Hey all -

Found this place via the Do The Ton boards. I've got a 74 CB450 that I'm gradually doing tasteful, reversable cafe mods to.

As it stands now:

New Tank w/ knee dents (installing today!) Matching Sidecovers

Plans:
+ Install the tank & sidecovers
+ Custom 2 into 1 headers & race muffler - anybody in Washington have suggestions on who to have do this? There's a couple places in Auburn that seem okay, but I'd rather not have to drive the whole way...
+ Kickstart Only
+ tastefully chopped rear fender, smaller light assy. Anybody know if a CB550 rear fender might fit on this one? I found one at Bent Bike, but no CB450... I'll have to return when I have accurate dimensions...

Looking forward to meeting some of y'all -

Andrew

I don't have any current pictures worth looking at. It's all taken down in various stages of assembly right now.

Here's a pic of Henry's tool box during his build: http://notropis.net/RD01.jpg :shock:







I'm kidding. Henry's bike is awesome!
