Very minimalistic Tworiversuk, I notice the force fed exhausts should give you more top end speed and the removal of the tank should give you better fuel consumption. ;D
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

I think that was just a bit of humor  ;)

Looking good by the way.  I just wish all my bikes were put together half that much.

Cheers...Joe

Sorry for the harsh reply, humour never comes fast too me, just put the exhausts on so one more pick, the tins came back from the painters and the side panel went straight back, the paint is the new Volvo black sapphire met 452, it looks like Exel black till you get up close and the metallic gold just sparkles, nice !!!

I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.
