That three wheeler is like your bike Rich Ard, lousy seating...LOL

This right here is why I didn't put a passenger seat on. The peanut gallery already follows me around. ;)

HA!

I resemble that remark.....You do know we all love you, right?
 
Wow. I think there's some good components on this bike, but it just needs to be stripped down a little. Those side covers look like barn doors to me, and the bitch seat is at such an awkward angle that just forces your passenger into crunch land. When I think what I've spent on my CB360 project so far, this doesn't seem like a bad price for a running 900.

I think this is cool, just not sure if having the words "Cafe Racer" on the tank kicks it off the cool pedestal.

$6000 anyone? http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/mcy/3840959459.html

Um... that bike is running at about 1.1 quarts low on oil if he's accurate on capacity. Poor engine...

$5 worth of stickerts or Krylon and you've got that taken care of...that thing is cool! Wonder if that's the Benelli that someone on one of the other boards I frequent had been restoring.

As to the "bobberratcafe,"

I got it a couple months ago because of the bobber cafe type look, which are very popular now.

Did he really just say that? And he wants someone "serious" to come and look at that thing? Good luck...
 
i think that is pretty bad ass, that is a rear rim laced to the front hub... kind of an old school throw back to the old school drag chops
