O.K. gang....look no further. Carter (Caveman) is the best!!! Just got my 10" & 12" DTT patch, along with a banner of "Built not Bought" in silver/gray thread. Had it done up a little different (pics later). Nice and "tight", font is clean, looks awesome!!!! Great price.....I added to the...

That kid needs a good ol fashioned beat down!!!! Cafe is a "style", of machine, and from everything I have read on the original guys from the late 50's, it was a "Brotherhood" of guys who loved bikes & loved speed, who had no access to racetracks, and sponsors, or the money or contacts to become...

I am late on this subject but could not resist....I owned both the 883 and the 1200 sportster. I have also owned Japanese nakeds/sportbikes/cruisers. the Harleys were a "phase" I was going thru......the Harley V-Twins are torquey, as inlines are more "top end". I believe as one guy said, the 250...

Curious...it is as hard for you (out there), as it is for me to explain the concept, let alone the style of bike we all know and love.....the "cafe racer"??? I was testing my latest creation on a quick road test...and stopped at a local supermarket. I "had the patch"....and all I got was...

Thanks Brother....good to know the guy is "luggage"!!

I just "halved" my original 79 CB650 seat foam when I built my cafe seat....so far so good. My son had a suggestion today. We were cleaning out the garage, and had a few dense waterproof foam snow "boogie boards". They are about 1.5"+ thick, a closed cell foam, with a smooth bottom layer. They...

I own a few helmets but like to see what is new out there.....check out the "CiKiQui" from Vemar. New for 2009. It looks like a "bug", but I saw a promotional video on a bike site, and it has an innovative removeable chinguard, and an inner slide down smoked half shade. The visor is oversized...

In Pennsylvania......but unlike you living in the beautiful Pocono area.....I live in the middle of nowhere!!! Check your Pa. map......Smethport (Mckean County). Check Google maps (satellite view)........forest as far as the eye can see!!!!!!

Ran across a site with some nice DOT scooter style helmets. The black leather helmet looks pretty cool. Check it out.. www.retro-scoot.com

Surfin around and came across www.glorysales.com . Check out the helmets, the Ruby with the leather interior is beautiful...but the 700+ dollars is too steep for this kid!! Does anyone have experience with the "bubble" shield on the Fulmers off this site? Cool old skool look.....

Can anyone tell me where to get the 59 Club decals (like our banner bike) in a 4" for my side panels. I have tried to get in touch with Swapmeet Louie to make me a few, but no luck.....thanks gang!!

Try going to www.CB750cafe.com You can get some nice ideas from checking out Carpys builds. I have mailed him few times with questions, about his parts fitting my 79 CB650,and he got back to me pretty quick. As far as your exhaust problems.....I have played with many a bike. (mostly mine)...if...

If you want the Dickies mechanics jackets...(A.K.A. as the Eisenhower), got www.workingperson.com I have a few from them...both lined and unlined, never paid over 30 bucks......they claim to be the largest site on the web for that stuff, and a 110% lowest price guarantee. The patches look...

Gang.....just got my mail last nite from Carter.....he made me a DTT patch in a 12" and a 10" along with a banner of "Built Not Bought". Had it done in silver/gray thread with East Coast in the center, and the old skoool 59 Club styled numbers......5 on the left...9 on the right...

PLEEEEEZZZZZ........I think I'll hang my beer cooler off that rack!!!! Or a sign for advertising/directions for my next kegger!!!!
