I'm killing myself wanting to build a sportster cafe bike. I'm creating a file of pics that I like the rear cowling on this bike, forks on that one etc. Anyone make a build or have a favorite pic please post. I'll start

That is one of the best looking harley' s I have seen. I love café racers.
It brings back the nostalgic differences in classical bikes when people would have a few coffees and race for fun to the next café..

I think Café Racing was the birth of the TT races (isle of man, Assen, Spar etc)

I love this Norton.
