Kinda just looks like a street legal flat tracker. Wouldn't really call it cafe. A longer, more cafe tank would look oh so much better. Anyway, nice bike. Very very cool!!

Though I wouldn't call it a "cafe racer". Looks more like a streetfighter/standard. That peanut gas tank is awful and the swingarm is too long. Need fenders on it though you already know that. The headlight is out of proportion, needs to be a little smaller. In my mind, you could go two ways with it...go olde English standard, fit a rounder tank, some fenders, different handlbars, speedo in the headlight shell, sort of like a BSA A7 meets BMW R60/2. Or you could go real cafe racer with it and put a quarter fairing on it like the old Ducati 750SS. Definitely some nice craftsmanship and a great idea. The price and maintenance-intensive engine kind of relegate it to an occasional toy though. A very nice toy to be sure!!! Good luck!!! Very nice. Though I wouldn’t call it a “cafe racer”.
