howdy

i have been lurking on the msn cb450 forum and found the link to this here forum and figured i would join up

i have a 1972 cb450 that i am turning into a cafe racer, i bought it for $150 not running and no title, me and my dad cleaned the carbs and synced them and put a charged battery on it and some gas and the bike fired right up

so far i have ripped off the stock seat and mufflers and fenders and put some clubman bars on it and some rear sets and shorter louder exhaust and made a new lower seat pan and bump stop

Dude, Is that bump stop a half of a helmet?

 

[66Sprint]

I think so too....Looks like half of a German, "coal-scuttle" style "skid-lid"....Very creative!

I like the velocity stacks!
