The green flag sets me free
This is Joe of DWMS Racing south of Dothan Al., I have a couple of bro's over here on the ton so I thought I would come hang! This is my personal cb550 bike going togethor! I started with the heart of the bike...the engine! All work,engraving, polishing, painting and fabricating was done in house personally by me! Here are a few pic's of what I have done so far!

Edited 10/17/11 - For those of you who are new to reading this thread these first photos show the engine as I was building it in a stock configuration before I decided to reverse port it, the reverse port build photos are shown later.

Very cool! Certainly one of the prettiest motors floating around here. Now lets see the rest!
 
Re: "77 Honda CB550 SuperSport By DWMS Cafe Racer / Joes Performance

Thanks everyone! The colors are titanium silver blue, flat black, and burnt copper. I do the engraving freehand with a dremel rotary tool. As for seeing the rest of the bike I am starting on the chassis now so new pic's soon!

I just started offering engraving to the public if anyone would like any done! Your design or mine!

Can't say I love all the flowers... but that motor looks good!
 
Re: "77 Honda CB550 SuperSport By DWMS Cafe Racer / Joes Performance

Very unique! Can't wait to see the rest of it. :)

OK I had a vision of a tail today that is far and beyond the scope of anything I have ever built...going to be a test in patience...but I am going to push myself to the limit on this one!

Hehehe...Yeah I have been known to get a little over passionate with my builds!
 
Re: "77 Honda CB550 SuperSport By DWMS Cafe Racer / Joes Performance

Coolest engine I've seen thus far, without a doubt. I hope the rest of the build is this good.

Thanks Bro! That is one hell of a compliment considering the company we are in here on the ton! I am starting the chassis now and have high hopes myself as this bike is very sentimental to me!

so what is used for the color within the engravings?
 
Re: "77 Honda CB550 SuperSport By DWMS Cafe Racer / Joes Performance

looks good so far, also not a fan of the flowers but respect the work and steady hand it took to do it... did you use a pencil engraver?
