Not much to it man. Is your bike running that is where I would start. Then go from there. Are your tires good if not take the wheels off paint them and put new rubber on them. you get the picture. little projects till you have a bike that looks like that. Now if only i could take my own advice (3 non running bikes)

Well while you have your tires off go ahead and paint or powdercoat your wheels. Did you get white walls?

I've actually heard those 650's with four straight pipes and they sound very bobberish. But if you want to go with a 4-1 and want the sound to match the style then the fighter syle would be a better match. get some longer shocks some moto bars usd forks dual disk front brakes youre there.
