Cafe Style

Here's a picture of my bike done in classic cafe style. She rides pretty nice.....

For a bike without a fork brace

Looks tasty! Where did you get the wheels?

[Tracker]

The bike is a re-worked 1980 Midnight Special.....jetting changed, pod filters, K&N superbike bars, custom seat/tail piece. It took most of last winter to get her all together. I was worth it!

Your link isn't working. Something about using to much bandwith.

Those Dutch guys...

Jim,

You could always bolt on some performance enchancements too

I'm currently looking for a Supertrapp 4-1 to add to my bike. The stock system is in pretty good shape, but I like the sound of the 4-1 on a jap 4 cylinder machine.

thanks graham
thats what i want to do with the single seat.i have a full faring from the late 70s or early 80s.i have been in contact with mal pitman(builder of the chain drive racer) and he is going to send me some pics he says they are only bl/white but any thing is ok for ideas.
ps he is also building a copy of their production racer out of nos.helps if you own a yamaha shop and you ran yamaha gp race teams.red bull yamaha

That orange and white thing would be a buzz to ride but the rear cowling sucks.

Nutty XS11

Chevy,

I take no responsibility for the XS in the pics (rats...wish I had one) ..... just a bike I know of out in Holland.

Those Dutch guys in the XS club out there do some interesting mods. I particularly like the subtle updating of something like this.





They use the Yam XJ900 Diversion wheels for these - nice eh

Maybe one day!

Cafe Racer XS

Hey Jim.......

That Dutch guy with the turbo has been messing with it from almost new...... This is perhaps a more Trad caff racer approach



Looks like a Rickman body kit, maybe adapted from the Z900/Z1000 and CB750 kits that they used to sell in the 70's
