@sbc63trls250 I am pretty sure that the front end is from a GL1000. The hard tail was hand crafted along with the rest of the custom work by Mike Leasure at King Custom Cycles.
I can't remember what size jets I ended up running. It took a little trial and error before I got the right jets. The exhaust had no baffles, full open straight pipes that sounded pretty awesome.
wow man. that rr fender is skin tight! aren't you afraid of the tire hitting it when you hit a bump? kidding! i really dig it though. i got a hard on to get one of these motors in a rigid and put something together similar to this. it looks kindv'e empty in the rear though, is something missing? whats that tank?
@wanderer1031 The rear might look kind of empty because there is no rear suspension. Nothing is missing though. I rode this bike for one year then sold it. It was a fun bike and always got a lot of attention and compliments. The tank is a Harley Sportster tank. Oh and a lot of people thought the fender was too close to the tire, but I never had any problems with it.
I got a 1980 CB750C with the thought of bobbering it, restored from seized and put on those cone filters like you have there... but Im gonna ride it out and save for a vtwin. Besides with the kerker I have on it sounds almost like this anyways. Straight pipes make it sound MEAN tho! (monkeyed a pipe onto the collector and it was AWESOME!)
Oh and I want wire wheels, they're so sweet! Gonna live with comstar since Im leaving it stock tho. Get some ride action videos!
are those stock forks? also custom hard tail or a kit?
thanks

@Steelheart8280 It is the original frame that had the rear section cut and a rigid section welded on.
