New Guy in Edmonton

Hi all,
Thought I better introduce myself. I stumbled across the forum yesterday looking at some amazing CB400's being cafe'd out. I am a die hard cafe fan and up here there isn't many although it is starting to catch on.
I built my Triumph Bonneville and I built a friends Bonneville over the winter as well. I have also been restoring a Suzuki GS400, 1977 vintage. I am gearing up for another build this winter, more than likely a Scrambler or Thruxton.
Here is my Bonneville:

Welcome to DTT, and nice Hinkley man. I dig the paint.

Thanks. I did it all myself. It is 24K Gold leaf. It's under about 6 coats of polished lacquer. Looks fantastic in person, hard to capture the machine swirls on camera.
