I've been lurking in the background on the SOHC site (cause you guys build some nice stuff!) whilst working on the 1979 CB900 DOHC, noticed the recent comments regarding the comstars, I decided to keep them, only polish the outer rim and paint the rest to match the stripes on the tank, black with red fleck, I agree they don't look as good as spokes (but substantially cheaper)
cheers

Hi Rude,
           very nice CB900F - I've had two; absolutely love them and can't understand why they're dismissed so readily by 'those that know'.

I think the comstars work fine on a bike like the CB900F, which was made in the modern era. It's when they get put on a bike whose lineage goes back to the 1960s that they don't look right.

If I had the budget I would love to do this to my CB550F...



Is that a 330 tire on that sharp looking CBX?

Avoir un peu d'amusement.  ;D

est-il une loi en France à utiliser la lumière jaune? Je le vois parfois, mais pas toujours.
