And for the eagle eyed, I fixed the leaky neutral switch so no more cardboard!
K7 seat, K8 badges. Which one is it? Well, definitely very good looking, nicely kept. Thumbs up.

I'm not usually big on the chops but that bike is sick! I like em long and low.

My garage looks like a bomb went off with two in pieces and one missing a seat.
Best I can do now...

Not a recent picture, probably a year ago or so but here is Dash (1976 CB550), Bernadette (2005 S2R 800) and a peak of The Beast (vespa)

Not the best pic, but I've got a full house at the moment! R-->L: 1983 CB1000C, 1980 CL112.5, 1976 KZ400, 1976 CB750F, some ridiculous Triumph 2300cc monster, @Spanner1's 1970 CB750 K0 peeking around the back. Not shown: my "new" 1980 C70 Passport.

Ha, good catch. When I purchased the bike it had a Corbin seat mounted. The original was in a storage box pretty much since new. I purchased a K7 seat from our very own MoMo and put the original back in storage. So, it's a K8 with a K7 seat.

Taken some time ago, the 500 on the left is off the road now but the 550F on the right is now up and running and is currently my daily ride.

Thanks, I rode the 4 that are running tonight to make sure the fuel in the carbs is fresh, of course the yamaha acted up, I think  the #3 CV carb is sticky. I moved them to the rear shop and began preassembly of the cb400f airbox and parts check. I took a driveway pic but the camera is still out there.

Both bikes gassed up and ready to go -  can't get much better than that!  Well maybe 3 would be 1 better?   ;D

Hey Cqyqte, Not sure if I have ever mentioned it before, but I love the looks of this bike. I admire the lines (curves) every time I see it. Truly a work of art.

I noticed you recently moved your foot controls from forward to rear. Like to hear your thoughts regarding that. Like... Why? Boredom? Long winter in the northern provinces? What do you like better?
I agree. That is a kickarse looking custom. Well done proud owner.
