Needs a longer linkage for gearchange, the angle's 'wrong'
 Nice bike though, even though I don't like headlight brackets
quarter turn throttle may be a bit much for street use?

Those look like early CB750 calipers on the Harley racer. Hey, even on on the back.  ;D

I thought so at first too. But Hush's bike is a CP650. Compared side to side easy to see the differences. The CP750 above has the louvres in the side covers.

 That's because they are Honda calipers.

In a lot of the early early 70's chopper mags I have seen a lot of diffrent bikes with, sometimes, just plain goofy brackets and mounts to use the CB750 disk and caliper. Mostly on show bikes. I assume because disk brakes were then the big new (cheapest?) thing. When I saw that rear brake set-up that was the first thing I thought of.

To each his own, yes, for my part, kidding.
The carb setup must have been a body of work, not to mention the ironwork
