I hate filling my truck gas tank. So I am reincarnating my old bike. I have had it since I was 18... It's done well for me over the years. It has sat for 6 years now. I have to swap everything over to a new frame as the old one is cracked. I could write a novel about this thing and just might at some point.. lol.

this is it as it was ridden last.

This is it as of a week ago condition wise. with new frame behind it.

I will take some more soon. This project is consuming me presently.

Interesting choice in photo op location. I know the corner.

Are you going to finish it with the faring or go with the street fighter look like you ran all those years ago?

It's a 1971 cb750 with dunstall rearsets, tank and seat. And a Rickman fairing. It is not fast... But should look pretty cool again.
