This is no 1979 frame (like written in your profile).
Rims are not CB650, probably not even Honda (Yamaha?). Interestingly front disk is at the right fork leg while all Honda single disk models seem to have it on the left.

Please do a favour to an old man and provide a larger picture. I think up to 250kB should work for direct forum upload. :wink:

It is a 79 frame it says it on the head tube. Also they are xs400 rims and front fork I will upload a better picture when I get home. And yes it's a cb650 engine freshly rebuilt.

You are right, 79 frame, I was a bit irritated by the missing rear part.

I like those wheels..... and the tires look nice too.

I seriously don't see a "stock restore" so.... Bob it, your own style to fit your comfort needs. Do you have a tank or anything else to go along with it?

Thanks for the larger picture.
It's obviously stripped right to the bare metal. :wink:
