Honda CB200 Café Racer

To pay tribute to the Ace Cafe - the birthplace of the café racer, Richard Weslow and his good friend Kurt Schwengle built this beautiful little 1976 CB200 to show at the Rocker Box Motofest in Milwaukee Wisconsin. The guys at Moto-Scoot in Milwaukee helped him with parts and tires, and the folks at T/A Graphics did the checkered tank and the historic '59' fender paintwork. Apparently if you look close at the graphics there's even a picture of Richard's late grandad who introduced him to motorbikes as a kid. Richard is now in the process of building a 1973 68hp mono shock RD350 for the Rocker Box 2010 which we will do a follow up article when complete. To view more outstanding pics of this vintage café racer visit Richard's Flickr page.

hideous. I smell a burnt exhaust valve...

Looks like a leprechaun took a $h!% all over what could have been a nice bike.
