Man the bikes are really nice, but that is an awesome media cabinet... can you get an entire frame in there?

Yes the honda cb72,s are a great bike , I was mostley interested in classic racing when i started working on them. But i am a real fan of the road bikes now. I think this site helps alot with information. Give,s you confidence to take on restoring a bike. Its good to know help is out there for problems and parts.
The CABINET,Yes i can get a whole frame in the cabinet i can even get in there. was originaly made for class ingraving its about four and half foot wide by two and a half deep and four high. runs of a road compressor, just got it for the bikes.

This is only the second time I've heard reference to the violin case seat. I bought an NOS blue seat for my 64 cb72 and when I got it, there it was in the wrapping, with the 670 part code, wide and longer than a regular seat. When I got it I believe it was Bill Silver that said it was the "violin case" accessory seat. This is the only other one I've seen!
