shugsi:
ive actally downloaded your info and pics..hope you dont mind....im thinkin bout puttin cbr600 front end on and 17" wheels and brakes, removing grab rail, cut down "eddie lawson" seat, black/polished engine, deep pearlecent blue paintjob with honda "wings" logo on tank,late model cv carbs (apparently they make a real difference) cbx 550 footrest hangers, custom type clocks etc etc....was even thinkin bout shovin in a dohc 750 engine as not many tuning stuff out there for the cb650z... also thought bout modifying a cbr600 (1991-95 model) swingarm to fit the 650 frame....so many ideas but limited funds  :(

Welcome Shugsi.

Did you see the article on CB650Z in this month's Classic & Motorcycle Monthly.

They believe that it was the best SOHC Honda as far as cycle parts go, but just a little too late too market to make any impact against the DOHC competition from Suzuki and Kawa.

Not at all, make use of it. Any more pics you're looking for, let me know.

Have a look at http://www.hondacb650.com/ also, there's a load of knowledge there. Look out for Pinhead - he's investigated improving the cylinder heads quite extensively.

regards, Phil
