I changed the bars on my cafe racer build in progress and the large monster of a stock gauge cluster will not fit... so i built my own turned out pretty well. I will try and get pictures of the actual bike up sometime soon.

I was bit by the Cafe Racer bug and was looking at a Triumph Thruxton.

Fun bike. Almost bought one, but a KTM was calling come hither to me as well.

1979 750

I am going to keep alot of it stock so i can easily return it back to original form if i decide to sell it but it is definitly taking on the cafe tone. and Cameron I saw a cafed out sporter the other day. Looked damn good the guy did a good job. and it sounded like a bike should [tooth]
