    Almost finished, just front turn signals to put on and likely a lower set of clip-on's

    Older Repop aluminum fuel tank
    Older repop fibreglass front fairing and belly pan
    New re-pop tail unit/seat from DOREMI in Japan, actually meant for a newer CB1000 resto-mod

    Front brakes seem... temporary? Something about the lower linkage to the TRAC seems off. And is it double TRAC?

    Thanks guys.

    there are a few bits a pieces still to do

    the OEM mirrors wont actually fit this, it has an aftermarket fairing and stay, so the chrome mirrors wont even fit it.

    needs lower VF1KR bars (coming soon I think)

    Needs rear shocks with reservoir at the top (coming soon)
