Hello all, I've been posting over in the UK section about a project I've been slowly working on for the last couple of years, the idea was to build a sort of 60's single cylinder race bike replica using parts from the Honda RFVC singles.

Hello all, have just bought this bike and not sure wether to start this thread here or in the café racer section? Its a 1957 Gold Star and I bought it from a guy who purchased it in 1961, fitted all the Taylor Dow bits and then a little later the triumph engine, since then its been raced on and...
