My cb500 - 72 coming along

That CB 500 looks REALLY fine. The lines are really great, not like most CB swingarm bobbers. Keep us posted on that build. I had a bobbed 77 CB750 for a summer, and man, was that thing fast and LOUD (four straight pipes!), but it sure didnt look like yours

And the answer is a resounding No on this specimen

Do me a favor and be more specific. I want the feedback...what major areas need to go?

[Whoremonger]

I think it looks real good! Only thing i would change is putting a 21 up front ^^^^

[nglshbiker]

Only thing I don't like is the fender/sissybar placement - other than that, yes a 21 would make it killer!

And the answer is a resounding No on this specimen

[tzienlee]

all it needs is a longer rear mudguard, at least the Sissybar is near enough parallel & in line with the forks which is spot on & a 21 up front will finish it off nicely.... keep picture coming as it changes...

Absolutely agree with the 21" front. The OEM version had the dual front discs and I'd like to keep them. So looking for a Harley OEM 21" dual disc with a 3/4" axle. I got new burley springs to lower the forks an inch or so. After installing a drop seat kit there's been an understeer/handling issue. From what i've read lowering the front (same amount as rear) should correct the trail and improve handling. Appreciate the comments. I'll post up once I find the wheel.
