Hey!
« on: September 19, 2013, 08:10:21 AM »
Hey guys... name's Travis... owned a few bikes over the years but this is my first CB.  I had just sold my jeep and wanted a winter project.  So I picked up a 79 cb750 DOHC frame (with title! woohoo)... and then a deal on a "whole-ish" 78 cb750 sohc... and I snatched that bike too.  I also picked up some other random parts for my build.  I am Looking at running the 78 frame and motor, I have some random sportbike parts (forks and swingarm) I plan to update this bike a bit... but still want to keep some of the classic styling.  The 750K tank is WIDE!  probably going to narrow that a bit to clear the bars.  I have a lot of plans for this thing... interested to see how it goes... especially being my first real project/build.

There is a ton of info on here that I have been soaking up like a sponge!  Look forward to sharing my build with you guys.
