Yeah you can get done quicker without going out for coffee but sometimes it's just as fun talking about what your going to do over coffee...

But seriously, for a "never done it before" guy like me those conversations with you guys are a great help and inspiration. |

Seat sorted. Built up the front and flattened the back. Stretched and twisted and begged the stock cover to go back on. Not perfect but certainly good enough for "Frugal Build V1"  Now back to wet sanding and finishing the tank. |

It's looking great Tim! I can't wait to see this beast in person. Holler if you need help, I'm usually available to offer some adult supervision. :-)

@wt100, where did you end up having the seat done? i'm liking that style, saw it on a CL350 Scrambler and was thinking it would look good for the CB.

@wt100, I was able to do that with my 650, the 350 has a busted up seat pan so I'm not going to be able to use it.

Seriously. I'm having WAY too much fun. ;D  I imagine the painstaking detail of this thread is boring you REAL BUILDERS to tears but I'm having a blast! |

Yup was talking to Phil about that. We need some "communal tools".
