I think that is a good deal for the XS. That fairing looks too tall and I agree, put a larger diameter wheel on the back.
"Cafe Racer" such a loose term! Craigslist "Gem" of the week!

If I had the cash, I'd add this sweet FZR400 to the garage.

When you need parts, it must be confusing....Their are so many different models and brands on that.....Looks like a lot of thought and work went into it, but the idea of fixing it, or explaining to the State Police why the Vin and engine don't match seems to be a little nerve wracking.
A really sweet looking bike, but still a bit of a Frankenstein. When you create your own Frankenstein, you know what yuo have....someone else's seems a little daunting to me, anyway.

The FZR600 engine at the time was a bored and stroked 400. I personally still want a pure 400. When Yamaha started importing them, I was 19 years old and in college. Someone local is selling a track version with no lights and all for $2000.

Hey man, totally worth it... said no one ever.
You know, it might be worthwhile just to do that every now again, throw up the flag & see if someone with alot of money and little brains bites...if that's the case. I don't know think I have a problem with it.

That has to be a damn joke ad... just unreal.
The post I made a bit up: The bike was defintly someones projects, they saw what they wanted to do and did it. Trouble is, I can't tell what they were trying to do. Like above said, there's quite a mix mach of parts, but at the time, it worked for that build. We all poke and jest about what people build and make on CL, but it's still just some other guy behind the keyboard doing the best he can do to make "something."
But hell yeah there is some screwed up shit people throw together and try to make the big bucks on. Nooo way

I think we would all like to be able to build a bike, sell it and make a few bucks on it but not to get rich and not to rip some naïve person off with an over priced machine. I don't subscribe to the buyer beware philosophy.

One of a kind? I donno they sell them at most scooter shops, heck there's one for sale on my way to work in red. Looks like its had more work done too, with a lot better price.

Also one with black with blue flames, can't find the listing for it right now. Was $700. Both in the same small town.

From the ad: I built this as a project bike. It's been fun to ride but it was always meant as a project I would eventually sell, not keep. Bottom line, if you're looking for an awesome cafe with some incredibly modern parts that add to the safety and performance of a bike while still having classic designs, then this is the bike for you. It's throaty, it hauls, and most importantly - it stops! This bike will easily "do the ton".
