I got a '81 "C" myself. Good to see another getting some love! I've had clubman on a CB350F, hard to tell from your pics and not knowing how you are built... but you may want to brings the grips back some. Making them more  horizontal should make them more comfortable. But only if it feels better to you!
Keep the updates comin!

[lostson]

 I had mine like that for awhile then moved them to a different position, my back couldn't take being hunched over. They way I set them up now is much nicer. Looks good though.

Here is a pic of a "C" done Cafe' style, thought I'd share... when I find a picture surfin the interwebz, I stash it in my "Motivation" folder for future reference... never know when you might need it.

That is a beautify looking bike.  Looks like the electronics are all hidden under the seat.  Must be a very small battery.

That said, I wonder how it runs with those pods on the carbs

[Hellbilly429]

Haha, Sees I was thinking the same thing

Still a valid comment. How would it work with pods on stock Keihins, regardless of ownership. Very nice bike indeed.

Where is the oil kept on that bike?  Is it not a dry sump?

[shinyribs]

Correct. DOHC's are not dry sumps like the SOHC's.

Hey thanks guys. And right now im just doing the simple things for a cafe. Bars and pods for now. This winter ill start fabricating my own seat pan and cafe style seat and getting the cutting done. I just wanted to be able to ride it beings I just got it running a few weeks back thanks to all the guys on the forum here tracked down my issues. And that bike is great MOTIVATION!!! I keep saying "One day I'll have what i want, One day" lol.  Again thanks guys for all the help and all the suggestions given.

[Gishman91]

Hossier,

Does one know how or where they relocated the battery? Its not a kickstart, and has no sign of a battery. This is what i want to eventually do. Any info would be awesome.
Thanks again for the Motivation

Judging by the way the cables run from the spark plugs its got to have all of the electronics in the tail piece and under the seat.  Must be a very small battery.
