Yeah, I love those guys, Jim. They have some really bad-ass Ducati cafe's as well.

I wish they supplied tanks and seats for the older Sporties like mine. That would certainly seal the deal on which way I would go when I start putting it back together.

Hey Jeff...saw this tank at Benjies Cafe Racers. Specifically made for sportsters. On a '76 Ironhead. No frame mods required Seat was shortened from the one they sell

A bit pricey at $650 but he does make quality pats.

Yes, please...

Thanks, Jim. That looks pretty darn cool. I just spent some time perusing their website - I may have to give this some thought. That's kind of the look I'm after, or close to it.

I think what would be really cool would be a bare aluminum tank. Dreaming, I know...

This has been going on in my head. A 75o two stroke triple from the early 70's in a modern chassis.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1359921758.jpg

Jim, I'm a two-smoker guy and that bike would be the miggidy.

Boy that does look sweet and bet the acceleration would be interesting...

That was the short coming on the triple back in the day...all go, no stop, no turn.

Have three 1972 Kawasaki H2 750s here and just getting started on the project.

Who wants an 850cc, 5-cylinder H2?
