Quite amazing! Yet considering the work that was done I think it's a shame that the rake angle of that chopper geometry frame wasn't reduced. The handling might have been improved a lot.
Seen many similar builds Honda yamaha suzuki. Cut the bottom out of a fuel tank and drop it further down. Bit of extra work but would look so much more cafe racer style.
I got a short video on my channel on how to swap out that hydraulic clutch to a cable clutch you might wanna check out. I've had one of these bikes for 7-8 years now. I also have a 6 piston front brake from a ninja on mine as well. I like my Barnett clutch personally. HD clutch springs I recommend too.. These are peppy little bikes. I had to spend a couple grand on a sportster engine to out run a stock 800 suzuki. I'm gonna watch part 2. If you mono shock this thing, I'm in lol Curious how you're gonna run the carbs. They can be a nightmare
got to say I dig the build, not a huge fan of the battery under the tank but I like seeing these old bikes getting a second life.

Thanks man! not sure what I'm doing about the carbs quite yet, but I'll re-jet them and go from there I suppose. Thank you for the suggestions!
Way to go Simeon!! Awesome!!!:-)
Thank you!! 😁
Change the fork
Best to start with changing the fork then you'll kno how to attach the subframe properly
Not the best frame for a cafe racer🤨🤔
