I am not sure if this is the right place to share this on the forum. Is there a special projects section? Not like retarded special but like you know...bike special.
This is my attempt at a bullshit hipster bike.
I started with this 1971-1976 Honda CB750. Frame/motor are '71 but there are several bits from a '76.

The entire front end from clip ons to rubber are off an '07 GSXR 600. Rear tire/brake off a '97 CBR 600F3. Rear swing arm from a '75 Honda CB550. Modified gas tank is from a '74 Honda CB500Twin.
I'll hopefully have it off to paint/powdercoat in a few weeks.

That's badass man! I love how much you're changing on it, yet it still looks straight from the 70s. I'd love to get my hands on one of the 750 2 strokes from back in the day and do something similar.

Reminds me of a project bike my Dad and I did. Just a CL360, but they look remarkably similar.

Awesome work. I'm more intrigued by that early E-type shell in the background.

Pretty cool man, nothing like retro bikes.
