Hello from London!
« on: October 14, 2018, 05:21:43 AM »
Hi guys! Nice to meet you all. I am Alessandro, Italian architect living in London.
I recently bought my first motorbike, a '77 Honda CB550 F. I am a total newbie!
I am trying to customise it and I know have a long journey ahead...

At the moment I am working just on the tank. I am painting it black. The slots for the emblems were filled and I am restoring a sort of original look for it.
I’d like to understand more about the pop filters and I don’t really like the exhaust... but it’s all work in progress. I guess you guys of the forum will be helpful!
