This is my bike. Me and my dad built it from scratch. I painted it using metalflake and lace approach. Whadda think?

Yes I know there is dirt on the tires in the pics and I know the motor is dirty. Haven't gotten a chance to polish it all out yet.

I think you and your dad did a killer job building the bike. Nice paint too.

Suggestion; rusty diamond plate box for the battery?

You guys did an awesome job on that bike, I like the fuel gauge, those are the kind of ideas I look for. I built a '78 cb750 chopper last year that I bought a lot of aftermarket parts for but I got another new frame sitting in the shed that's gonna be a complete custom. I'll probably sell mine cause I always see things I want different

I like the idea of a scratch built bike. Hats off to you two for pulling it off nicely.

Thanx guys. I don't think i am gonna do the diamond plate box, just cause everyone i know does it. Maybe just some stainless sheet or something. I have to go get the bike from indiana right now. It is still my dad's and I am jersey now. I miss it.

Cool beans!!
There is an old KZ750 for sale that I drive past every day and I always think about it as a donor.
