750 F2 Cafe racer project 2011
UK Pete:
Hi Tim, your old F2 is part of my inspiration for the cafe project, plus there are a few i have seen on the US forum that are nice as well
Let me know if you find the petrol cap, and yes i will take the F2 to one of the future vjmc meetings

Hi Pete,
Never really been into Cafe racers until I saw a CX500 !!! Yes CX500 - not a misprint !! Cafe on 'Cafe Racer' series on Sky. The tank is Silver in old Honda 60's style and boy does it look good- absolutely gorgeous and a really humble guy as well.

Also gleaned from that programme, that you make a seat rear hump mould from the rear of the fuel tank profile.
Problem is with Cafes are they are gobbling up old CB350's and the price is going up, plus people are also racing them as well.
Also saw a mad French guy hacking away at a perfectly good Kawa 900 ( chopped it up with a hacksaw to get the motor out for his Martin frame. To my eyes there was nowt (as we say up here) wrong with the Standard bike.
Go for it Pete - Nice shots of your SOHC's by the way in recent posts.
Cheers
Ashimoto

Hi All, I did put up a link under "Misc" to Paul Grant's site http://www.customcafes.com/ I had the chance to visit Paul and Barry last week and see CC002 in the steel, it's a beauty and I cannot believe the amount of work that's gone into that machine, even the tank badges are made in house! :o
Spitfire:
Just one question, what did you blast the brake parts with, I did all mine by hand and it was a pain !
Cheers
