Thank You For Staying

After a small month away from this blog, due to internet problems, I am back!

And I am really happy to see that you are still out there! Yesterday Cling On For Dear Life had more than 400+ hits, and I had 3 personal e-mails in my inbox with greetings from followers saying welcome back.

This being a one man operation, I truly appreciate the support from you people. So thank you very much, and thank you for staying.

I have a hard drive full of cool CB750 stuff for you guys, so stay tuned for more Rock N Roll.

With regards,

Bob Johnson - Old School Cafe Racer

I just came across Mr. Bob Johnson from old school cafe racer . His CB750 Café Racers are super classy, and looks like they are well made and with nice details.

I just wanted to show you some of his CB750s, and let you know about the man.

Local Invitation

The All Chrome CB750 Café Racer

In July I posted a super cool all chromed up CB750 Café Racer here at Cling on for dear life. Due to the old Japanese flag on the seat, I associated it with emperor ruled Japan, and titled it “The Kamikaze CB750”.  

Moments later I got a comment from my partner in crime, Mr. Paulo, who runs Joe Kings Helmets Speedshop. He knew the owner of the bike, and was building a set of four into four CR750 exhaust pipes (for his own CR750 replica) with him.

Paulo informed me that the bike was not build in Japan, but was from Brazil. And even better, he also send more cool pictures of the bike.

People, I am sorry that the former post gave the impression that it was a Japanese bike, but I am really happy that I was informed of this, so you could all benefit from more info and material on this super nice CB750.

The Latest Progress

My CB750 Café Racer project is standing still at the moment due to the fact that our worhshop Coffee & Pistons are moving to a bigger and better workshop, and I am personally also moving to a bigger and better home. 

All good, but no motorcycle work... But here are the latest progress for you people to see.

 Engine has been cleaned to match the rest of the bike

 Dual drilled discs & heatwrap on the headers

 16mm brakecylinder to match the dual disc conversion

 Rear sets as cool as your mother in law's love - that is cold!

Death Of A CR750 - The Ralph Bryan Crash

The legendary victory of Dick Mann at the Daytona 200 in 1970, was not without loses. Ralph Bryan crashed during the practice and his CR750 burned dramatically due to the high amount of highly flammable magnesium used in building the racer. This is a montage of the event...
