Tony, Running standard carbs? Standard engine bore? Compression good? Ignition and valve timing ok? Is it running rich or lean at the mo? Dave PS: £10k for the parts your asking for, and I'll throw the rest in...bargain

scratching: = getting your knee down with a bit of gravel danger thrown in, mostly on country roads.

Well well, the old Cafe got best 70's bike at three three counties show today. Makes it all woth while. Although the dry roads and a bit of scratching was the best bit

Cheers bud, liking your Ali parts, do you ship to UK ?

Your kind words, especially, in this company make the effort very worth while, thanks chaps. Weathers sh*t here at the mo, can't wait until Sunday's local bike show....dry roads hopefully.

Cheers Bud .... first pic of first run out ..... woohoo

I hope your other half isn't reading this

I hope your up and running as soon as...... I just finished a 1947 RE 350G, great laugh to ride. Also started a Laverda 750SF? Now there's a cross over Brit / foreign bike.

What do the Tree Huggers say "it's organic baby" or something like that. Either way, most of the work is home brewed therefore inexpensive, its the likes of that fairing and engine component costs that add the time. Inspiration can be even harder to come by though.

All hail the true original Café Racer......nice, very nice

OK, a while has passed since last post but a lot has changed with the bike that may be of interest? as follows: Suspension: 1. was using CB900F DOHC rear shocks, a bit lumpy so changed to some cheep French gas shocks. Smoother but a little too high and limited dampening adjustment...I liked the...

Wise words mate.....took a ride to the Ace last summer and had a good time amongst like minded types. You been out and about on your Café this year yet?

Cheers Bud

Vinny, Wow, looking very professional, especially as a first build. A reminder to us all to take our time to get the end result correct and true to the vision. Will she be ready this season?

Very nice, love the suspension set up....how's the longer swing arm feel?

Well it's been four years now, trying out several looks on the same theme....Brit Café heritage formed around my favourite bike CB750 SOHC. The pic/s below show what I think will be the last incarnation on the theme. Test rode her last night to a local bike meet (30/40 mile jaunt) and all feels...

Hello like minded Brits, I have quite a few parts, some special, some refurbished, for the Honda CB750 SOHC (all ages, I think) just drop me a line if you are in need and I will see if I've got it. Pic attached (hopefully)of latest incarnation just finished.

Less of the old man, young wipper snapper. :-\ Just received my 'anti gravity' battery, 8amp hour and half the size of an FS1E battery.

A couple more pics of the latest evolution/s..............first pic was taken last weekend at Prescott Hill Climb, one of the oldest hill sprint tracks in the UK.

Shamus, You will have to pardon my adversion to some paint jobs that would do well on a chopper or sum such, rather than a Cafe Street Racer (raw metal every time for me). All power to those who spend the time, money or effort in producing some of the stunning paint jobs I've seen recently...
