The CB Project...
«

August 02, 2008, 11:14:15 PM »
Today, we bought a 1978 Honda CB400A for $200... and boy is it a project! The plan will be to tear it down and build it back up for My Vixen to ride around being the proper Hooligan she is...
So here are some pics
What do you think? Saltlick has already stepped up with some hints and pics and such. G has a pretty good idea on what she wants the bike to turn out like (silver tank, black frame, etc)...
This is going to be fun...

That thing kicks ass. Shoot, it's got an engine and tires. Throw on some levers and call it good. The rest is personality.

why do I have to be the only negative voice?
I advise against the black frame and silver tank
I did that
and I shouldn't have
pick any color other than silver
unless it has a special meaning or something

Actually she's leaning towards a dark metallic blue for the frame and the "Paul Smart" silver for the tank... with maybe the same blue for pin stripping and such... I think it'll look hawt! It's not our fault you're color blind and such... <insert taint comment here>
Oh and mmm... ( . )( . )
