I've been toying with the idea of a sports version of the CB for a while. Weight saving I've found to be the best thing for the bike.

Spot on beardy, weight is this bikes enemy when it comes to performance that and its ability to turn in and change direction mid corner both i have addressed to my satisfaction
Some would say that this is not what the bike was designed for but i bought it to build the best twin shock 80s race bike look that i could do
Mods include the
17 inch wheel conversion large weight saving
yamaha yzf750r twin piston underslung rear caliper
triumph 250 mill rear disc
525 chain conversion more weight off
19 tooth front sprocket
41 tooth rear
320 mil NG discs 1 kilo less then original
braided brake lines
andreani fork cartridges
power commander 5
auto tuner
arrow header pipes again less weight
mega cycle custom made reverse cone silencer
alloy open mouth air filter housing
remote shocks with 1 inch longer ends then the standard length
custom rear seat cowling with cut down yzf750 seat
no centre stand more weight off
drilled holes in everything little bit of weight off

To come // alloy over swing arm and alloy fuel tank then probably a divorse when my wife finds the reciepts
