I've been looking for a project on Ebay (UK) for a while and picked this up at the weekend. Has been in boxes for a few years, was going to be restored by the present owner. He assures me it did run when he took it apart. At least it was cheap £250. I though I would post my progress here but it may take me a while to finish it. Stage 1 is reassemble and get it running so I can ride it next summer. It is a US import and the clocks say it has only done 17K miles. The chrome parts are seriously pitted but the forks don't look too bad. Wish me luck...

Re: CB650 Custom
sell me that exhaust Ill trade 2 in 1's for them plus cash!
Re: CB650 Custom
Thanks for the kind comments. Pbiggs, I have been trying to find out what exhaust this is, its not the original but what is it? Thanks for the offer but I am planning to use it, as it has a baffle but looks like it would sound more like an open pipe.
Currently painting the frame, wheels and forks.
