I didn't forget!!!

Sorry with the lack of updates lately. Been very busy at work, and hustling trying to get my latest toy rolling a few times round before the weather starts to get chilly. A 78 honda cb550. It was in a barn and hadnt been started in 10 years, and hadn't been registered for 24. I have modified it a bit to a more vintage european look. Often called a "cafe racer" (but more on that later), and got it running nicely. I am not going to currently "restore" it, as it is my first motorcycle and I'm sure it will get a little beat up. Nothing else exciting that I can think of.

BARN FRESH!!!!!



And as of now.
The seat make from scratch. Old metal, fiberglass, and a yoga mat from target. :) Will be upolstered soon
