Franzgarage CB750 Scrambler

A few weeks back we shared Franzgarage's Buell build, which was chock-full of performance upgrades and perhaps a little off-piste for The Bike Shed but there are more strings to the bow of proprietor Franz Pagnin, Nick & Teo, from Treviso. This CB750F was picked up for a client who wanted a cafe racer based on the ever-popular Honda in-line 4. The donor was a little dirty but otherwise mechanically sound, so she was brought back to the workshop for a tear-down. During the build Nick was messing around with some dirtbike wheels, and this sent Franz off in a...

Seaweed & Gravel's CB750

Brady Young has moved. He used to work under the UGLY Motorbikes brand, where he ironically built some great-looking machines including one of our favourites, a flat blue & white XS750. But now Brady has moved over to Seaweed & Gravel, where we assume it's all about beaches, sunshine and the smell of the sea. Well not only that, it's also clearly about building more breathtaking bikes like this stunning CB750. In fact, stunning doesn't really do it justice, this bike is damn near perfect in our eyes. The project started more than a year ago when Brady stopped by...

Jamie McNeill's CB750F1

Jamie McNeill is a 37 year old Scotsman who has always loved anything that runs on fuel, combined with a love of using his hands and being creative. It's the perfect recipe for producing bikes like this Shed-built Honda CB750 F1 - which, coincidentally is also a 37 year old. Jamie's history with bikes began with watching Barry Sheen race when he was just ten years old, and as a young rider he liked to push the limits, losing the tip of his left index finger on the sprocket of his GSXR. Oops. These days Jamie works as a business...

Bob Ranew's CB750 Redeemed

Bob Ranew cane to our attention last year when he built a rather lovely Kz650, so we were really happy to hear from him again and to get the chance to share his latest shed build, this 1980 Honda CB750C - which Bob calls the "ugly stepsister" of the more popular F model. And he's right, the donor is no beauty queen. For those of a more nervous disposition, shield your eyes now! This is only Bob's second built, put together with limited tools, limited cash and limited skill, but it's just as well done as his previous bike and...
