      Cool New Project

      Well as Red Max has become an almost finish project, it's time for me to start a new one. Tonight I go pick up a 1974 Yamaha TX750 and begin my Cafe Races build. This project will probly keep me busy until next spring at which time I hope to have the girl on the road. This bike is a basket case, but for $300 I can't loose. the parts alone are worth over $1000.
      So I'll keep you all up to date on what I'm doing and I can always add a few pics.

      Sounds like a lot of fun. Bikes are so easy to work on simply because they're so small compared to a car! Make sure to post some pics for us.

      Nice. So, what do you have to do to it to convert it into a cafe? I've heard of lots of guys doing that, just never seen it done.
