Newest part for the Cafe Racer

Before and after. Starter cover.

there is a corresponding "extension" of the wooden piece that glues onto the timing chest's flat spot. In other words, it has a piece of wood on the timing chest where the flat spot is.

And of course, no, I don't think it benefits from the screen/ventilation. And to give credit, I got the idea from Jon Lars' work on his Cafe. Thanks.

Nice.

How are you going to rig the surfboard rack on this "woody" you're building?
I wouldn't over do it or you may have to start looking for a " Country Squire" name plate.

SWEET NESS & LIGHT !

Chuey, you do know that you are headed down a long path

I have not seen so much organic material on an MC since this one:

And I like it !
But then, when someone says: "stripper" – I will be thinking of a finely crafted canoe ...

Schweeeyt!

Chuey, it has to benefit cooling. How much is unknown, but it doesn't matter does it.

I just had a thought about a new motor sport. Motorcycle jousting! :roll:

(why anyone would need a honkin' big 1000cc bike for an arena sport, I don't know)

Oh yeah - very cool part, Chuey! I can see where it would aid in "cooling" considerably!

Surely you jest Rob?
I think a Boss Hoss (500 hp version) would be the tool of choice. :P
