#cb650c

Not to brag too much, but I’ll. Ever get over how well my bike turned out. I’m so fucking proud of my work and the end result is exactly what I envisioned.

Some film shots from Ryan of me and my CB650c

I started roughing in the seat pan mold tonight. Ohhhh this makes me excited when visions become objects. #cantbuyit #makeit #builtnotbought #shawnconnorsdesigns #caferacerproject #cb650c #caferacerseat

Here is the progression on the new straight line rear section of the #cb650c build. The sprocket rear loop will house two custom brake lights and the directionals. #shawnconnorsdesigns #caferacerproject #caferacer #caferacerculture #functionalart

January 24, 2015
With an extra set of hands, my dad, I took the engine apart further for a top end gasket replacement.
Wire wheeled the pistons. I plan on lapping the valves and replacing all the gaskets. Looks like the previous owner had an oil leak and just gummed it up real nice.
Been occasionally spraying some parts/prepping for assembly.
Put the reconditioned forks and suspension on. Along with the swingarm.
Gonna run a lot of crucial parts stock, and upgrade bit by bit so I can both afford it as a broke college kid, and to minimize variables in case something goes wrong.

This is the motor that the dude crashed. Using some parts until I can pull the other engine. Gonna sandblast/steel wool these parts for the outside and inside respectively. Gonna stop talking about it and put a bike together. Gonna upgrade the bike as I go.
