Lovely looking but shame it has to be so long still,think I’ll have to scratch the cafe racer itch at some point
never been a lover of cafe racers, if done right they are not too bad but most look a mess, they strip off the bodywork, change the headlight and seat and ask 5k more, never under stood it, the good news is it keeps the supply of parts going to the enthusiasts. Pete

Christ on a bike @nigelrb I can't believe you've liked that Repsol It's beyond awful and the owner wants flogging
Quite the opposite...I'm a Repsol lover and former owner...which is why that carbuncle needs pushing off a cliff lol
Give me a break, @Lozzy . A man's trying to broaden his horizons down here. Whilst I often engage in the 'Repsol bantering' I have a strong appreciation for the work that owner has put in to the bike, and for @derchef for bringing this masterpiece of engineering to our attention. It's owners like yourself who venture no further than a standard bike with false Sato street hooks and questionable hugger who have no appreciation of the development of our chosen pursuit/hobby. Let us all look outside the square and open our eyes to the future of motorcycling. Here's a glimpse:
I'm booking that to carry my urn down to the w mids to scatter my ashes at your tea stop....on a windy day
Nige, beauty is in the eye of the beholder my man, but your welcome to park it on my drive, looking for a new centre piece flowerpot.
