    I moved here from Oregon where I had several sport bikes. I bought a new cbr1000rr and sold it a year or two later cause it's was terrible riding here. Problem is I was coming from the PNW where it's like heaven for riders... But I need to get back into riding...

    Buy one or have one built?

    I guess it is possible to get a used bike like I was looking for but I wanted new lol... Also even though the cafe would be an older bike with many used parts it still would feel like a new bike to me...

    Buy one or have one built?

    I am not sure how the process goes as far as building a bike for someone. If I had to guess I would just give some examples of bikes I like color schemes riding type and what not. From there thwy would come up with a plan and pitch it to me. As for parts and configurations that would be beyond...

    Buy one or have one built?

    I'm only really looking for the look the sound and dependability. I couldn't careless about make model ect but it does need to pull me around the highway at a good clip and make it on a nice trip trough the mountains and valleys carving it up...

    Buy one or have one built?

    I look at it this way...I won't be putting my own pool in or doing my own root canal cause I know nothing about either...that goes for building a bike lol... As for price it wasn't directed at anyone just what I was looking at. I see tons of bills garage special for $2350 but not looking for...

    Buy one or have one built?

    There are a couple builders in my area and I would bet a couple more if I looked hard enough. That being said though how do you choose one if you want them to build you a bike vs buying one of their presence done bikes?

    Buy one or have one built?

    Wish I could but I don't have the time or the resources or the knowledge. As for buying a bike I wanted something specific and I won't settle just to have a bike.

    Buy one or have one built?

    Beauty... For this style, cafe, I won't be discriminating against any make or model just because not many guys riding them around... I will say though price is right there. I was willing to commit to $15k but the bikes my goal was set at all started at $17 plus tax and what not...my bad for...

    Buy one or have one built?

    My goal was to buy a ducati Aprilia BMW or mv agusta. After doing my research I can't quite commit to $19+k for a bike. Over the years i have had Honda kawasaki and the like but every Tom dick and Harry has one and I want to be different. I don't build I only ride and do a little maintenance...

    Buy one or have one built?

    Would it be more cost effective to buy a bike already done or to have one built? I always see ads saying they put $× amount of money and time into the bike but they only want $x in return or can only get #x. Now let's say you have one built there is no way you will get so much extra money and...
