Thanks man. she is coming along. I gave the bags away months ago, sorry.

the prelude has been parked for the better part of 5 years. It has a full build 250whp NA motor and quite a bit of other work. I'm digging her out soon and getting started on her again. New motor, supercharged. seat fabric and foam were purchased on ebay from vietnam I believe. I used the...

not much progress on the bike since the last post. I was riding this 4th of july when I lost the front tire. Was able to keep the bike up and get pulled over, both of us unharmed. I've purchased for the bike: two new michelin pilot active tires two new tubes two new tube protectors EBC front...

In. Would be nice to start this riding season with some new parts!

bike passed inspection yesterday, officially on the road.

fitted the foam to the pan stretched the new cover over the foam painted under side of pan, latch, hinges, spring, affixed with new stainless bolts and washers fitted to the bike

Removed the 70's era bolt ons, minus the seat. as soon as the new seat arrives I'll post up a new picture. here's what she looks like now.

^ very helpful, thanks for the link!

so many different builds, great to see these bikes in all their different forms. great thread guys.

looks great so far, can't wait to see more progress :thumbsup:

awesome picture. I seriously considered purchasing a new CB, but I fell in love with my 71 when I saw it.

I will be removing the front fairing, front crash guard, bags, seat, backrest, and luggage rack. I'm not going to be chopping this bike up. I plan on making some modifications, but it will all be bolt on. Any original parts will be removed so they can be bolted back on with ease. The tank and...
