Reader Ride! Putting the"Cafe" Sport in Sportster!

Joseph Chaney sends in his beauty of a ride! Now that’s my kind of Harley. I’ve always thought that Sportsters were underrepresented in the Cafe world. Looks like hell of a fun ride! A lot of nice personal touches on this one. That seat ans swingarm are sweet! Ans I really like the rising sun decals on the engine. Must keep those purists scratching their heads!

He Writes:

“I really enjoy your blog, and thought I’d submit some pictures of my bike for your consideration. It is a 2003 Sportster XL1200C that I bought brand new and have done all of the work myself. I even laced the wheels and mounted the tires. It is a blast to ride!

Here are a few specs on it:
-engine- stock 1200cc
-exhaust- Vance & Hines SS2R
-wheels- stock HD hubs, Excel rims (19×2.15 front and 18×4.25 rear), Buchanan stainless spokes, Avon tyres
-gas tank- stock 3.3 gallon with Honda F2 fuel filler
-drive- Renthal sprockets with RK 520 chian
-rearsets- Crossroads performance
-tail section- custom built by owner
-clipons- Rockwall
-swingarm- stock with bracing
Thanks! Joe

Thanks Much for the pics!

Honda 550 Four Bobber.

I’m not sure exactly what it is I like about this bike. It’s a really interesting excercise of bobber design that finds it’s own unique balance. It aaaalmost goes too far but then stops just in time.



UPDATE: The Millyard V12 Kawasaki. With Video!

UPDATE: By Request I tracked down a few build pics of hte bike below. It’n not in english but you’ll get the idea. LINK

When 6 just isn’t enough. The Millyard V12. I Know it’s an old story but its still wicked cool. A really good article about the bike HERE


3 for 1! CBX Streetfighters!

Takes a lot of creativity, time and money (not to mention balls) to build and ride these beasts!

Cafe Guzzi. Before and After.

Found this bike over on Adventure Rider. Awsome before and after pics. That’s one hell of a transformation! I never get tired of looking at a Cafe Guzzi. “This bike started out as a 1979 Moto Guzzi V1000 G5”


"Cafe Rouge" Norton.

We here at “Motorcycle Picture of the Day” do not endorse doing this to a Norton… at all. But you have to be awestruck at the amount time effort and detail that went in to this… this… well decide for yourself I suppose. different strokes and all that.
