My husband has finally gotten his cafe racer project bike together. He worked really hard on the details and I'm very excited on how it turned out. Next on the list is a Triton for me. :p

Thank you! He has wanted to do this for years and he's pretty excited with the final result.

Funny that the bike is 38 years old and has less miles than our current (or previous) streetbikes.

:dunno: i don't get it...

looks cool I guess, but why bother messing with an old, underpowered bike to make it way less comfortable so you can ride it fast-ish?

Same can more than likely be said about any of your hobbies or passions

Bike looks awesome!

:wtf: whats the point of that? i dont get it.

why take a lame ass car and cut it up so it can still go slow?

well, I didn't, never had a "lame ass car" just a bunch of lame ass car parts that were otherwise useless on their own.

Quite awesome. For anyone that hasn't thrashed a 350/360 through the twisties, it can be a blast. It's a good peg scraper, and light enough it can be sideways into corners if you have to. Quick transitions.
