First look - My eyes! My eyes!
Second look - hmm....it's growing on me.

So :thumbup:

Wouldn't want to ride it - but I'd like to be limber enough to. :lol:

I could like that, if it had a less fussy paint job.

It's a lot of time, effort and money to spend on an old clunker CB750, he said grumpily...

It's only worth using an old air-cooled motor if it means they can hit a really low kerb weight, but there's no information on that most important of details.

Looks sharp, though...

Yes, as an inveterate fiddler and modifier I'm hardly the one to be pointing fingers... :)

Tastily done. Even the paintjob falls short of garish...just.

Good skills shown in the build.
