time for an OD Green cb550.

I need ideas for a rifle mount for my 16in barrel m4 with 6 position stock...(im thinking maybe hard mount to right side fork lower???)

Im gonna use some 20mm cans for the luggage.

any other ideas?

Didn't you serve in the military? Whats wrong with you? LOL

Horrible.... olive drab. That is so when the dead bodies are everywhere they will not be noticeable, they will just look like bushes.

After 3-4 years of wearing a "pickle suit" every day most guys do not want to see it again unless it is on hunting clothing. LOL

Build the cafe racer. You were on the right track.

I think it would be cool to see a military looking 550 I've always been a fan of the Royal Enfields, Triumph Scrambler and the Ural's with this theme.

7 years and 3 tours. I like the od because for the last 5 years of my run all I saw was pixel and tan (blugh!). I suppose I could opt out for the satin black. to calm your nerves lol. Im just thinking of a road warrior go anywhere and hunt type bike.

Friend of mine in Prague has one of these - including the scabbard and rear bags -  and says:

I bought it in 1975 and I have been dirty ever since.

Seems like there is always a puddle underneath it.

Love the look of the old military bikes. They really look awesome for sure. Very rugged looking. A 550 would look cool with some older styling cues from the 40's. How about a side car to go with it?
