jdmae, Your CB750 looks mucho better than mine...but I hope to get mine to looking at least that good by spring ;).

Here it is as-received, which is the same as it sits currently. It needs to look much more like some of the other CB750s in this thread! Drag bars and a seat are my first thoughts.

It may have looked good but it had 80k and smoked as much as my 2-stroke . I ended up selling it when the battery stopped charging and I needed some extra cash to get my GT250 finished up.

Aurgh I can not find the pixxors I have of the Virago :(

1983 920 Virago purchased with a damaged rear wheel and frame extension. Rebuilt by a local and added custom black pearl paint and polished all showing alloy while painting all reliefs/inserts black.

Nice ride, sold it too long ago for too little.

Holy E36 M3 dude. Either you are good at photoshopping out earth and making it look like sky, or your balls are bigger than I knew.

WOOO! SPROCKETS!!!

my bike is a thoroughly hacked '95 Kawi ZX6e ratbike/streetfighter:

I really need to get a quality picture of it soon! That's an old Bell helmet, Toyota Celica projector headlights, an '01 R1 tail piece, Danzka Vodka overflow tank, diy underseat exhaust, and fenders made out of license plates. Paint was done by laying fishnet stockings over red paint and fogging w/ flat black.

Right now the wheels are sitting in my dining room awaiting bearing replacement. Also needs head bearings and fork seals, a new exhaust hanger, and better fairing attachments before riding season begins. Would also like to add dirtbike bars to it...

Sold this rare thing last year:

It's a 1992 Suzuki RGV250M two stroke. Brought over from England and legally registered in the US. It's V-Twin two stroke with sliding power valves, flat slide carbs, upside down fork and a banana swing arm. About as close to a GP 250 as you could get in '92.

Now I have a '07 Hayabusa (the exact opposite philosophy of this bike) and a '99 Ducati 748, somewhere between the two:
