1982 Honda CB750C

What was your intended objective when you started the build?

Basically to finish off what the P.O. had started, but with my own vision.

I wanted a bike to take to Vintage Bike Nights.

Probably the LED indicators in the stock location on the forks, with relays added to make them function as running lights as well.

The overall astetic.

That it is cool.
