Hi there
Last year I bought an old bike for 250 euros to screw around with.
It seemed to be a cb750 or something. When I got home I looked on the internet and asked Google what sort of bike I had bought, and after the first couple of hits I realized, wow these are pretty awesome bikes.
Unfortunately I lost the pictures of the bike when I first got it.
But here is a little youtube film featuring the bike.

Skip to 1.50 for the bike.
The bike was in an odd shape best to describe as an ugly chopper that has been set on fire. It had big ape hangers, the tank and the back was covered with polyurethane foam, the original side covers where missing and the left side was replaced with a triangular peace of sheet metal that was bolted to the frame itself.
As a seat it used a passenger seat of some race bike, the rear shocks were replaced with solid bars, only one of the three brakes was working (double front disks) front and rear vendors were missing, rear frame cutoff and a big sissy bar welded on it.
And the whole package was covered with grease and flat black paint.
I'm not entirely sure what i want to to with the bike, my ideas change almost every week.
It will probably be a caferacer style ish bike, a mix between cb750cafe, wrenchmonkees and a bit mad max ratty look.
The goal is to make a nice looking fast feeling bike, but not something you want to worry about and the fast feeling, well when i finaly get my driving license i would like to keep it.
