Topic: '76 CB750F Cafe

[avgday]

Hey Everyone-
I'm relatively new to this forum but thought I should start posting some of my stuff.  First, let me say, that my builds are relatively simple and I can't hold a candle to the talents of many on this forum.  I do love reading posts and trying to sponge up the information.  The 750F is really more of a cosmetic modification than it is a build, but some may find it interesting.  I plan to make it reminiscent of a Norton Commando fastback with a Honda logo done in Norton script on the tank with racing stripes and a gold on black color scheme.  I like to put a couple of unique features into every bike I put together so I did the gas cap cover in a flying spade design containing the 59 Club logo.  I will post more pics as I go.

Here are a couple of pics of the sandcast project I recently sold.  The 750F will have the opposite color scheme- mostly metallic black with gold accents.

After a long hiatus, the 750 is closer to done.  Paint job- definitely no concourse winner!  Not bad for rattle can and a guy with mediocre paint skills.  Looks good from 10 feet away in dim lighting so good enough for me.   Still needs some mechanical attention but I've had it around the block and it rides nice!  Will post better pics soon.
