$10.38 cent Cafe Racer Build (yea thats right $10.38 and yes its possible!)

It's not "a build", it's not a "cafe racer" (let's not open up that can of worms though), and don't claim it to be $10.38. Did you pick it up in a truck? Then you paid for gas. When you go to have it inspected and registered are they going to do it for free? Doubt it.

Yes it is.. yes it is... yes it did... No No and No.. NEXT QUESTION FROM SOMEONE THAT KNOWS WHAT THERE TALKING ABOUT PLEASE?
 
Don't tell people that they CAN have or "build" a bike as glorious as this for $10.38. I've received plenty bikes dropped off to me for no cost, but that doesn't mean anyone can do that or source a free bike. When those things happen its pure luck.

And that's pretty rad that you get all of your parts and supplies for free ya crazy cat... I had to pay for my spray paint, oil, wire terminals, carb cleaner, fuel line, lube...
 
Appears to have no turn signals, and no speedo. Pretty sure there isn't a state where that's going to pass inspection either...

Yes people can build an extremely affordable bike for little more than a cheap bottle of scotch would cost. Im here to inspire people so take your negative attitude and your happy ass somewhere else.... ANYBODY GOT A QUESTION FOR ME?

Got any more free motorcycles? I could use a winter project.

No I wish! I just sold my last bike I had for sale to another guy for $1500 bucks. I built this little beast for about $350 including the price of the bike! It is another bike that performed beautifully especially after the bigger single carb modification I did to it. The bike was a blast to ride too! Had to go off road through the woods for this picture below. This once again proves that you CAN build an extremely affordable bike for little to nothing. Can anybody guess what this bike is??

You kind of remind me of the people that tell others that if they believe they'll be rich, it'll be so... Easy as that!

Most people don't get free bikes dropped off at their door, that only require an oil change and few jimmy rigs to turn into a reliable motorcycle.

Also, that's not a cafe race. And by your definition of a cafe racer, you could call every bobber and chopper a cafe racer by your definition. I would say a proper definition for a cafe racer would be a bike that has the style of 60-70's race bike but is mechanically and/or cosmetically tamed down for the street.

Good for you tho on your economical builds, seriously props to you. Just don't go around telling people you "built" a cafe racer for 10 bucks...

I thought so it looks like a smaller Yamaha to me. It looks like it could be an old 360 but I dont see to many of those.

What tipped you off the side panel that says 360

This is hilarious.

You have showed up at a buillders' forum with a couple of hastily thrown together bikes and asked if anybody is looking for advice. You're making a fool of yourself.

Stick around and participate and you'll get a much warmer reception. Take some time to look around and I think you'll find that you are in a position to help and to learn something.

I see some of you guys STILL dont get it... I dont care about what your definition of a Cafe Racer is or what you think a build qualifies as. The point of this post is to show people that you CAN have an affordable bike that CAN be cool and a real means of transportation in a world where its getting harder and harder to make it day by day. I understand if you guys still just dont get it and are still stuck on meaningless things of little importance or significance to anybody but your self. Its amusing to me though it reminds me of little teenage girls trying to get attention.

LOL this thread is pretty fucking hilarious

If you want to post negative drama about people I think a lot of you guys are on the wrong forum. You should go to Teen Vogue or Sweet Sixteen forums. Or maybe Girls Life... or whatever there will be plenty of drama there for you.
 
TEN DOLLARS AND THIRTY EIGHT CENTS IS WHAT THE BIKE COST. IM NOT MAKING ANYTHING UP HERE. I DONT KNOW WHAT ELSE TO TELL YOU. IF YOU CANT EXCEPT THAT FOR SOME REASON THAN TAKE A HIKE ALREADY!
