Hey, I really like your build! I actually picked up two GR's at a great price recently and plan on one being a cafe. I personally would like to make the stock fuel tank work but I I like what you did with your frame. I had hoped to avoid cutting the frame like that and maybe getting the cafe stance/look a different way but I may not be able to.

Kurtis Roseman Ok, there aren't that many GR caferacers. So I had a vision in my head what I wanted, had to make a lot of compromises. Really loved a moonshape tank, found one model in the US but to expensive. So looked for secondhand and found a Honda CB?? tank. The frame I cut because I wanted a straight line from front till back. There were some problems with things but in the end it turned out pretty good and I am happy with the result. Was the first time I've done this, stil would like to change some parts but have to run into it. Like the KM en the RPM cauges or is it gauges? But it runs great have to change some things in the carburators to get the engine run properly. It is a fun bike, 2cil, aircooled, not that much power but it puts a smile on your face when you ride it..If you have questions or problems with your build maybe I can help you along the way.Good luck Gr Paul

one thing Ive noticed with all the cafe builds is every one hiding all the electricals up under tank, or in this case up above rear wheel, seems like the idea here is performance , but why raise center of gravity and leave big gap between engine and rear wheel or is it just part of the desiired "look"?
@misterpaultje8 жыл бұрын
That's right, it is just a "look" thing. And with the removal from other parts at the back you already lost a lot of weight. In my case I placed a smaller battery , otherwise it wouldn't fit. But the idea is to get a clean look through underneath the seat and with a monoshock there is nothing there anymore, to see less visial electronic parts. When you are lucky to have a bike with a kickstarter this is mutch easier to fix, but in the end it's just how you want to fix your bike. I think there will also be people that want to show the electronic parts also. Perfomance isn't a issue becaus it runs 160 km/h (my aprilia does that in second gear) but it puts a smile on your face from ear to ear and you think you go about 300km/h.

Leuk project! Welke tank heb je gebruikt? Heb je de tunnel moeten aanpassen of paste hij er zo op?
@misterpaultje7 жыл бұрын
Dank je wel. Tank is van een Honda CB...? Paste niet helemaal goed en aan de voorzijde raakt deze het frame licht. Aan de achterzijde iets gemaakt zodat ik met een moer vast kan zetten. Maar was enorm blij met resultaat omdat dit eerste project wat ik gedaan had. waren hoop dingen die beter konden maar heb het budget minimaal gehouden. Belangrijkste is dat supertof rijdt dat ding.

Monkeyboy CF92 it is red, over the red sprayed a coat of clear with red metalflakes (roth). Then sanded it to put the stripe on it. The flakes you sand will become silver, then 2 coats of clear on it.

I not 100% sure but it is from a Honda, I believe a CB450 1973.
