does anybody know how to directly post the picts cause i hate using links?

You're already using photobucket, so all you have to do is copy and paste the [IMG] tag that's below the thumbnail on your photobucket page.

Nice looking bike, by the way! And when was the last time that grass was cut before the day you took the pictures?

...and don't let Pro Teal see those fishnets. You may want to airbrush them out.

Seriously though, nice ride. Man, that seat is looooooooow! You have any pictures from the side with someone sitting on it in the riding position?

Love the hand-tooled seat. NASTY..... in a good way of course...

Also.... what did the headlight in the 3rd pic come off off ? Beautiful.

I really like the pipes but it is hard to see how you ran them..Any other pics. Great job by the way, and man that seat is awsone. WHen I get to the end of my rebuild I am probably going to make my own seat as well.... although I am going to use the factory seat pan and go from there but I did want to but either the Honda logo on it or I am going to put 550 on it, haven't decided yet but I am no where near that stage so I guess I have plenty of time. Any ways great build, great seat, and those pipes ..great job.............Chris

snyquist53 · « **Reply #11 on:** May 16, 2007, 08:20:21 PM »

the head light is off of a newer harley duece running light. i bought an ajure 2 stage sealed bean for it.

thanks for all the compliments. i sold that 550 a month ago so no more picts till i get up with the guy. sorry.

here are some picts of the 750 seat i just finished. i'm pretty excited about this one.

it's a custom alumunium seat pan, hand tooled with 1/8 " kangaroo lacing

enjoy!

ic455 · « **Reply #12 on:** May 16, 2007, 08:21:41 PM »

That seat is sweet! You ever think about making chopper seats to sell?

snyquist53 · « **Reply #13 on:** May 16, 2007, 08:28:14 PM »

Roach Carver · « **Reply #19 on:** May 24, 2007, 05:35:02 PM »

you have the sprocket on the right? Are you planning a jack shaft?

snyquist53 · « **Reply #20 on:** May 24, 2007, 06:30:42 PM »

yeah, it's a 200 rear and it's easier to switch sides rather then offsetting it an inch and 1/2 . good observation though.

Drive comes out of the engine on the left (check yours) so using a right hand rear wheel means transfering the drive from the left to the right, usually by means of a "jack" shaft which runs through the engine. Never seen one on a SOHC Honda though.

But I could be wrong.

bill440cars · « **Reply #23 on:** May 25, 2007, 04:51:01 AM »

The "jackshafts" I've seen are an assembly of a shaft with sprockets on both ends and mounted between the trans and the rear wheel allowing the drive chain to the rear wheel to be on the other side.
Later on, Bill

Great pics of the CB750 and I like the detailing on it. Looking forward to seeing more!!

(and your g/f is hot as well ;-))

cheers
