It took me 2 years, but finally my '78 CX500Z restoration project has finished! In my opinion the bike looks great. From some angles and distance it looks like new
With all the money the parts cost me, I could easily have bought 2 or 3 bikes from eBay or so. But I don't regret at all what I did. I've learned a lot about this bike and about restoring in general.
The bike isn't ready for 100% yet, it still needs some work at some details, but I consider that to be part of the regular maintenance.
I'd like to say thanks to you guys, for helping me out when I posted questions in the old forum.
Check out the latest pictures I took HERE or HERE.
