1976 CB750 truly well built. Cafe with custom bodywork, leather seat, performance suspension, trick brakes, and a bad ass 900cc race-built motor. My reserve is $5k, which is less than what I spent just building the motor. This is one of my bikes: http://r.ebay.com/kQoPFW Peace and grease, -Fang

Hi All. I have been working on my RD again. I don't post too often, but I thought I would share some pictures of the process. My bike is a 1974 RD350, and over the last few years I have been working on making it look more like an old 1960's Yamaha YCS-1, or something like that.... Basically...

I got the RD for $500 (it was 95% complete with a clear title), but I bought more than another crappy old motorcycle. I bought a good story. It apparently got impounded by the San Antonio Police department a LONG time ago, where it sat forgotten for the past 30 years in the back of a police...

Hi all. I am looking for other Cafe Racers/ Ton-Upsters here in the Austin, TX area who'd like to get together and play motorcycle. How about a roll call? Peace and grease, Steve

Here's a first post, y'all. My name is Steve and I have been building cafe bikes a lot longer than I have been using computers. I am in Austin, and I like to build smaller Jap bikes. First things first, I sign in as Fang, as in, "The Fang," the Nervous Norvus song. Don't know what I am...
