well guys i bought another bike this week. the green cb350 was to nice to cut up so i bought this one. i have about 10 hours in work in it so far. the pics so far are all from yesterday. i am waiting on my carbs to come so i can finish the fab work. it should be done be next weekend. i am triyng ot build an old bike that fits me (small) and is almost like a modern sports bike.

Looks cool dude - Looks like you shortened the wheel base a total of about 6"?? Ride height looks badass!
That thing is going to steer quick with that steep head rake, are going custom build a new sub-frame for the seat/shock mounts? |
