Love the parts sourcing....I thought about doing this very thing you have done to yours but had no
idea what to use....
Dig the Shadow swingarm.

This is exactly what these bikes needed....and what has put off me owning one.

Peace,
Jebby

Spacetiger, what part of VA are you from?
I too just purchased a CB700 nighthawk S (1985).
I'm in Silver Spring, MD.

Can you tell us about that oil cooler?  Is it OEM, or did you add it?  Where does it pull the oil from:  the head, or the oil pan, below?  It looks like it comes out of the head, with the 90-degree hoses out the bottom of the oil cooler, pointing at the head.

Overall, that bike is really pretty.  It is quite the ride, a genuine head-turner.  It is also quite intriguing to CB750 fans, like all of us, here.  Cheers!
