Hi all,


Today I picked up my first motorcycle to restore/rebuild as a cafe racer. Don't have much plans for it yet but I first would like to check everything and see what I've got to start with.


Some pics:

This weekend I will post more pics and ideas :) .
 
So just a small word.


I already got some clipons and Tarozzi controls with the bike. Furthermore I'm going to buy a tank, seat and battery box from Benjie.


Going to start with stripping the bike this weekend. Going to take a look at the engine to see how it looks, compression test etc. Also plan to go over the frame to see what the previous owner did to it (he also wanted to make a cafe racer of it).


Anyone got tips which manuals I should buy?
