this was my first bike. it used to be my dads, he rode it bone stock for four years in the mid 80's to the early 90's then parked it. he gave it to me when i turned 17 and we rebuilt the motor togeather and then i rode it for about 2 years (still stock), as i was building a chop. then i parked it and rode my chop for about 2 more years.

well, in the last 3 years i have built and rode about 5 cb750 choppers and havent rode this old xs except for everynow and then around the block. and then i decided, i either need to sell it or chop it. and i couldnt bring myself to sell my first bike so that brinks us to where i am now hahaha here are some pics from a few weeks ago...sence then i have made more progress (mounted the tank, added neck guessets, and a guesset were the backbone meets the hardtail, and somother odds and ends)


here are some pictures
