I'm not really an OEM kinda guy but wow! Just wow!! This is stunning  8)

The attention to detail you've given this build is amazing, really making me think about all the bolts and aged fixtures or fittings that I've just sympathetically restored and left due to additional cost....

Really looking forward to seeing the finished product, keep up the good work.

Thanks for the feedback and compliment. Always helps spur these projects along.

Made some more progress early today before work.

Front caliper fitted and system fully bled. Interestingly the UK low bars need a shorter upper brake line that isn't listed for the UK spec 750. I've found a UK spec CB400f line works well (slightly on the tightish side but acceptable in my opinion).

I had to shorten a pair of Honda throttle cables to accomodate the low bars as well.

This weekends job will be to fit the exhausts, airbox and seat, fit and time the electronic ignition, then all being well I should be ready to fire her up for the first time next week

Looking sweet as usual James.

It's looking fantastic. Post a video of it running if you can James, I'd like to hear it as well as see it. Great build.
