2014 Standard ?80s Retro Look

[Stichill]

One of the members here took a black 2014 standard and made it into a retro ‘80s-style bike. I cannot remember who that was. I think I remember that they might have had an accident with it but I’m fuzzy on details.

Anyway, I was thinking about what a cool build it is/was and would like to find some pictures and info about it.

It was Powerdubs (Josh). I believe he put his bike up for sale after his accident. The customization he did on that bike was incredible.

Hey Stichill, they have a real clean 2013 for sale up at Cadre Cycles in Blue Ash

I can’t find the pictures of Josh’s bike, but there are some of misterprofessionality’s http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=13244&pid=222522#pid222522

I like to think mine is getting pretty '80s

Anyone hear from PowerDubs lately? His camshaft thread just kinda died. Never heard the results of his dyno run, if it ever happened. Hope he's alright and recovered as much as possible.

He checks in a lot, including this morning at 10:57, but his last post was Oct 2018

Gotcha, thanks. Hope all is well.

Yes, Powerdubs! His bike was so cool!

Wow, cool. So many bikes, so little disposable liquidity. I need to get my F800GT sold and then maybe I can think about shopping for a CB1100!

Oh yeah, there it is! Thanks, Cormanus!

Another one! Thanks, spartanheed!

Definitely got it going on with the tail treatment and the turn signals! Are you going for a 750 Nighthawk look? What else else are you planning?

not the nighthawk. more pre-nighthawk. this is my muse:



What's next is actually a performance mod, so not much 80's flare. but the next aesthetic mod after that will be a paint job matching the one in the picture, along with a custom front fender to reproduce the shape and style of the one in the picture above.

acutally. i'm lying, i can't decide between the 750F paint job and the 900F paint job like so:

 

[Stichill]

Cool project! Whichever way you go, it will look great!

 

[Guth_imp]

When I think of 80's retro my thoughts go directly to the MIZ ducktail mod.

 

[GoldOxide_imp]

Guth: Yup, I can definitely identify in what you show.

Arguably, if you squint hard enough (be careful now), it almost looks like and early 80's Yamaha Seca - maybe 650 sans the dove tail, but that would still fit right into the theme. Of course, there is the shaft drive thang too.

Here is a custom cafe styled '82 Seca 650:



... and something more vanilla:

Beautiful...

 

[LongRanger_imp]

I would buy a new CB750F today if Honda still made them.

 

[GoldOxide_imp]

How 'bout the duck tail on this antique? Some of you may need to look away. You know who you are.

Gotta be black. The silver was already done on a modern re-release

Love that bike! Canada only?

The “duck tail” tail available for the CB1100 IMO is too long.

you know, i thought the same thing, but the MIZ tail is actually not too long, it's too narrow. the original was so much higher and thicker that it didn't look like such a long thing. also the seat was much taller in the back. these things change the dimensions in relation to one another.
