Wow on the Vespa hill climb. I can't even get my Vespa to ride straight on asphalt!

Thanks guys. DakotaYota: Tank is an aluminum GP replica tank for a 350.

Just wow. Awesome transformation.

Wow, missed this too, the first time. Great looking bke. Love the shape of that tail section. Perfect match for the tank.

Did you really run that last one - the 750F - with that exhaust daily? How loud was that? Must have scared all the neighbors!

Hope to see how this project develops, Viet. Loved your CL, so this will be a good one, too, for sure.

That Vespa Bobber is insane.

Re: Saigon "Ca Phe" Racer. After a few probs with the clutch, finally got her out and running around 80 kms. (2 trips of 40). All seems ok until about 4000 rpms when it feels like it hits a flat spot before recovering again. Some pics on the road. And an attempt at vintage type...

That CB is awesome. Well done! What size tires are you running - are they the same front and back? Love the look of that.

Love the pared down look! I have an FTR myself, and you have just inspired me to...well...mess around with it.

Re: Saigon "Ca Phe" Racer. Thanks for all the kind words, guys. And, yes, white orbs, "ca phe" - just as the locals say it! Anyway, just wondering if any of you can give me some tips. I'm currently running 120/80/18 tires front and back (just like the beefy look), but since I cannot seem to...

Re: Saigon "Ca Phe" Racer. Thanks, man. One of the benefits of being in a developing country is the fact that they keep building new roads - you just have to know where the new roads are, and you can have them all to yourself (at least until everyone discovers it). Will certainly find a new...

Finally, after a couple of years sitting on the carcass of a '74 CB360, my local mechanic finally found time to put this old girl back into the street. Considering the language barrier, I think he did an outstanding job. It was born here, in a humble shop in the outskirts of the city. My...

Correct on the pipes, Viet - they are from a CL. But the rest of the bike is a CB.

Can't wait to see the after after after of that!
