I had a nice afternoon drive today with the valleys full of flowering almond trees

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer
Well after a small crash landing in June I’m back...
There was no bigger injury at the bike, just small scratches, bent clipons and broken mirror, I broke my shoulder and clavicle and lost mobility at my left hand, but not enough for stopping going down fixing my bikes..
Now I have made a color change at the Raptor just for fun

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer
I had this bike out for a ride today with her temperamental engine, it’s never sweet and the only way to drive it is attacking hard every corner pulling the trigger hard all the time, my bike is pumpingout +20hp more over the original unit and it’s like being in a continuous war!
I have to say its trilling but the price to pay if you relax a moment can be very painful
I will sell this bike as I’m not strong enough any longer to keep this nervous bike undercontrol!
But I still love the sound and how the front point at the sky in first 5 gears continually, what a marbles day and goodbye

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer
I never thought I'd hear such a reaction from someone so committed to modifying and 'upgrading' their bike! More is obviously less in this case: a lesson for the rest of us. Hopefully you can move this bike on to someone with an appetite for a fight, and can find something more to your tastes. In the meantime, it's been entertaining to hear your story!
Good luck,
Nick
PS It's not April 1st yet, is it?

I have been racing and making wild things bikes since I’m a small child always with fast road/track bikes, I feel it’s the moment for a change..
Therefore I bought
Ducati 900SS 1976 to restore
Triumph 750d Bonneville 1980, to make a classic cafe racer
I’m just finishing a Suzuki GSX750R 1986 I will sell this one.
