Me too. Imagine that..

I remember the seller ran it several times. Seems like he got around 6 or 7k for it.

I dislike Hondas too and it looks good.
Someone had an idea before they started cutting.

He cut his the same place everyone I know cuts their Honda.

CB's make the best looking Cafes in my opnion.

Ok so now I am really confused
So far we have a cafe has to be
(1) light(er)
(2) fast(er)
(3) better handling
Than stock, cool no problem with that.
Now there is also a rule that you have to make the bits for it yourself? Who said and why?
What is the difference between an after market seat and an after market fork brace, or clip ons, rearsets and what about a swingarm?
A lot of people w@nk on about store bought bolt ons, but if it makes the bike light(er), fast(er) and better handling what is the problem? why is that not cafe?
TCK I don't mean to single you out, it is just you are one of the more vocal members here when it comes to this sort of thing.
At the end of the day for better of worse these bikes are *someones* idea of a cafe, and seeing as there is not some rule book out there, opinions will differ....

MY point was the bike in question has NONE of those things. Its just a hacked off frame, and a bought plastic tail and some clubman bars... There is NOTHING done to the bike to actually IMPROVE anything. Its, as i stated in my first post, an cosmetic imposter. That was my point.

There was no need to guess....just read my sig...

Well...true...
It's always better to debate about tricky things with someone you have a common interest with...
Keeps things somewhat civil....(usually)

Better than debating motorcycles with politicians.

They lie too much to have a good motorcycle conversation.

Then they pass another law against motorcyclists.

No offense but I think you're bitter cause your project didnt turn out as well as you had hoped.
Like I said, NO offense so dont get all wadded up.

It takes thought, imagination and time to make a project look even just decent.
I know you dont like my bike and I dont care but there is no need to be so hateful towards anything thats not stock.

[will61310]

No offense taken. My project turned out exactly as I expected it to given the budget I allowed for it. It did what it was supposed to do. It also was a bike that I wouldnt keep around as my ONLY bike as it simply was not good for anything except flicking around in corners. Now, I have other bikes that are nearly as capable, and a HELL of alot more comfortable doing it. So, the cafe's parts became useable for other projects. The motor for another 750 im working on, the fork brace went elsewhere..etc etc. You see, I enjoy working on/building/restoring/rehabbing bikes ALMOST as much as riding them. So, Ive ALWAYS got a project or two going. And, in the end, I rarely keep them. So, you can assume what you wish about what *I* do, or how my project turned out in my mind, whatever, but you'll likely be wrong, and just continue to prove to me what I already suspected. And, Im still not sure where you get im hatefull toward anything thats not stock. Its pretty evident that quite a few of my bikes ARENT that. But, i suppose thats where assumption gets you.
