Hi im new to the forum but i wanted to post my build so far.all the work i do myself and im self taught. i bought my 81 cb650 2 years ago for $200. ripped it appart over the winter and did all new top end gaskets, took the frame down to bare metal and painted it satin black, welded a frame loop, chopped the exhaust and welded on some turndowns on it and header wrapped it, threw on some UMI pod filters, pulled off the gauges and center kickstand and a few other unnecessary parts and a ton of other stuff i cant remember.
the bike when i got it. ugly as hell
this is actually the engne crash bar that i cut down and used as a frame loop
