Badass!  Helluva bike. Wonder if it's an old build or new build? What's with the external oil pump??!!

Hope you invited this guy to join us!!

I'm guessing fuel pump for the Hilborns rather than oil pump.

Some passing resemblance here.  Boy that must have been a very expensive and time consuming build....

Now can we convince the owner to put a slick and wheelie bars on the back and take it to the track? :D

The builder is Kiyo (Kiyo's Garage) in Inglewood.  He used to be Yoshi's fabricator at The Garage Company. 
https://www.facebook.com/people/Kiyo-Garage/100009161228413

He's done a number of drag CB750.  This one had dual 810cc motors.  Super nice guy.  He was an invited builder and won the competition for the Invited Builder category at Born Free 8 last weekend.  He's been an invited builder for a few years running -- and pretty much the only one who builds with a CB750.

Kiyo did most of the fabrication work for Vincent (CR750 for the Street build).
