Hi all I based this build on my first Honda 750 (she was a bit of a rat but I loved her)

Next bit on the poor old girl.

Reminds me of my bike, went abroad working for 10 years and left the Honda covered in grease and covered in dust sheets, got back and though a quick touch up and away we would go. Mine was the SOHC CB750.

The reality was a lot different and resulted in a 2 year total rebuild, here is the frame after I had stripped the bike down, you seem to have got the rust in all the right places !.

It turned out well though.

 

Cheers

Hi Dennis I really loved my Honda.

My fave apart from my last which was a triumph trophy 900, I still miss that bike, I felt like king of the road on that bike.

How am I missing all these great builds ! Looks fantastic!. I had a custom 650 Honda in a harly frame I built , loved it. Also a GPZ 550 that you couldn't hurt. Last bike was my first new bike was a Honda RR600RR. GOD I LOVED THAT BIKE....harv.  ( sorry for stepping on your post)

More updates.

I loved these kits so much I've built most of them more than once.

I must admit I felt a bit peed off I put this and another on ebay and I got £4.70 for both of them I decided I would rather bin models after that, I thought I might have got enough to buy another kit from those 2

Here's another update on this one.

Exactly!

Here you go done.

As I said this and one other build went for £4.70 on ebay, I wish I'd never done that I'd rather have burnt them.

Love it. Really good work.....harv
