Only a few people have CB's

Here's the bike with the new seat. It was made to fit the stock pan so it is a 30 second swap back to the 2-up seat and it offers a decent amount of padding. With the pan and powder coating, foam and upholstery I'm in it just under $200 and the bike is starting to look like a little cafe racer.

We are still considering paint. The old school gold is getting cooler by the day. I have an extra tank and side covers that could go red or even flat black. Right now I have a set of rims with new spokes and newly polished hubs that are out being powder coated red. We are going to put those on and then decide where to go with color.

In the mean time Scooters been riding all over town and when we are out riding together he gets a lot more attention then me. He told me "Dad everyone has a chopper, only a few people have CB's"

  1. Hey there. I have a Honda CB200 myself as well, but you're lucky enough to get it running. Mine is having some engine problems that I can't figure out so it's at my friend's house for now.

    I hope to get my bike looking sweet like yours.
