Yes...very nice before / after pics.  Good job on that one. It will turn heads. I recall that bike in my day...I was in high school and could only afford the 175 scrambler. I did end up with a 450 then K7 a few years later. So...what is your next project???  ;D

I am working on my 75 CB 550, just routine maintance stuff. Last year I painted the side covers and tank, polished all if the thiryt + years of road grime off, I recently polished the forks and painted the brake caliper.

How did you make the chrome so clean?

How did you paint the tank and plastics?

1. It's not Chrome, it's Aluminium.  My process is listed here on page one or twohttp://www.hondatwins.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=206&st=0&sk=t&sd=a
