The Look.
So how do I want it to look then, well cool cafe racer, I've now stripped off all the parts I don't want on it.
Now comes the fun bit (I hope), to start getting parts, I'll need…
In no particular order
Tank
Seat unit
Wheels
Forks
Engine parts
Lights
Brakes
Clocks (speedo)
I'm pretty sure of the seat unit and tank I want plus the forks and wheels, yes I'm looking at you Aprilia RS4 125 for these, it fits with my plan of modern and updated and hopefully different.
A very rough photoshop produced this.
I then need to think about the placement of essential items such as where do I put the battery, coil and reg/rec obviously whilst still going for the minimal look, do I feed the cables through the frame etc, all things to consider.
It'll be sometime before the engine gets looked at and it will stay in the frame until the overall look is sorted.
Oh and I've ordered a Haynes book of lies.
