Hi guys, sorry I've been a bit busy and moneys tight this month so not much has been going on, i've ordered an aircraft style gas cap (waiting for delivery) to finish the tank, and fitted a stop tail light into the rear pod. I recon i'll be spending the next few weeks working on the engine, need to get it back in and figure out where everything is going back on.

Comments please, I may alter this ???

Beautiful , one thing I might suggest covering that back wheel, your back might get soaked in the rain, w/o a hugger over that back wheel, one of the street fighter guys just posted looking for a solution.

I have skipped over this post about 100 times as I'm not all that in to the whole cafe racer thing myself. But wow am I ever glad I checked this out! Absolutely amazing work! Even though its not my thing it actually looks great and the workmanship is just amazing! You have another person watching your build now. :D

Can we get an update please? This project was looking amazing.

I was thinking of attempting a similar project this winter with my 400. Glad to see I'm not the only one that thinks this is a great idea.
