I've slavaged the old gallery, only one draw back, there is no bridge between the forum and the gallery, which means you'll have to register again to use the gallery.
I suggest you use the same username and password you used to register for the forum.
Where is it, well it's here -> http://gallery.sohc.co.uk/ - Enjoy, but remember I'm not photo bucket, we do have a limited amount of space so don't abuse it.

I managed to get into gallery withiut reregister again...the link just took me right there. Shugsi

Hi Guys,
You're right, I should get the gallery back online, it's tucked away an the moment.. I'm very busy with other projects at the moment so the forum has had to take a back seat, I don't even get chance to check the site out much, and it's only thanks to Steve that is gets moderated at all (thanks Steve).
I'll did out the files and take a look at what need to be done.
John
Heh John...we will all be patient and wait for you mate....takes a lot of time to keep a site upto date...site seems to be growing..maybe you need to advertise for extra help... shugsi

ive actally downloaded your info and pics..hope you dont mind....
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
ok cheers.....what swingarm you puttin on your 650?...also dont know what shocks to go for..Ohilns or Hagon Nitro's?...also seen on web a company called Viperperformance.com who also do "piggy back" shocks for older bikes..think they are american but they prob export.... Shugsi

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.
Yeah picked up a copy, also got an old copy of classic mechanics from 1998, they covered it in the "Classic ride" section...not gonna be puttin it back to concours as want to moderize it a bit...but keep the classic styling...i got so many ideas that me brain is over loading ha ha..will let you know wot route i will go when i start on it..

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
