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!
A cow was killed to make my ass comfortable
[Hate me all you cow lovers!!!]

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...

A CR750 Race Rebel

It has been three decades since Dick Mann was manhandling his CR750 round the curves and bends of Daytona, but people are still racing these beautiful machines.

I took these pictures a fortnight ago at The Ring Djursland Track at the International Classic TT. And even though this CR750 did not get the checkered flag, it did not come in last.

You know this footage would be so much better if this was shot with better quality camera, steady hands, and better taste in music.
