I forgot to mention but you can probably see in the pic, I shortened the pods up quite a bit! They're about 3/4" now instead of the 3" or whatever they use to be. I am hoping that will help with vacuum, I have a jet kit just in case... I also need to finish mounting the seat, I just have the...

I've got one off my '80 750C if that'll work for ya?

and the pretty exhaust all coated, wrapped and coated again. Only complaint is that the one header, I couldn't fit the wrap between the pipes so I had to wrap the together for part of the way. Doesn't look too bad but not exactly as good as I was hoping. the other one is pretty much perfect...

Also got my tail/brake lights today, ditched the ugly ass chrome, obviously and got them put on. They fit PERFECTLY in the old fender support holes on the swing arm, coulsn't have made them fit any better if I tried.

Well, I got my headlight taken care of. This is the kind of thing I love, I couldn't find anything like I was looking for at junkyards or anything. I was mowing, hit something and BOOM, there it is, exactly what I have been looking for!! Used some 3M panel adhesive and glued it to the stock...

there's a hundred drifferent styles and a million different prices, but this is the basic idea if what I am planning to run. http://www.ebay.com/itm/MPH-KMH-LCD-Digital-Odometer-Speedometer-Tachometer-4-Stroke-Motorcycle-Honda-/161245605198?_trksid=p2054897.l5664 Could very easily (and most...

speedometers aren't off by a certain "MPH" but rather by a certain %, which is why the amount it is off increases as speed does. I'm replacing the gauges on my bobber build but I'm going with one of those cheap "all in one" units from Japan. Mainly just because I like the look..

Headers coated and wrapped, waiting for them to dry and I'll be coating them again. Pretty happy with the result so far, first time every doing it, took me about an hour each. I think they're sexy. :-)

getting frustrated, trying to figure out how to mount my seat. -_- the seat is meant for a hard tail so it has the front pivot point and rear springs. Obviously, I am not trying to do it that way but am coming up a little short on ideas for mounting it. Well, I know what I WANT to do but I...

Thanks but I just took it up and had it welded/machined down. Ran me $80 but it was done in an hour and I got to support a small, local business so I can't complain. It turned out pretty good, My risers should be here tomorrow so I should have an update to my build thread where the upper will...

Guess I'll just take it up an have it filled in and milled down. Not going to get ^^THAT^^ carried away though. LOL

Didn't do too much, I just shaved the triple tree upper a good bit. Doesn't sound like much but I did it with a hack saw and a hand file. If you see the before/after pics, you can probably imagine it was a bit of a pain in the ass. Nothing feels better to me than doing shit old school though...

my build, if you're interested... http://www.cb750.com/threads/2213-My-100-CB750-Bobber-build

Got the harness all stripped down to only what I must have, headlight, taillight and ignition. Won't be running turn signals or any of the dummy lights, horn, etc... Still have to make it look a little nicer on the bike but it's all there and functional. Got the hidden ignition and push button...
