View Full Version : My new Cafe Racer *pics*
mikdavi84 September 6th, 2013, 11:53 AM Hey guys,
Got back from Afghanistan a week ago and managed to slap together my cafe racer, its the blue collar bobbers kit, got it painted locally and put woodcraft risers and the buell footpegs on it, as well as a new rear tire to match the one included in the kit and the BCB dogbones.
Once I get settled down I'll take some better pictures, but I think it turned out pretty well.

crazymadbastard September 6th, 2013, 12:08 PM that is a serious lean angle! :drool:
look forward to more pics! and welcome back!:thumbup:
csmith12 September 6th, 2013, 12:14 PM Hahahahahah, I was just joking around Mike but thanks for turning the image. With such a beautiful machine in the pic, it just didn't seem right to have it sideways. :thumbup:

:thumbup: No problem
mikdavi84 September 6th, 2013, 12:18 PM Also, I'm 6'5" and between the new seat position, the lowered pegs, and the woodcraft lowered risers with the extra long bars, it stretches the riding position out far enough to where I don't look like a gorilla ****ing a walnut down the road any more. So all in all, I am WAY more pleased with this thing than I actually expected to be, I wanted a fun project for when I returned home and this definitely fits the bill

Not any more. Picture was taken before I replaced it and put the dog bones on, I will have to take new pics

azian4lifz October 14th, 2013, 07:06 PM sweet dude couldn't tell it was a 250 from first glance I like it
crazymadbastard October 21st, 2013, 05:38 PM Looks great! How does it handle with the bigger front tire?
joshuajcrouch October 21st, 2013, 07:14 PM Probably the best executed cafe 250 I've seen yet. Nice and proportional.
girlracer October 27th, 2013, 11:18 AM love this
crimsondragon October 27th, 2013, 06:32 PM Other than the bar end mirrors, which I never liked, the rest look good.
CZroe May 18th, 2014, 07:56 AM DIY for the gauges?!
abandonhope16 May 18th, 2014, 10:57 AM DIY for the gauges?!
Its Blue Collar Bobber's bezel that uses the stock gauges. They won't sell it by itself though.
exploring/carolina May 28th, 2014, 06:58 PM Beautiful Build!
Just finished a Tracker build & probably going with Blue Collar kit for a Ninja 250 Cafe' build! Thanks for posting your build!
