This post is at cornandp's request. Let it be known, I'm horrible about documenting builds. This has really been a fun one though, and she's nearing completion!!!

Also, Molly is a weekly rider, I've never torn her apart so much that I couldn't mount up and rip around on a Saturday.

I'll post some better pics when I do something else or clean her up, these are what I could find fast, she's got bugs ALL over her now, heh.

Enjoy.

Shot in motion, buddy snaps phone pics while riding, he's nuts.



Shot from a couple months ago of my 350 and Molly.



Molly from the rear, last night.



And the rear set cut into the side cover, still need to sand the edges a bit, but I like how it looks.



Not nearly as much fabrication as corn has done though!!!

 

I like it, the rearsets look great. So anything more to come?

 

I like the riding position, it's way tucked, those foot controls are care of a 954RR too, nothing like bolting honda stuff to a honda!

A buddy that just starting messing around tooling leather is making me a seat, something kinda thin and trick. I'm giving his artistic mind free reign.

I have to weld another nut onto the frame to install the era appropriate steering damper I have.

After a couple other minor things, it'll be polish and paint time. I have a lot of frame scraping to do, a little bondo, and a lot of BLACK to put on. I'm thinking of painting the jugs black and polishing the edges of the fins. I'm photoshopping a pinup girl sitting on 'Honda Super Sport' with one of the old school feathered Honda wings behind her now, for the tank where the emblem used to be.

At the beginning, I wanted a checkerboard pattern somewhere. Still considering that, maybe a gloss black/matteblack up the center of the tank, subtle.

I like how the longer 750F tank lines flow with my bike, or I'd be making something like yours with knee dents and all.

I have a new headlight, but for some reason the super old yellowish one seems more appropriate on my bike! oh, and that's not my red rocket jacket, last minute borrowed it from a buddy. Normally I ride in my all black leather armor jacket.

 

It looks as though you did something similar to what I am thinking about doing for the license plate. There seems to be no great place for those. Every location sucks *** as far as being subtle and most of the time ruins the look on this stripped down older bikes. I like your idea about putting a pinup on your tank that would look sweet with a matte type finish. Like what a bomber pilot's bike might look like.

 

Exactly on the pin up girl.

For now, the plate is just tied on, there's an extra threaded bolt hole on my swingarm on the left side. I believe it was for the chain guard. I'll end up moving the plate over there when I think up a decent way to make a bracket.

I'd be fabricating a tail section too, except the kid that sold me the bike had already bought the Carpy one, so on it went. Real glass tallight, classy!

 

This is the latest rendition of Molly, not happy yet. I'll mess with the wings more and change her size and maybe the script. Dunno yet.

A guy on my SOHC forum started the ball rolling, he went nuts putting rivets on his tank (in photoshop only) and lines and his girl. Looked killer. He was a might better at PS than I as well.

 

Make the honda wing part of the girl, like a honda angel .

 

I love learning that its not just the bike we ride that we have in common. I'm not sure why, but I swear some of you are kindred spirits. pinup girls, wwII styling, cafe racers, you guys are in my head!
