Damn nice Sporty based cafe by Deus Ex Machina http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1359482387.jpg |

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. Benjie's Cafe Racers http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1359668683.jpg http://www.benjiescaferacer.com/combo-fiberglass-sportster.php |

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.

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

This is similar to what I would like to be riding eventually. Of course, I need to make sure I'm competent to keep it from getting scraped up first!

We have an event every 3rd Wednesday in Seattle called Backfire Moto. It's a collection of vintage bikes, cafe racers, mopeds, scooters, you name it. Some great bikes, people watching and beer. A few select photos. If you look up Backfire Moto on FB you can see a ton more.....

^^^ Nice group of bikes!
Can't say I'm a fan, but here's a NEW cafe racer just announced: BMW R nineT – 90 Years in the Making |
Took "Best Japanese" award at this years' Steel City Mods vs Rockers a couple months ago. Second time in 4 years for the '76 and was totally unexpected. I was pleasantly surprised when I got back to the bike and saw this.

Nice. I am warming up to the idea of a thruxton. Put on some sticky buns and take it to the track.
