Tim, I have seen your work in your cafe thread and you are talented. Building a tank and seat is not something I feel I can tackle. Do you suggest painting the frame too? I think that should be powdercoated which I would do black, same as the wheel rims. I am debating on what condition of bike to start with, a $500 bike or a $1500. I think most things (shocks, spokes, paint, lights, electrics) will be restored or replaced so maybe a beater bike is my best bet. I would like to do minimal work to the engine so that would have to be in good shape.

By the way, if you have or know of a cb550 for sale, please let me know. I am in VT. Thanks
