CB550 Project with modern parts begins
« on: June 19, 2011, 08:41:44 PM »
Hey guys,

I havent posted on here since probably 2008 ish. The bike was pretty typical cafe modded up until last week when I finished my R1 swinger swap. I also did an HID headlight conversion using some spare parts I had laying around. Next on the list is the GSXR forks that keep taunting me whenever I enter my garage....

Let me know what you guys think. Its hard to tell but the last picture has the bike with the new rear tire on it. The tire I got with the R1 parts was beyond bald.  I've put a few miles on her so far. So far so good:]
