I think that's one of Carpy's machines. There's a few vids and yeah, it makes me want his Yosh knockoff pipe and a few thousand dollars to tweak my motor.

watching that video made me glad i send all my heads out to the machine shop for reconditioning... under a hundred and it comes back way better than new. can't do a three-angle valve grind sitting on a tire.  ;)

The guy seriously needs to think about getting himself a workbench at least, and a bike bench at best.
But still, good inspiration for those of us that lack the space/finances for such niceties.

The sound in that dyno test made me turgid in my neither regions!   ;D
It is a proven fact that modifying a SOHC Honda in any way will bring on the apocalypse.

I think he needs to authenticate that with his before, during, and after dyno charts.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

Turgid? Dyno video sounded amazing. I liked the fast forward video putting it all back together. Wish I could get mine done that quick! And he is doing better than this guy as far as shop amenities... Although a good work bench and lift are high on my wish list too. First I need a roof and four walls to work in/under!!!
