Two neat CD250 Cafe conversions

lost the link - but very impressed with the finish on this custom....

Japanese Bobbers - always style lucky

Always wanted a hardtail CB450 !

More European gems

Thanks to Pipeburn for spotting a Netherlands Co. called Aermacchi Racing, who sell stunning Aermacci kit replicas and parts. The frames are works of art (and I don't say that lightly - see comparison below):

Derbi Racer (not Japanese, Spanish..who cares?)

Thanks to the creative people at: http://lecontainer.blogspot.com/
Go have a look.

Honda 1954 R125 Racer

Don't know the heritage of this cool boy racer from the 50's - the frame and tank look vaguely Ducati scrambler. (It would be a great template for one of the Honda 50 Solo's below).

Japan only Honda 50 Solo

If ever there was a reason to get a grey import, this is it.. theselittle gems are deadringers for the old 50's Zundapps / bantams, and are very modifiable.

Teds Special Motorcycle Works - Honda 77's

Here's a wonderful brace of CL/CB 77's from custom Japanese tuner Teds. They aslo have interesting (and pricey)bikes for sale, mostly vinage Hondas, but a few exotics as well.

(this last one is a CB 72)

GRAVEL CREW - why didn't anyone tell me?

Thanks to the wonderful ACE CAFE RACERS blog for bringing this site to my attention - I can't believe I've not seen it before and really like their clean, lowrider bobber style (without trying to look too much like OC or Sucker Punch Sally chopper/bobbers, not that there's anything wrong with them...[apart from the engines...*yawn*];))

Suzuki TR500 Seeley frame replica

While looking for Kawa tr250's I found this brilliant Suzi replica - the pictures speak for themselves. By David Maskell of the UK, and the link, with loads of tech. is here:

More random TR250's

Who new Norway sold the Kawa TR250's ? This is apparently an ad from there.
A retro scrambler with mad road tyres..
Check the brown grips - very Ossa.

more Kawasaki TR250's

I really like some of the tr250 mods being done in Asia. Mostly Japan, but here's a nice bobber mod from Thailand...

(I'm really into black rims - but I can live whithout black EVERYTHING)

Krazy triples

I Saw this wonderfully spit n polished kwaka triple sidecar outfit parked outside the local HEADWORKS bike shop in Carnegie, Melbourne (popular with the classic racers I beleive).
Apologies for the quality - my digital was flat so I grabbed a disposable camera from the

nearest shop... I'm planning a review on this store shortly, so will ask more details on this beast.

Mucking around with lens blur....

Bighorn ! Kawasaki hits the trail.

The 175cc F7

The 250cc F4 Sidewinder (1970)- love the smaller tank styling on this road/trail model

superceeded by the 250cc F8 Bison (1972). Man, the blokes at Kawa sure must have watched a lot of BONANZA episodes with those names.....

The mighty 350 Bighorn F5.

And left side.

The kinda guys who ride these iron steeds.........
