      That's what drew my attention to the bike as odd as that sounds. Going thru these steps in life have me evolving in the present tense as this is all the way out of my wheel house!
      The world has a funny way of giving clarity to things! And I couldn't be more excited to start his build!!!

    Three things I'm enjoying this morning. First, a tasty strudel made out by my daughter for xmas. Second, remembering the huges and kisses from my three grandsons. Third last but not least this inspirational video in how to aim a Cafe Racer project. And of course I totally agree with the 5 tips. Yesterday while I was returning from pick up my rain suit which I did install some zippers for easy wear I found this small motorcycle reapair shop. Inside my car I had the twisted foot brake pedal of my bike, which I had in order to purchase a brand new one, but for no reason I stopped to see if the young patron can do something about it. He did. With expertise after seeing the kind of material and if is possible work with it, bent to shape the twisted metal and then polished to made it look not just good but great. Later I found that as me, he is a person mad about Cafe Racers and is very competent to weld and shape metal. Repair the pedal cost me 20 pesos to purchase a brand new one 500 pesos. That can make a difference in most of the projects we aim. Which made me ad this 6th tip: found the right people for the right job. After finishing the lay out of your project, you better decide which part of it must be made for professional technicians. Found this help is critical before start any project. Merry Xmas and a very Cafe Racer new year!

      +Alejandro Monzon Thank you my friend for sharing your thoughts. Just as i said in the video, Don't worry about your limitations on the project, because time will help you getting solutions. And it seems you already found one. Let the Professionals do the professional work for you. :) Merry Christmas and a happy 2016. Saludos.

    Often, I go back and re-watch a video, be it for inspiration, or to see a specific application of design. One, I appreciate the professionalism displayed in your videos. Two, I am in awe of the projects that you find that enables others to see and feel what builders around the world are doing. Three, last, but not least, the inspiration gained from these projects allow us to explore new ideas and attempt designs that have not yet been seen or implemented. Thank you for all your time and effort put into these examples of the greatest Café Racers to be found. Your channel, Racer TV, is far better than anything else available within the Café scene. Again, thank you!

    • @RACER_TV

      Well, depends of the state of the motor, or the usual value in your Country. Check on Ebay or other websites, and verify the average value of the Cb 400.

  • @RideAMAP

    Great video. I struggle with what looks good and what's comfortable. I want to ride my bike all the time to work and even all day for those great weather weekends. Most bikes that look amazing are just art and not practical to actually ride for hours on end. I also love the function of a rack on the back. They look terrible but are so handy for bring lunch to work or groceries home from the store.
    I would love for you to find a bike that fits this category. A beautiful work of art that is comfortable and functional for taking lunch along. I don't know know if it exists, and I've looked a good deal.

    • @PierredeCur
      @PierredeCur 4 года назад

      Neither looks nor comfort are important for a real café-racer.
      Handling, stability, cornering ability, sticky tyres, strong braking, and performance (not brute force, but what you need to pull out first of the curves) are what matters first. Samewise seating position and commands are not for looks and comfort, but to get a good weight distribution and control over the bike in twisties.
      Then, when it's able to do what café-racers are for, beating the shit out of your buddies between cafés and on twisty roads, you can think about aesthetics and comfort if they don't break what matters... :-)

    I have to be absolutely honest with you, but with myself first and foremost. When I started following this channel, the thing that struck me most (like a sense of fascination), more than the bikes, was the voice (the melody I would say) of the conductor and for a Neapolitan man (Italy) melody is everything ... or almost!
    But now, it's time to immerse myself in this fantastic world of Cafe Racer and take my wife to "fly"

    Hello my friend, I'm watching this yet again as I find inspiration in pretty much every one of your video's (but you already know that). Once again you offer excellent advice, and not only knowledge, but extremely good taste. My current project is a renovation of a GXS750F 1992, I'm told the first generation of these are going to be a modern classic (?). Following this I'm going to try something new, a "Street Tracker ", (please don't think I'm a traitor to the cause) I've already got the bike FZR600R 1991 and I've grafted a single sided swing arm on to it, this was much harder to do than it sounds. I thought it looked so well on a BMW that you featured, but instead of just buying something with one already on it I had to do it the hard way (I think I'm wired a bit wrong). Anyway keep up the amazing work, and have a happy new year.

    • @RACER_TV
      @RACER_TV  6 лет назад

      Unfortunately, things are more complicated than most people may think. I use this "robotic" voice created by software, because I'm Portuguese, and my bad English accent (and voice), can ruin the documentary character that I like for my videos. I already tried a real American voice in one of my videos, but things didn't work as I expected. Curiously, the robotic voice sounds very good for all non-English natives. Cheers.

    I am building a cafe, It spends more time in bits as I am constantly changing it. A young workmate asked where it was after months of on the table. That is when I found out that my other 5 bikes didn't excite him: the cafe does. He is 35 years my junior. This hits the spot so well as Manufacturers make good bikes for everyday owners, but a Cafe is also moving art. I have big plans for mine, but it will take time to get there and this video, as well as my workmates comments really encourage me to speed the process up. Note that I also appreciate the voice; no shouting; great diction; and so easy to listen to.

    Thanks a lot for the tips. I think the point of trying to extract what makes other peoples' projects so great is essential to finding out what you need to do. I can't wait to do a cafe build from the ground up.

Небольшая проблема, рама алюминиевая и придется варить аргоном, а это сейчас не дешево))) Всем удачи с вашими проектами.

    I was having a problem with my business plan for 2016, and last night I decided to sleep on it, knowing that the solution will come. This morning, the solution came in the form of this RacerTV video.
    1. Choose the right project (the right business)
    2. Look at inspirational examples (case studies)
    3. Reverse engineer the process to find out how it works (analysis and synthesis)
    4. Judge your work as an impartial bystander (what would someone else/my client think if he saw it?)
    5. Evolution (Go over it again, go over it again, go over it again... (I think you get the point) What used to be beautiful yesterday, tomorrow will look dated)
    Plus Bonus #6 (+Alejandro Morzon)
    6. Find the right people for the right job (you cannot do everything yourself and some things you must outsource to the professionals)
    Thank you... for making RacerTV.
    P.S. Are you sure you're only talking about bikes here? Because to me, it sounds like a philosophy of success

    • @RACER_TV
      @RACER_TV  8 лет назад

      +Ed said It seems you followed my advice in the video about "the secret of creativity". Lol.
      And you have just proved it worked.
      Thank you for all your kind words. Cheers.
      PS: You are so close to the truth. There are many important things about success, that many people aren't aware of. I love Cafe Racers bikes, and i also love knowing some secrets of the Universe.This way, why not combine these things in some of my videos? :)Congratulations, You are very insightful. Cheers.
