John Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 my uncle called me last week. his brother gave him a 73 honda cb750. he doesnt really want it as he already has a bike, so he called me and asked if i wanted it. ummm... let me think... free bike? HELL YES!got her home last night. here are some crappy cell phone pics.http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s72/harperlou/IMG00147.jpghttp://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s72/harperlou/IMG00148.jpghttp://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s72/harperlou/IMG00149.jpgthis thing is 1973 baller. metal flake paint on the wixom bros fairing (OLD SCHOOL) wixom fairings used to be on every kind of motorcycle way back when. road racers, tourers, salt flat bikes. they designed the "batwing" fairing which harley makes nowadays IIRC.

ReconRat Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 I always lusted over having a CB750 sohc with a Tracy body kit. Too old school now, it wasn't that good. All that frame showing under the tank and all. Tank is too small of capacity also. He's got his gauge(s) mounted down on the engine.But the current style is more likely solo seat, long tank, and fork mounted cafe fairing.check out http://www.cb750cafe.com/ , this guy is one of the hottest West Coast cafe builders around. Many different styles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
