Another impulse buy CX500
Re: Another impulse buy CX500
Is the plan to keep or flog this when it's done... Or have you not decided yet?rumpoldstilskin wrote:I have that deluxe tank too but its just so big, i want the engine to be the focal point as its so original and clean, looks new almostStumoores wrote:The original tank and USD forks throw the eye a bit I think. That rear sub is not that far from standard height. It’s not as simple as most folk think this custom game is it ? Using other builds for inspiration is defo the way forward.
That CB500 is the dogs bollox apart from the Akro sticker on the end can (or is it just me ?)

Problem is its modified to my taste and not generic. I have a BMW R80 that will be getting similar treatment but its a modular bike and easier to mod as you can buy stuff off the shelf that just bolts on, the loom even splits! How forward thinking of ze Germans.

The old boxers are the best and the only ones I'd give garage space.

No news on the exhaust welder but i now have two sets that need making so it could be surely worth it for someone.
My garage is being sorted out at the moment so more updates soon, need organised space.
