Title: 750 caffe racer, finished but not finished
Post by: Lore on April 06, 2011, 12:41:27 AM
Hi
I'd like to show you my monster, although I can't take the credit for all mods made on him.

I bought it from a guy who made all the changes except he didn't have licence plate holder and had to fancy front turn lights  ;D

i have problem with these frame pipes, it has holes I can't close  :-[ (have to figure something out) I know about plugs but they also have logitudinal holes  ???

a get rid of this can,and bought original side air box

too fancy led lights  ;D sold them

lot of dust  >:( sorry for that

to sum up
my cafe race has front fork from duc 749,
 dual front disc, brembo oro pump and brakes from 916,
 have k&n air filter,
 motogadget instrument (masures even top rpm)  [thumbsup] ,
rear tyre is 180 instead of original 160  [thumbsup] had to make some adjustment on the rim for fitting chain (the owner before me did it)
exhaust pipes are wrapped with termotech tape, and they are not termignoni  :( it's devil, I found out later on. But thes sound absolutly great  [thumbsup] also made db killers , because our laws demand "silent" exhaust . Limit is 93 db  [bang] But I had them only for technical inspection  ;D when I registered it  [thumbsup]


I have a lot of small things to do to make it just as I want it , but money is a little problem  [roll]

Some really nice parts on there...how do you like the P&S(?) rearsets?

WRT the chopped (hacked) frame tubes in the back, trim the ends evenly and pop in some frame plugs.  Motostrano has STMs in a range of colors and sizes (pipe ID) on their website - you should be able to find something you'll like [thumbsup]

i think what he's saying is that there are like SLOTS in the tubes... take a close look.

I have, but sadly don't have time and money. We have Duc meeting in Cro, and I'm not going  :( :-[ :'(  Fuel is expensive now more than ever. Also have some problems with carbs on monster  ???
We are lucky to ride on weekends...
