Hello from Birmingham

[bendoug]

I've been meaning to do this intro for a while now so here goes. I live in Birmingham AL but grew up on the outskirts of town in a place called Vandiver. I ride a 1973 cb750 that is kind of a turd but I love it. Currently I am pursuing a degree in marine biology cause I love to fish (a sickly amount really) and hang out on the beach so I figure its a good major for me.
My CB is a little different than most it's not all cafe, but it's damn close. So drink a beer for me dont catch all my fish and if you see a gold helmet on blue CB chase me down and say hi.

Ha! Your first welcome was by a spambot.

Anyways, cool bike man. Have any pics from the rear? And how do you fish and ride a motorcycle? The carrying poles/tackle box along with bait and stuff has always been to much for me.

Hello, Bendoug. Your CB has a little of everything going on. That's cool. Planning on refining her any further? Lots of resources and ideas around here for 750's if you look around. Welcome to DTT.

Hey guys, thanks for the welcome!
Carrying fishing gear is easy but rigging my kayak to be. Side car is the bitch.
I do plan on adding and changing some bits to the bike, like adding an old school shop logo to the tank but I can't come up with the right idea. I was thinking something like Vandiver Cycle in a circle with the Honda wing in the middle or something along those lines.
Here are some rear shots.

Welcome to DTT man. Theres a bunch of talented art folks here. Im sure someone could help you out with a logo. Any plans on changing that seat out at somepoint?

 

[bendoug]

Maybe but i kind of like it. I know it's ugly but it has a bit of what the French would call "I don't know what". hehe
If I change it I'd like a flat basic seat kind of like what is on swapmeetlouies build off bike.
