Default Harley Cafe Racer!

Saw this today and had to share. Don't know if this will put me in the crazy pile, but I LOVE this. Not your typical custom, and better for it, I think.

What do you all think?

There's a big thread on Sporty Cafe Racers in the Sportster section.

Don't forget to mention the XLCR when posting about café racers.

I think triumph does the cafe style better than anyone. My favorite looking non Harleys is the triumph bonnieville and thruxton.

That bike rocks! Gotta love a kick-*** cafe bike, regardless of make.

Here's my old '77 Honda 750F. Never got to take it all the way, full blown cafe, but it was a fun bike. Jones'n for a Sporty to cafe as a project bike now.

Awesome. Love the cafe racer style. I've never been one for traditional choppers, but the cafe style has always felt somewhat similar in purpose and more my taste in style.

Some cool cafe stuff from BMW, too:

I always thought that was a sweet scooter.
