Honda CB750 Custom (2)

There has been a longer delay on his update as I have been caught by a urgent travel arrangement at work. I struggled with time that allows me to focus on preparing all those stuffs, along with my later South Korea trip, as well as my cycling activities... not to mention the GTAV release! LOL

Anyway, here are the updates.
Things were getting finalized in terms on fit and size. I had to give up reshaping and reshaping things all the time so I could come to a point to start the actual painting job. The fuel tank would be in chrome so I have laid a good layer of base black and a prime of clear coat just to make the the foundation is right.

The chrome paint I tried this time works so perfectly and it really amazed me! It is so much better than the Alcad II #107 as I can touch it afterwards and it can also be clear coated if needed.

I got some parts from my previous M1 left over. This was the rear wheel fender that I will need to reshape it a little to fit in.

Some more parts were also getting reshaped...


Here is another view of the fuel tank and saddle.

Giving up adding more stuffs, I have started to assemble things onto the frame. 

Jesus! I actually forgot to leave room for the fuel tank cover! How could I fill up the tank without the opening?! I had no choice but o drill a center hole and then repaint the tanks all over again....

The engine tips I had 4 cups scratch built by plastic tube and sheets. It took me a couple of nights to ge these 4 done....

Finally this is getting back on the right track!

I added as many screws and pins as I can all over the frame.

And weathering on the exhausts were becoming the signature touch for any of my bikes now~~

Of course there has been to be wiring work on it so I can fire up the bike

Additional parts were added to give more rooms for wiring.

And after some nights of late sleep, the bike is almost ready to rock!

The engine starter has been customized to stay next to the engine. I will add my final touch the next.

I have only bring in one of the twin meters on this bike. Hopeful it has all the info that is needed.

The leather saddle has been refined in more different shades of  colors.

  1. I know I'm years late to this, but I am super impressed by how you are able to customize at this level. You're not an engineer by chance, are you?
