Cafe Red.

The 1975 CB175ss belongs to a guy named Coal. The customizing was done partly buy the PO, I had my hand an a fair bit of it because it was an incomplete project when Coal bought it. Shortly after it was ridable, it lost compression, probably the rings gave out and shattered from improper storage recovery break in. I installed a Lifan 200cc single on it which required heavy engine mount modification, complete rewiring, and many other head aches. This gave new life to an otherwise doomed classic. I hate to see the engine swap but it was the best option for this mount.
