I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea, but for the my first platform it is coming along well. It started as a bobber and I was just unhappy with the route chosen for the bike. So, I slowly made the transition to a more... cafe style, as many have done. I recently purchased a donor xj750 which will be supplying a dual front disc conversion and rebuilt forks. A Ducati replica quarter fairing, from Glass from the Past, will also be incorporated as well as a home grown chin scoop.
