Re: Commando Cafe Racer Rebuild 5th August 2009
Gee you guys don't make it easy do you? I've got one chance to move this bike on before I'm well and truly lost. It'll have new Battlax's on it in week, it's getting very close to a going proposition. I've spent a fair bit of time riding around this state with my mate Ben who owns one of those dual-purpose BMWs (what Charlie and Obe-wan ride) and was really impressed with it's abilities, so thought one of the K series road bikes would be a goer. Now my line of thinking could veer into realms that may not be terribly viable in terms of domestic harmony - if you get my drift.
If I really had the $ and there was one available, my true object of desire is the Guzzi 1100 Sport from the mid-90s. Maybe they've still got some soul - and an acceptable seating position!
