Thanks, will amend my schoolboy error accordingly.

I'd say the best of the early style retro CB I have seen.

Only nitpicks I'd say-which are totally personal preference- would be to add shocks with a long chrome cover, remove the rear 'garnish' that don't fit the old style, and add a grab bar.

But that's me. You be you. And be VERY proud of the work you put into it and what the result is.

99% of people will think it is OLD.

Here is my old '76 for comparison-

Thank you!
And of course to make people think the bike was a lot older than it is was the plan from the outset - thanks to White House for making it happen.

The CB is on the road but that doesn't mean it's finished. As you rightly point out, the alloy doesn't work so well so I've already been working out how to replace the 2014 grab rails with an old school chrome tube version...

That's lovely.
I'm also glad I'm not the only one with the Honda wings pointing backwards. Beer



As far as I know- the wings on my '76 were factory. That picture is from over 20 years ago- and to my knowledge the bike was stock and unmolested.



As for the side garnish- just take it off, and bolt on the grab bar.


That is what I did to my bike-
