I don't know if you like this sort of bike but most people find this to be "The proper bike". Now this a nice looking CB750 cafe racer done real well. The owner left very little from the original bike. If I saw right what remains is the engine, frame and headlight. All else was replaced with better parts. Installing the braced swing-arm was a bit overkill but hey I would have most probably done the same had I came upon one. The front was also replaced with a more modern item complete with dual disc brakes for some real stopping power. Notice the nice detail on that custom seat. I think the rear stoplight is from a Ducati Monster. Sounds real nice too, this engine was always sweet sounding more so with open pipes.

That is awesome! The first bike I can remember my dad having was a CB750-F, red and it was frikkin' loud, sounded great. I have a soft spot for those bikes, and this one just looks awesome.

Yep, definately very "proper bike" in my book. CB750 was a good bike, mate hade one a couple of years back, it was surprising how "modern" it was (disc brakes, power, etc.) given its age.

Mixed feelings about this. I love the bike from the front, but the modern rear light doesn't work with the rest of the bike for me. Just personal opinion.
