Before and After cafe SV!
Hey Guys and Gals,
A newbie on this site, thought I'd drop a few pics on here. As you can see, it was a Red Naked, modded to Faired cafe racer. Hope you like it! http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...on/OldBIke.jpg part way http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...n/OldBike2.jpg Finished http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...CIMG4167-1.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...MG3995-1-1.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...n/CIMG4017.jpg |

What country are you from, 1st thought was usa, but the last pic looks very european? Infact, is the last one the Caledonian canal in Scotland? |
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
London based! Pics are from Hampshire, and Normandy.
Thanks, glad you like it. |
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
was i right a bout the scottish pic then? :D
|
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
No, the last one is Pegasus Bridge in Normandy! With the famous Cafe Gondree in the background. The 1st house to be liberated on D-Day.

Re: Before and After cafe SV!
That is pretty good :D , welcome to the site man .
I like what you did with the seat there , sweet idea |
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
Looks lovely, I have a love for all things classic, part of me thinks modern cafe racers are wrong but that looks good.
|
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
Cheers guys!

Re: Before and After cafe SV!
Ditto with the seat, can see some hard work has gone into it. Lovely pictures too :) Good Work!
|
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
Good work, thats a nice looking bike :thumright:
|
Re: Before and After cafe SV!

|
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
Nice Bike, why the US/EU side reflectors still though?

Re: Before and After cafe SV!

Re: Before and After cafe SV!
I don't normally like cafe racer style, but that is VERY well done!

Re: Before and After cafe SV!
I even managed to find an off the shelf Arai GP 5X in black, white and gold. Too perfect, I had to buy it!

Re: Before and After cafe SV!
I wouldn`t have cared if it was £500 , if it matched so well I would have trampled Grannies and Orphans to get it :D

Re: Before and After cafe SV!
Nice bike, what seat cowl have you fitted? Love the colours, quite JPSesque.
|
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
The seat cowl is imported specially from the US. Very rare in the UK. They don't make them here.

Re: Before and After cafe SV!
Uber cool. Love the colours and direction you have taken it. Do you have an open face helmet and goggles?
|

Re: Before and After cafe SV!

|
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
If they are Imperial Extra strong ones then I`ll have one Dissuade :D
|
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
:thumright:That my friend, is by far the most imaginative, and tasteful change to an SV I have seen in a long time. Very very individual, but oh so desireable=P~.
Top work, BTW what fairing is that... Duc 900 ss? or have you already said and I haven't noticed |
Re: Before and After cafe SV!
Oh dear , I can see a raft of Curvy owners looking at their Curvy`s and thinking about doing this , what have you sparked off here ? LOL :D

Re: Before and After cafe SV!
Yes, I was stupid, and got from Poly26, only then discovering twinshack! Poly26 was the inspiration for it, but I got the cowl from the US.
But I love the retro fullfairing as well. |
