Project MotoJackD: Update 2

Engine Here are a few close-up pics I took with my new camera. Progress is moving along – I’m currently cleaning up the pieces of the bike I am going to salvage. Overall, most of the bike’s parts are in great shape – I think I’ll be able to use most everything that came with it.

I’ve also been gathering inspiration and information from a number of websites including:

http://www.mrcycles.com/ – pick your bike and get exploded views of almost every section of the bike!

http://www.benjiescaferacer.com/ – plenty of cafe racers to check out, plenty of parts too!

http://www.ohiocaferacers.com/ – another great resource for info and mods!

http://cb550.havocware.com/ – similar to this site, more about restoration!

http://forums.sohc4.net/ – basically the bible of CB bikes – tons of projects, tons of information!

  3. Hey Jack, just checkin in. I saw a nice cafe racer the other day and thought of you. Hope you’re well and still hope-full. Winter is coming and a bike is a nice indoor project!
