rays650cafe
No quarter given, none taken.
I been looking at some of the threads and am wondering. Are any "rules"posted that define a particular type of bike? I remember getting back into bikes a few years ago,when I had to quit driving circle track cars cause it got too expensive.I was in the store and saw the motorcycle classics magazine with Carpy's cafe on the cover.(yep,jumped on the bandwagon because of the way the bike looked,learned the history later.Guilty as charged.)Got my 1st CB650 soon after.Huge POS.Rode it around for a few yrs wanted to make a cafe out of it,lucky to keep it running long enough to get my endorsement. Found the same year,almost the same model for WAYYY less than the original one. Anyway,I wanted a cafe bike,ended up building a Bratsyle? I think that the 80's bike are too curvy to cafe, not that there's any thing wrong with curvy.Likes the curvy.It's a good thing.I think there ought to be a loose set of rules,or suggestions on what makes a good cafe/bratstyle/bobber.BTW,what is the difference between a bratsyle and a bobber?Newer guy wants to know.Maybe help the new guys/girls not end up w/cubmans on a curvy girl.
