New member here from South East Michigan
« on: August 21, 2019, 08:27:12 AM »
Just pulled a 1978 CB750f out of a junk yard. This will be my second full restoration project. First one was an 87 honda rebel. I'm going for a café racer build this time.

This community seems pretty awesome, cant wait to be apart of it! Messages always welcomed.
