I got a message from return of the cafe racers and got to honor to be featured on the website returnofthecaferacers.com I'm completely overwhelmed with the love I got on all of this. Thank you to all. Here's the link for the article for my bike

Congrats.  Now don't go becoming an Instagram whore!  Too bad the photos on the site came out lower resolution than yours in the thread. 

I said it in the nomination thread but no harm in repeating: this is a truly impressive first build for such a young builder/owner with so much done by the owner and done so well.  You deserve to be proud!

i know its not a sohc and shouldn't be on here and i won't be posting this build here but i will be starting my next build. its a 1979 cx500 custom i had sitting around for a year or so. it's a mostly original, one owner bike with 17,000 miles. so I'm pretty excited about this build, and kinda have a vision for it already.
