Update: One Cool Commando!


From the photo comments section:
Hey guys, thanks for the photo salute. I spent over a year specifically designing and CAD rendering all the bodywork parts for this. All the parts were then produced in my shop and are currently for sale on my website.
I don’t want to drop names but my current bike project will be seen in the Cafe Racer Mag. next issue. David Ashenbrener

Just sitting here at work on a break and thought I would send you a picture of a recent project of mine.

My wife got it for me as a 40th birthday present last fall. I came as a roller with all the parts in boxes. It’s a 1981 KZ1000 Police Special that I’ve turned into a café/rat bike that is just a blast to ride. Great blog and thanks for looking.
