CB650Z 1979/80 Blue

Postby DV-CB » Mon Sep 06, 2021 4:17 pm

Hi, thanks for letting me in to the forum. Enclosed photos of recently bought cb650z 1979 /80. Live in Norway. Prevoiously restored and owner various bikes, CB500Four. T140 Bonneville 750. Do also have a newer R1200GS. Plans for the CB650 not fully decided. Will be kept more or less as original. Have just overhauled the carbs. Still some tuning left.
But would like to do some mods like replacing the large rectangular indicator lights with smaller round ones (maybe the ones from CB550 fits?). During the winter it will be recoated black with gold stripes.
Then get the same seat and rear lights from the very first 79 us model. Getting rid of the large existing rearlight. Etc.
