The worst forum by far....
No, not this one!! I collected a cafe racer project yesterday - some pics to follow, so I registered on the UK cafe racer forum so that I can get some hints. The bike is more or less there but I need to get some advice on the seat unit.
So having duly registered, had a look around - no introductions to newbies who have posted, loads of posts with no hits or responses....

Re: The worst forum by far....
let us know how you get on.... been considering turning my old cbx750f into a cafe racer - already got a lot of bits to go on.... fibreglass seat, flyscreen, renthal clip ons etc...
will be a shame to butcher it as its totally standard & mint condition but atm its just sat there gathering spiders

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

This is it - started putting it together today. 2:1 exhaust but will replace with single pipes

Re: The worst forum by far....
Yeah agreed Benny, wire wheels would be the business. Gonna get her together first and then maybe go on the hunt for some later this year. Im gonna get mine as close to the pics as possible. Im making my own seat too using good old fibreglass matting and body filler. Cheers dude.

That's absolutely stunning! I want a project soon can't decide between a nice Harley Bobber, cafe racer or just a nice original CBX.
