Dutchbike Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Nice bike indeed, although I somehow like the original TR1 as well a bike which never became popular, maybe because it's different rear section ( one of the first bikes which had a rear hugger ?) Another forgotten Yamaha from that era is the XZ 550 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreandre Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 (edited) Big change for me - HD's for ever it seems. Same here..HDs are a manly bike IMO and i have had many of them, but lately , since i have apparently morphed into a puny near 70 yo i need to look at less manly bikes...as long as i'm still riding daily as i do, i have no probs drooling over custom bikes other than HD.... EDIT..its nice to see people making these radical make overs of bikes that may have just been dumped...eye candy....better than most of the ''cookie-cutter"..same-same bikes on the market now...

AllanB Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Hats off to guys that put some thought and work into these bike, almost Cafe Racer philosophy, but with the cash of today. Very nice job though. We need an Ace Cafe in Thailand, where are the entrepreneurs? This bike would look good turning up there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
