From what I see here, it is nicely done.  Good job!  If you say your bikes name three times in the mirror does it start up and drive you home from the bar or something?

It is a proven fact that modifying a SOHC Honda in any way will bring on the apocalypse.

THAT's a cryptic reference.

the build was a long time in the making.  i started with a rollin chassis and went from there.had some help here and there but i needed to learn so i went backwards a few times.......needless to say.  put a sportser front end on instead of the springer that came..the springer was death..   i would need a calculator for how many times i had to take the carbs on and off again.  insanity at times.  now they are going well.  ill put up some more pics
