Project "name pending" 78 CB750 - FINISHED (last summer)

Wow! What a weird past 12 months. Although I finished my project last summer (at the end of it of course), I'm just now getting around to posting a finished build thread. Since finishing this beast I've picked up a CB 360 to finish for my wife, a 1950 mercury "lead sled" as my new big project and spent the last 3-4 months training/orienting in a new job role. I cannot believe its been so long since posting anything on here. Here is a link to my original build thread.

And here is my finished product. There is a "gap" in pics from that thread to this one because I killed a hard drive real good and lost a whole #$%* load of pics.

I'll get some more closer up pics and angles in the next few days. But for now here's some recent pics:

Excellent styling. The bike flows so well. The bodywork looks great. Love the creativity of the rearsets mounts too. Job well done ;)
 
Looks great! You may want to check that front tire though. It looks like it's mounted backwards. The tread on those Avons should be opposite front to rear...
 
rad! great work...
and ditto about the tire...as funky as it may look, its true lol..
again, love the bike.
 
Your bike look AWESOME!

Question about your battery, I think I have the same one, but have yet to install it (my bike is completely apart). Are you able to use it fine with a starter, or are you doing kick-only?

Its the same specs as the factory battery. Works great with the starter.

THANK YOU!!! For pointing that out. Just had it turned around today... I appreciate the sharp eye!
 
Hey timdhawk, I just noticed you're in Billings. t71ford and myself are in Bozeman. If you ever plan on riding your 750 over this way, give us a shout!
