Sup Fella's!!
Picked up another project to Cafe. Nothing special here. As with a million others, I was inspired by Gregs Cafes. I love the V-Twin, unique frame design, cruiser-turned-cafe, and especially how narrow these bikes can be. I'm familiar with Honda CB's and Triumphs but none with Yamaha. It'll be a learning curve but this forum is full of great info. This will be my 4th build and excited to finish it so I can ride!!
I wanted to blog the progression of my build. I'm sure I'll run into some issues, and I hope the VTF will lend an hand when needed :usa:
Project is named after my wife's nickname -- "CBass"
-------------------
Purchased in November, the day before Thanksgiving for $250 delivered on Craigslist. Came only with a bill of sale but there is a process to get it registered correctly thru CA DMV and CHP. Two days and $106 later, registered under my name
Bike was last registered in '96. It was a non runner and was pretty filthy. Missing tank, tach, headlight, and a few other thing I didn't need anyways.
