And it's done

Finished my cb750  8)

Put some pipes on, billet triple and some clip ons rather then the bars from the previous look.

Enjoy

This look just like one of the bikes from Dime city cycles facebook page. If it is, the 4-1 looks and probably sounds 100x's than the drag pipes. Super clean, beautiful bike though. Makes me wish I would have stuck with a stock tank for my bike.

Love it.  Especially the seat.  If you made the seat, then I'd be interested to learn more about the process (foam, upholstry, pan, etc).

Thanks. Same bike I just put the pipes on last night, it actually sounds almost the same just a bit cleaner sounding.

Thanks, It's the superside winder from cycle x

Thanks! I actually made the pan out of the stock seat pan and had a friend of mine cove it, imo it could use more padding hahah

Thanks for all the comments,
Mike

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!

Wow.  I love it.  It's a perfect blend of cafe and original.  It has the best of both worlds.  I do agree that if it were mine I would put a stubby fender on it but it ain't mine!  It looks real nice. It will turn heads where ever it goes.

I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

No, I'm in Calgary Alberta

Thanks! The tires really are not as bad as everyone assumes they would be but none the less they are not for railing through the corners. That being said the bike wasnt built to handle it was built to cruise and look good  ;)

Thanks. I'm actually making a stubby rear fender this weekend, I though I would mount the plate on the back almost like a fender but it looked a little goofy. This bike will be a never ending project hahaha

Thanks. The triple came from cycle x

It would be first in a long time if I nominated it. I don't nominate bikes anymore. I just suggest.
