My new '81 CB750f Super Sport

I got this '81 SS from a friend who was going to chop it into a cafe bike. The guy he got it from had done a frame up resto and had it painted similar to the ultra rare '79 Phil Read Edition. I plan on running it as is. Let me know what you think!

Awesome looking bike!  Really like the paint job, but the chain guard looks a little weird to me??

I'm not really a fan of cowlings or windshields, but I must admit, that this is a sweet looking bike.

Nice bike I'd ride it just like it is. It would be a shame to cut that bike up

I'm of the opinion that one should only molest bikes that have been mistreated. This one looks too nice to mess with! I voteā€¦keep it as is, it's NICE!
