Hey Guys Any books of Cafe Racers are always cool, There is only so much I can do and so many cool people out there with really Classic looking rides, get the book done, not sure if I am worthy enough to be in the book but I will still buy a few copies. Cafe Racers are my life. I love all that...

Not me my friend, I have had my CHROME Dunstall since New in 1973. The 350's are smaller triple tree's anyway. Carpy

Hey gang I had some original Dunstall clip ons I had as a kid in the UK. I have just copied them in steel and powder coated them. Standard clip ons look cool but cause huge issues with throttle cables and the uncomfortable riding position on long journeys. Clip ons were really made for Circuit...

Hey Gang Well I think a book will be Bloody brilliant mate, I love all Motorcycles but obvioulsy Cafe Racers are my life, and, any book I love. Seate is a wanker, but his magazine is good. I think a book will be really cool to have in my collection and many more that come out, we need more...

Sorry guys but Seate is a WANKER. Well to me he is and to many I know. Obvioulsy it is up to you to make your own minds up and thats fair enough. Looks like we shall have a nice punch up when we meet, although he had a Black eye at the New York show, I need to buy someone a drink. I gave NO...

Hey there I did build something many Moons ago in the UK that actually used a Agusta fairing, but that was 30 odd years ago now. But I still have my British Road Racer. It has a Jerry Branch gas flowed head and lights the tires in 4 gears, fun to ride and well Balanced too. Good old bike...

Whats up gang Well it is incorrect!!! I am NOT a contributer to cafe Racer mag, he ripped me off and I gave no permission, he is a weasel and many have emailed me to tell me the same. Thats why i am starting my own magazine, I had called it cafe racer magazine 5 years ago and he Frigging nicked...

It works the same as a stock brake my friend, just longer rod on the linkage. It has 2 bottles of Nitrous too.

You are indeed correct, mike is one of my best mates, as well as tre cool too, I hear from them often and they love Motorcycles, all are really good riders. Carpy

The bike is great but alot of work and them super chargers are expensive now, I got mine for 5 bones a few years ago but a buddy of mine spent $2500 to get his one, but they look great, I tell curious people when they ask what it is off, I reply that 'its off an old Washing machine" carpy

Hey Thanks for the cool words Its funny, I only had ONE bike with Cafe on it and people thing i have put it on all the bikes. Infact, the only reason I did that in 2000, was everyone in America kepy asking what sort of bi8ke it was, that was the only reason I had it on there. Anyway, that bike...

Machined forks but you MUST be acreful as they are not very thick, had to magnaflux to make sure porisity was ok, a couple cracked so I wanted to be safe this time. There is more work in the bike than you see in one go, loads of knick knacks, remember, i raked the frame an extra 3 degree's at...

Hey there Of course I remember you mate, been a while i know, but I have been throwing my self into desgining new products and of course, creating cafe Racers, such as the Koppa Kafe which I did so much. The motor is a Ko and is blue printed. The Supercharger runs by belts and pullies from...

Hey gang Thanks for the words and you are right, the seat did not suit it as the bike was so small, the Girl wanted a seat that she could ride 2 up yet keep the Cafe style. but I changed the bike with the seat and podwercoated the rims etc and a few more touches to the motor. She had to sell it...

Hey There Well I have an 04 thruxton that is infact my own one, i have changed a little bit on it, like bars, fenders and signals, chain guard etc and added my own headlight set up. Put on predator exhausts, thing runs great, still alot to do, hope to make a glass tank and seat for it soon.

Gustaffon is the man for fairing screens, i have used him for many years and a cool guy too. carpy

19's do look good on the bike and will help handling a little bit, you do alter the trail of the bike a little bit, but not enough to notice to be honest. make the bike higher at the front by an inch and as many of you have said, you can lower the fork tubes through the trees to compensate for...

If you go to Motion Pro, they will make your cables up to the size you want. just tell them the length, they are not cheap but they work very well. carpy

hey there I hope you get the shock thing worked out? I use 13.5 eye to eye and sometimes 14.5 if I need the rear end lifted higher. Ikon makes cool shocks, progressive are good for the money too. try www.oldbikebarn.com as bear is a cool guy and sells shocks at wickedly cheap prices. Carpy
