A while back I decided to attempt something really stupid and do an EFI conversion on a 1962 CB77 Superhawk. I failed miserably. After a couple years of trying to get the antiquated ECU and poor quality components to work, I finally gave up, and the bike sat in the corner of a shop with barely...

I've been getting a lot of requests on specifically how I made the 7 emitter LED high/low headlight for a number of other applications. First off, I want to say that nobody gets it all right the first time on something ilk this. Because of this I want to make sure that people understand that...

So I've held off long enough. I need to share my project! In my introduction thread I chronicled my early build states. Powder coated frame, new paint, rebuilt motor and some electronics-- the usual for a nice resto-mod. I had always planned on doing something a bit more "Cafe", maybe something...

Hello everyone, I can't believe I've only just stumbled upon this forum! It looks like a pretty substantial place to stay current with the cafe racer world. I'll admit I am a bit new to it. You see, I've grown up in something of an "Animal Farm" world of motoring: 4-wheels good, 2-wheels bad...
