I was trying to wrap my head around how it would "fit" the look of the CB, what with all its shiny parts and beauty, thinking it would look better on a cafe'd or "flat black" bike look.

BUT...The finished product looks absolutely fantastic and will complement the shiny black nicely. Nice work!


It's a classic Honda look (as well as other makes)- Thumbs Up

That looks very nice. I wonder how hard it would be to do that to the rims to just below the spokes?

I had a Nighthawk 650....shaft drive and hydrolically adjusted valves....vertually a maintenance free bike!
Hey Josh....lots of guys on the ZRXOA site removed the paint on the lower part of the rims.....do a search if you haven't already done so and you can see what stripper worked the best.

Josh You are getting the old brain cell to fire a little. I like the black bike but it is a little to black. Thinking of making some changes along the same lines as you. Keep it coming.Clap

Let's start on the 'dry side' while the oil drains.
