Cool rear suspension set up


Nice bike....tank sticker is just wrong, IMHO....he should have cut around the circle...otherwise VERY nice.....love the sprocket cover cut outs!

i'd have to agree about the sticker. i like the tail light. looks like a triumph car unit.  ???

i'd like close ups of the front and, especially, rear suspensions.

Here is my 2 cents. The sticker looks like its just taped on there. Its one of the vinyl peel away kind. the rear end i would move the part of the frame that the rearset is on. Bring it up kinda like squirleys frame was. And like you said i like to see a closer look at the rear end. It looks a little thin to me. But a beautiful bike with some actual thought and elbow grease i can always appreciate.

I'm not sure how scary they are, but very interesting wheel treatment.  Anybody have more info on this CB750?  Thanks.  RR

I must be blind.  I can't find a throttle or clutch on this bike.

Guess that's one way to get a super "clean" look.
Take care,
David

I think it has a foot clutch and hand gear change. I assume it has an internal throttle system.
