It's got a steel braided brake line, but the original front brakes were crap to begin with.  The engine compression from the big ol' single is almost as good as the front brakes. laughingdp

Well, thanks to the hard working wrenches at G & H Cycles, easily Portland's 11th best motorcycle shop, the Smeshnoi Krolik is done. Mostly, as in how can projects like this ever really be finished.

Here's the pics:

Wow!  That's cool.  I don't know if it was worth the wait but it's cool Wink  That bike looks way better as a cafe than it did as a cruiser and yours looks better than most Rycas I've seen.  Love the flat paint and all the detail.

Just looking through the pics again, the transformation is amazing!  I've got to go out and take some measurements off a Rebel one day.  They're cheap and it's a parallel twin!

It is very cool to see such a transformation.  You took a tired old cruiser and gave it new live as a really neat little cafe bike.  waytogo

So what does the Cyrillic script on the side of the tank say?
