This paint job is coming out unreal and I can't wait til she goes together!! That is Real 24k gold leaf spun with all hand pinstriped red and a PIANTED logo.. no decals used. Whatcha think?!

    Re: I love Cafe Bikes...

    Thanks All!! The bike is a CB550. The tank and tail were mocked up by my co builder and then final fabbed and bodyworked and painted by me. All stripes and the logo were done in house as well. Wait til you see her finished. The frame is going to be ridiculous. I cleaned up every crevace on her and she is Smooooooth now. Pics shortly of that as its still being bodyworked right now.

    Stock 550, or did they go the extra mile and drop a 650 top end on?

    Would love to see finished product. Funny how cafe bikes are coming back. We all had them in the day. Hey, Boxmonkey, just ask Dad.

    Yummy! That's likely a bit more love than a 550 deserves, but it's tasty!
