1982 Honda CB750 Project...
So I have had the itch to build a new toy but wanted something somewhat vintage. I picked up a 1982 Honda CB750 with rebuilt carbs and brand new dunlops on her. I will be building this.....
There is a place in Florida that builds these awesome JDM Cafe racers and sells them for $6500
I just got all the parts to do it myself and I will be all in under $3,000 including paint...
I am super excited...
My dream will be to add a vintage GTR to my collection, but this is a good start..."If you want to have a good time, you need to have a good watch"

sounds like a great project. The cb750 is a great base for a cafe. Can't wait to see some progress pics

I had to come back in here. I can't get over how much I love the look of that bike, and I'm not a motorcycle guy.
So $6500 for something like that? Or I imagine not that nice.
