Cafe Racer Seen Tonight

<< < (3/6) > >>

Trigger:
Probably? Most Defiantly!

Bodd:
I quite like the look but I hate those headlamp peaks, what the hell are they for, to stop enemy planes seeing you at night ?

LYNX....That's my Bike mate, it was our first run out this year.

It is an amalgamation of some of my old bikes and bits.
Headlamp peak, bacon slicers and a lack of shiny paint, it's a taste thing, most of it's even functional.

The engine is basically now race spec (other than keeping the alternator / charging system) and she handles, stops and goes like #@%$.
Oh and the front brake is a GT750J 4TLS.

Hope to chat at Twyning

Lynx:
Hi MCR, Congratulation on it's first trip out. Successful? It was certainly getting a lot of attention. Nice prime spot too  ;). Did you see my 400? Almost opposite your's but between two cars  ::). Nice avatar too!

MCR:
Hi mate,
Yes a good first trip, just need to downsize the main jets to cope with Weseco's.
And yes I did see and drool over your 400-4, looks fresh out the crate, a credit to your many hours in the man cave.

As to the negative post about the 60,s look, "what's the point"?.....if that was a serious question, there is no real point other than a homage to the original cafe racers and a slap in the face to the American influence of pretty paint and bling. I didn't think this site was for the purists!

Hope to speak at Twyning, you know some of the BSB boys are attending.
