Tjeeke's (the Dutch guy) CB750F1 caferacer

[tjeeke]

After finishing my CB400F caferacer --> http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=6551.msg55629#msg55629

It was time for a new conversion...

I all began with a stock CB750f1

Now It's 8 degrees raked, lowered with struts instead of rear shockers, HD tank and custom seat.
What to think about the first raw setup:

[tanker]

very promissing

 

[Hoosier Daddy]

Love it! Can you share how you raked it?

 

[xtpx]

F&$*in SICK! Keep the pictures comin man!

Also how'd you rake out the front?

 

[tjeeke]

Thanks for the great respons ;D

The raking of the frame, was a very precise job so I went to a professional frame builder.
He raked the headset for 8 degrees. 8)

 

[tjeeke]

I just couldn't wait till frame frame was ready, so I refurbished and polished the frontfork.

And I powdercoated the hubs and rims black, with new spokes. This was the first time that I spoked the hubs myself. ;D

 

[tjeeke]

Wheels are ready with Avon Speedmasters 8)

 

[tanker]

is it you Mr M black?

 

[tjeeke]

Hi Tanker,
No I'm not Matt Black from SCC, but he raked my frame and made the tank and seat. 8)

The seat is finished so sit back and....enjoy

A pair of tommaselli clip ons:

48mm SPeedometer:

Really short pair of headlight ears from a Fantic of Bultaco???

Man the build is looking good! I really like the raked out w/ clip-ons look!

 

[tjeeke]

First setup is ready 8) Now I got some wiring to do...

 

[Jimbo72]

It looks the same as mine !

 

[tjeeke]

Hi Jimbo,
That SOHC looks great. Did you also raked your frame? good luck with building it. 8)

 

[Jimbo72]

Yes mate, cut the back of the head stock until it looked right.

 

[Hoosier Daddy]

God I love that style! Almost wishing now that I had the balls to rake mine before I painted it... :

You seen these?

 

[tjeeke]

My homemade wiring loom works :
