My gosh, this thread is soooo awesome! I can't believe I waited 42 pages before I read it! Freaking incredible bikes! So much fun and beauty!
Do you think mine could be considered a cafe racer? I can go from cafe to cafe...

I was an early member of the old XL List when we tried, as a group effort, to fund a team going after the land speed record for whatever class that thing fit into. The record was held by a Guzzi at the time, we all thought was rather unacceptable. To make a long story short, the XR1000 just could not breathe well enough to get the job done. It was abandoned in favor of a simple Evo Sportster, which handily secured the record for the Americans.

I can't believe I found a picture so easily - here is what everyone really wanted back in the Ironhead days. Robison Industries "Thunderheads" would really wake up the old Sportsters:

Not cafe, but my new racer. Parts ordered and prep is coming soon to make it race legal. Gotta buy another $70 Harbor Freight drill press for my bolt/nut drilling. I keep buying these things and throwing them away thinking I won't need them again

Not needing certain tools again, I know the feeling  Drill guide looks cool though https://youtu.be/5rHvhHYVjKQ To figure follow up earlier post in this thread above, you should post a pick of that big heavy brute of yours you’ve got tucked away I almost offered to buy it on the spot when I saw it So cool

I'm glad you got into that room Peter! It's cool to see all that stuff lined up in rows.
