This would have to piss Santa off trying to wrap this up too. 
It'd be cool mowing the lawn man.
Far out, solid and right on. 

Damn! Now I want a Lawn Punk bike!

Me too, then I would actually look forward to cutting the lawn!

I have been considering a new style that I would describe as PioneerPunk.  My artistic vision sees the blending of an early CB750 with a Conestoga wagon.  I am still working out the details but I am hoping that I can count on the artistic vision of some of you to help with this project.  I have the wagon and am now looking for an early CB750 to hack up  customize to make this project a testament  to my trendsetting vision.

6 pages of people bashing this guy for having the audacity to (a) have his own visions and (b) not ask Terry for his permission to build it. I notice he has stopped commenting, I hope that isn't because you guys haven't chased him off.

This is a great forum that I am proud to be a member of and which I promote to other SOHC4 owners when I meet them (I made up business cards with my forum name and the address along with the Naked Goldwing forum and the MG Experience). But I am rather ashamed of how the original poster was treated in this case.

Thanks...as this project will likely be heavier than a standard CB750 the extra power that  pods provide will be very helpful.

I am not sure you have really grasped my vision.  The CB750 will replace the oxen as motive power.......although your offer has me thinking...... I would like the exhaust to smell like horse or ox sh!t.

+1 to Banker.

noddy78 can handle a little harmless joke?its just that coming from Tassie his left head cant make up his right heads mind?

[Bankerdanny]

6 pages of insults seems like more than a joke to me Dave.

You take the good with the bad, it's part of life. It's his bike, he's going to do whatever he wants with it. If this is his dream, he'll build it and not let us deter him.

I personally hate everyone on this forum.

I think your reading into it what you want, this is opinion with humor and Noddy doesn't seem to be upset at all, he's an Aussie anyway, we have a different sense of humor mate and from reading Noddy's replies he has too, some of you seem to be more offended than the OP, if thats what you need to get you through the day then go hard....

[Retro Rocket]

Bloody humour, as an Aussie I thought you would use the correct spell check. 
AHH, red red wine #doo doo doode doo#

Yes Lester,  I use Amerienglish here mate....

[754]

Maybe we just should get back to working on the bikes and helping each other..

[754]

Dont go Suzipunk on us now...

[Wiggy_NZ]

Exactly what Terry said    I have seen over the years the same thing on different bikes...  pl..dy shame

Hey terry, I looked for years to find a halfway decent un-molested kz1000 or Z1 local to me and would get excited when i saw one cheap for sale and then upset that it was bobbed chopped cafed etc. and usually they say "built this last year, rode a few times time to sell..." And all I can think is, why? You took a stocker cut it up realized its not what you want and wanna sell now? It gets annoying.

Now, still cant find a good 750 honda since i sold the supersport i had

Why did you sell it??

[floivanus]

Cuz it was a supersport  I want a plain jane POS standard 750, not the supersport those look strange to me

[DustyRags]

I'm with Banker on this- for the first time, I don't really want to be known to be part of this forum. Opinions are fine, preference for stock is fine, but mocking a new buy who has the audacity to do something original (to this forum)? That's harsh, folks.

At least Terry, all mocking notwithstanding, had the balls to offer an alternative.

Y'all are better than that. #$%*ing act like it.

^^ the thread that keeps on giving^^

I don't think of a 750K as a piece of $hit (POS) but I don't think of a SS as strange either. You should take a closer look at Doctor D's super sport super performance build or Tweakin's 2 super sport builds, or Mad Scientist's build.

I avoided buying a SS when I bought my 2 750s because parts were more plentiful for the K models.  IMHO the SS tank has much better lines.

[floivanus]

To me the K is better, the lines and bodywork all are perfect.

The F model, too square, went to a great home. Bouncing around craigslist for six months
