Little Horse Cycles 1972 CB500 Cafe Racer

Andrew Cornelissen is a motorcyclist and fabricator in Portland, Oregon. His Honda CB500 custom always cruised smoothly into events looking debonaire and classy. I had to get some photos to share. That turned into me asking him all the work he’d done and well, it’s quite the list. Andrew is the founder and owner of Little Horse Cycles, does fantastic fabrication, welding, and top notch motorcycle build projects.

The lovely Jada makes an appearance on ML every now and again- this time she’s transporting her 1972 Honda CL175 to her new apartment.

Second pic she’s actually babysitting it in the back of a Mercedes Freightliner. We all know how she feels, I am sure.
