Steve’s Honda CB550
Steve Dawkins spent five years building the 1976 Honda “Hondawkins” CB550, and he did everything himself, apart from the engine work; when your good friend is a professional engine builder, you call him for help. Dawkins struggled most with the dual-disc conversion for the front brakes, though in the end he managed to pull it off, and you can clearly see the years of work Dawkins put into his café racer by examining its many meticulously finished details, from the sculpted knee dents in the fuel tank to the high-spec paintwork that makes the CB glow under sunlight.
