welcome, I would love to see the CM when done. I finished my 400F cafe a few month back, but still have my stock CM400E. Super clean, work bike. New project is a cleaning up a 450 Nighthawk.

thanks  im trying the twins to help my skill level before I do a 4 banger,  at least the 750 4's have more parts sources and info than the little cm. If this wasnt a low low budjet bike Id put an inverted fork on it, but then that would be above my skill level too!!

How'd he polish those? Just on a wheel? Does it need a sealer afterward?

Wow, impressive polishing ..
I had several xs650's, but I like yours better. Mine were all stock,
except for the exhaust and some painted tank/sidecovers....
peace,
