That's lovely too, lash. That's 5 CB750s?

I’m at 6 right now, maybe do a brown one next..

Fabulous collection Lash, some beautiful pieces of Honda history which ultimately led to the creation of this K10. Thanks for posting.


Quick update tonight. I was hoping to collect the freshly liveried parts from the paint shop this afternoon but had to leave them there. We were not 100% happy with the depth of the lacquer finish, so Mike graciously agreed and offered to flat them off and give everything another coat. Might get a call tomorrow, but more likely to be able to collect them next week sometime.
Sorry PB, you will just have to wait a few more days until the big reveal!

But not to worry, it's only a bike and I have another one to play with. So the good news is that this has given me time tonight to play with the CAD again and see what I could come up with for some replacement front disc mounting bells. Since I didn't have chance last night to take dimensions I estimated the overall size and slot shapes for the dinner plates from my photos. After a couple of adjustments I think I got it in ballpark, then and after 5 or 6 re-draws of the new slot shapes the final design I came up with to me looked "right". What do you think? Should look great in a gold anodised finish.

Talking about gold anodising, I did get some more good news tonight in that B&C Express have despatched the new custom rear sprocket which is scheduled for delivery on Tuesday. Whoopee!

Hey, if all goes to plan, this time next week Rodney we might have a Honda 1100 Four to ride...
