my first ever bike build. I do my own maintenence on all my bikes, but have never torn one down. So I'm sure I'll plenty of stupid noob questions for ya'll along the way :) :)
