Café Racer

bien entendu c'est un copier coller d'un forum US

Here's what it looked like when I bought it.

And this is what I have now. The tank is WBO-racing from germany. The swingarm is from a Suzuki GS550, I tried fitting an alloy one from a Kawasaki Zephyr but just couldn't get it to fit, might change it in the future.To save some weight and give the rear a cleaner look I decided to fabricate the monoshock design.



A rear view. Getting 3 exact bends in a pipe 60cm's long wasn't easy but I really like the slim "waist" look and the way they disappear underneath the tank.

Next up on my shopping list.

I got a friend of a friend to do all the welding in exhange for a bottle of vodka. I'd say he's worth every drop.

As I'm still in school and working part time, this might take a while to finish. I'm hoping to get it mostly done by March when I get the motor back from the tuner. After that I still have about 6-8 weeks before the season starts to finish it. At least I'm off to a good start and my shop is only across the street. I'll post more details later...
Got the new rear shock a fews weeks ago:

I took a risk buying a random shock off ebay but I got it cheap and it fit (just barely). Also, with all the preload, compression and rebound adjustments, I'm pretty sure I can get it set up right.

Christmas came early this year:

Tail section from Germany.

And the USD-forks from Sweden
