Now there are more detailed fotos available, so feast your eyes folks.

The Cafe Fabrication CB750 Café Racer
Wow!!! Way to go Cafe Fabrication [http://cafefabrications.blogspot.com/]
This CB750 café racer is build by Cafe Fabrications, and is on of the best CB750s I have seen in a long time!
The blend of new and old sometimes become strange looking, and does not fit older bikes – but this really works out well (surprisingly???).

The exhausts system is one of the most striking features of this bike, and gives the bike a Ducati race tail look. It most have taken some time to make that piece of tube?! I just love heat wrap, and this is no exception!!! F-ck it is a looker!!!
The modern front forks just make the bike look so much beefier, and the modern wheels are so much better to this style than spokes or 1970s mags.
The seat leather also got some TLC, it shows... And when you really look at this bike there are many custom pieces like the left engine cover, carp velocity stacks, and the VERY nice job that has been done on the frame cut in the tail – this is really pretty compared to the normal strait cut on most CB750 café racers!
All in all this is the best CB750 Café Racer of 2011 if you ask me.
The on and only CR750 Seat
Do you want to ride like Dick Mann on The Daytona 200 in 1970??? Well here is a step closer to fulfilling your dream....
This first class CR750 race seat comes strait out of Joe Kings Speedshop, and is sold for a bargaining prize of only 79US/$. What?!? Only five available, so get it while it is hot...

I have a seat just like this on my bike, and it is hot as hell!!!

A True Original
Not long ago a true original sand-casted CB750 was auctioned off on Ebay. The final bid landed on 16,999 US dollars.
The bike was originally restored and purchased 8 years ago, from the one and only CB750 sandcast guru Mr. Vic World [See: http://worldmotorcycles.com/]. This CB750 restorations wherer so good and authentic that Honda Motor Co. Japan purchased a similar Vic World CB750 for its Collection Hall museum – and proceeded to place it in the entry lobby. American Honda purchased one shortly thereafter.
Nothing has been replaced on this motorcycle (except engine oil). It still has the ultra-rare original tires (Bridgestone Super Speeds), which remain in very good condition, with no cracks, splits or dry-rot. The original paintwork is in fantastic condition, with no sun-fading whatsoever.
A beautiful bike that I hope will not be put into some private collection, so we will not have the privileged to look at it in the future.
