CB500 - 1995

Post by alytt » 28 Feb 2017, 20:47

Evening All,

I would post this in the project section but it seems fairly dormant over there...

I've just bought a CB500 with the hope of turning it into something resembling a café racer. Just a bit of a project until we get to the summer.

Has anyone had a go at a café racer on here who can point me in the direction of parts suppliers and any other general tips?

Cheers,

ALytt.

Chop the frame if you can, always easier to start with a steel cradle type frame.
Parts wise- ewt that fits and looks good. If you buy a seat unit and want it upholstered give us a shout- can get it done V cheap. https://www.instagram.com/p/BNmo0wTDviy ... hNFsv05s0/
