Here's a pic of the tank I stretched. Still need to do bodywork and prime it before I paint it. The back part is carbon fiber which is covering the welded on part, which will make it easier to do the body work. Eventually I'll cut the seat down once I am set on the tank position.
Was just out earlier today reassembling the clutch. No use in taking pics of that. Diry motor is dirty.
Fuckin sweet, now if only Kawasaki would reissue the widow maker 2 stroke triple!! I dig older bikes also although the only street bike I have left is a 2 stroke Harley from amf era.

There's a guy I know that races AHRMA who has a Kawi triple. He fuckin hauls the mail on it too.
I recently rebuilt an RD350 bored out to 400 for a race bike. I love me some 2-stroke smoke.
Ive got an old '74 cb750 chopper (goosenecked Santee / Machine shop frame) I need to sell. I love old honda SOHC 4 bangers. Especially the choppers & cafe bikes.

Something really cool about old cb's. I dig the earlier ones before they stopped using spoked rims in late 70's. I had a BSA lightning which was also cool but the cb's are built to last!
Bros, Japanese bikes aren't technically cafe racers, they just look like them.

Btw, just started reassembling the case and transmission on the '70 Bonneville. It's a slow process, but it's coming along. Sent the cylinders out to be honed the other day too. New pistons and rings are in the mail.
I get alotta flack for my love of Japanese choppers. Iced loved them since I was little, seeing them on the movie Any which way but loose. Even more as I got older, BC no one else has em. Its always Harleys. Something sexy about an old cb750 sitting. On a raked out low riding rigid frame, and an old Springer or girder front end, and 4 pipes instead of 2. Lol. LOVE EM

I'm a cafe racer fan, so I'm not really into choppers, but I LOVE '60s-'70s Japanese bikes, especially the smaller cc stuff.
I see what you did there!
