After watching the episodes of Naked Speed, I started wondering how much a CB750 cafe racer is selling for now days?
I tend to stick to twins, but I heard a comment that a CB750 cafe racer is $20,000+. Now there is a big difference between a properly executed moto and something that was dragged behind a truck to the scrap heap but had a foam fantastic 'king and queen" seat cut down into a cafe racer bump.
Now everyone has an opinion on which aesthetic they like better, steel vs fiberglass, wire wheels vs mags, but overall, everyone of these shops produce high quality motos that have looks and performance, as well as quality.

The reason why I ask, is because things are not cheap like they one were. Donor bikes are priced in $1000's, parts are expensive, even the cost of utilities are going up. UPS and Fedex are still hitting us with a "fuel surcharge" even though oil is down 50%. I bought a billet of aluminum the other day and I had to check that the guy didn't charge me for platinum.
So how much would a bike like this DCC CB750 go for?
