Teds new project a CB500 K1 mostly version 0.5 circa 1972.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Tbh Simon I'm well in front of where I was when I stripped down the 400. It's been easier as the bike has been dismantled before. Even the centre stand pivot came out undamaged.
Progress will come to a crawl as the weather gets cooler in the garage. I plan to improve on surface preparation - something you can't rush before I start up the rattle cans.

Ted, I'm sure all this hard work will be worth it! ;) Great progress.

Picked the frame up from the powder coaters today - good thing is you can still see the stamped frame number.
Used a different powder coater this time RPT Engineering Ltd at Somercoates DE55 4LS Cost with VAT was £190 including stands, swing arm, battery box & rear frame grab rail part.
Not as thickly applied this time so well pleased with the 30% gloss black finish.

Looks good Ted. I like the low gloss look.
Might have been better in brown ;D
