Hey all,
Just thought I'd throw some pics of my build in here.  Here's a Before.  1975 CB750 that was cannibalized by it's last owner.

Nice. was that the 2 projects bikes on CL sav a few months ago!

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!

Yes!
The bastard stripped one down to a rolling frame and I think he put everything bad in his garage on the other.  I got 4 tanks out of it and one was the yellow one that's been redone.  Not too bad for $800, but I'm having to go through it and buy parts as I find them missing/broken.
