German Karp,Argentina.
PS:the Sportster 48 its a REPLICA of Rough Crafts bike,the IRON GUERRILLA,built by Winston Yeh.its not stolen ,the builder in taiwan let me built the clone here in Argentina.
Interesting collection. I like the Kawasaki twin and the Bonneville a lot.
Sorry, I don’t have anything at the moment that can top THIS. A big tip of the hat to the obligatory BikeEXIF
Reader Bruce Reed sends in this cool 1980 kz440. “We built from frame to paint here in our little garage”.
Great Stuff!
Jason Moore sends in his sweet little CL125 “hybrid”
This is my CL125s “lil Frank” I picked it up to restore and ride around town but it ended up needing a full motor rebuild, new exhaust, and the forks were bent. Its basically a combination of the CL125 and a CB100 that was full of bullet holes and laying on its side in a field for 20+ years. This was my first 125s but now I have 5. Some for parts and some to put back on the road. Ill send you some nice ones of my CB125 cafe as soon as I get some good pictures of it. I love riding these little bikes because it brings back so many good memories for people. i always get stopped wherever i go by somebody who has a story about when they had a little honda just like it. Anyway here are some shoots i took recently.
Thanks to Mark H.
I’m not personally an “apple” guy (more work related than anything) but I certainly have appreciation for his life. He was always about good taste in design an this shot of him in his younger days on his BMW certainly shows that. Not sure about the riding gear but I love the bike.
I’ve always thought the big thumper enduro bikes had a lot of potential as cafe builds. I’m seeing more of them lately.
This one is from Mark Asproyerakas: I replied to another post of a KLR café photo. Thought you would like to see mine. If you want to post go ahead. I can give details of all the bikes features.

Great Stuff! Must be great in the “urban jungle”.
Regular contributor Chuck Lathe from North Carolina was kind enough to grab some shots of this modded Goldwing. I’ve always liked these builds. A lot of folks don’t know that the original Goldwings were intended as performance bikes and they only became tourers when folks started setting them up that way.
Just noticed the wwwwiiiide handlebars! Jebus!
Thanks again Chuck!
Edit: I mistakenly thought this was the “not available in the US W800 but it’s actually a W650 with a 724cc big bore kit installed… which does get the mind to thinking… 🙂
A big thank you to Rex Havoc at the Garage Project. Be sure to spend some time over there to check them out properly! They’re a well know outfit and their bikes have already been posted on the irreplaceable Pipeburn and BikeEXIF sites (please see the links section).
Thanks to Dave (AKA: pregrid) over on ADV rider for the permission to post this outstanding build.
In our correspondence he commented that: This has been a labor of love and I guess it shows. Just recently retired, this is my first build, well first BIKE build. Just got it running recently and the motor is really tired, So motor is out, paint work is being done (wait’ll you see THAT). Thanks for noticing
I’ve asked him to keep us up to date on his progress. I suspect that you’ve got some serious skills there Dave. especially for a first build.
