That's the great thing about building your own bike, you can make it exactly as you want, it really annoys me when purists pick fault for a lack of originality (thankfully there's none of that on this forum), I look forward to seeing it!

Thanks Mark. Whatever happens the bike will be special to me at least. I've met a lad who rides a similar bike and loves it. The CB500 is a beautiful motor and in a bike with total weight of <150kg and with the 605cc kit should be brilliant.

Did you get around to finishing this project?

It would be great to see the end result.

I stopped when I'd got past £20k spend. The bike was running and went amazingly well but I didn't like it. The flat bars didn't work and the front mudguard from a CB500 wasn't right. I had a new Kawasaki Avenger A7 project to do and put the Dresda into the garage for the future. I'll probably sell it for whatever it'll fetch. Would make a good buy for somebody, nearly everything is new.
