I have seen this bike before ^. I am sure it is going to be criticized for its decreased functionality but I love it.
About 5 pages back?

Heck, Iggy, if you think that is mind-expanding, try this build on for size...

I sold my SR500's and abandoned the idea of building a similar Manx-lookalike when I found that holding onto clipons with the SR500 was like holding onto a jackhammer!   :(   It made my hands numb!  RR

Regal Schmegal..
 That would be like us making one of ours an M-V Augusta clone... total BUFFOONery & ASSHATery...

 I had a buddy rode a Hopped up XT 500 to Sturgis... 1300 miles each way...!!... not just once either.
 Left one nite for Sturgis with a guy on an SR 500.. he gave up around 2 am the first nite, I kept going.. and had a flat.. about 15 miles later.. so we were both camped on the road a few miles apart..

 The XT that went to Sturgis, I rode about an hour on it.. it was VERY buZZy.. cant say if it was a lot worse than a CB 350 though..

My experience exactly, Frank. Couldn't agree more.

But let's let the market decide about that MV Agusta styled CB750...  ??? ;) 8)  RR

Any reserve not met? Wait... really?

I'm not saying it's not a nice bike, but it's not especially rare nor does it appear that an unusual amount of work (or investment) went into it..
