Cafe Racers!
Hi Gents:
After learning everything I did on my se7en, I began some bike projects.
The newest (Yamaha RD400 cafe racer/ chopper):
CB360 Cafe Racer ($2100 pictured):
CL350 Cafe Racer ($1200 pictured):
The CL350 now has an aluminum seat and stainless exhaust.

they all look really smart, 
i like the rd400 as i used to have one in my late teens, what fun that bike was  
had to change pistons about twice a year tho.
smart bikes, i,d give them a blast if given the chance.

That would be sacrilege to do that to an RD over here . Nice modern take on old style bikes though Chris, beats the Harley custom chops you see.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

No idea about bikes and the like, but they look v.cool to me - I like the retro outfit too.
Do you cafe race with other cafe racers?

Been thinking along those lines myself and got a CJ360
Meanwhile got a cg125 and L plates to get experience before putting in for the test..
meanwhile spotted this..
not at all bad for a CG125 I reckon
Honda of course did do the Dream 50 (4 stroke 50cc twin ) waaaay out of proportion pricing, but damned good looking and looks to be a hoot
Worth U tubing it, sounds great :-)
Regards
Rob
