And Jeffie- OMG! GOREOUS ring!!!

Sigh, she's never asked for anything other then to have a nice ring, so I had to do something worth while =`(

ohwell, Im gift free til the end of my time so fuck yeah!

So much money for so little =( weird how I can easily drop 10K into a car for mods that will lose their value over night, yet a diamond that should hold its value... so damn hard to spend the money.
 
You could do a cb 750-4 with a 600rr motor on it ;) but seriously, I'd go bigger, I can't imagine riding a 175 or 350 would be any more fun than riding my Buell. If I want it to get it to move, I have to scream with it. "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!!!!!!!!!"
 
350 would be fine to tool around on and make into a cafe. I have the 1krr to scream around on. And I need a starter bike for mrs. phyre.. :ph34r:


After looking around and doing some research, this seems to be the honda to have... The 1966 CB 450K Black Bomber.

Came from the factory with the polished aluminum tank, tank pads, etc.. Just like the picture. Its 99% done.. Sexy machine, vertical twin cylinders.. I love the look of it. Just needs a cafe seat and some clipons and it would look incredible. But these are expensive as hell, even in shit shape.

whats the point of "building" a cafe racer out of a bike that is already practically done???

at that point why not just get a new Triumph Thruxton

or a Ducati Sport 1000 Biposto

at least with those you get an already finished cafe style bike, that has a warranty and modern equipment
 
The Paul Smart Ducati 1000 is pretty sweet, for a 45 degree twin cylinder motor. Inline is where its at though. I know, putt around town, Mrs. Phyre riding, yada yada. I get teacher her, but I still can't imagine having a cbr sitting in my garage, and taking the blast out.

edit: on second thought, that motor looks more than 45.
