I had already started a "build thread" already on a popular custom motorcycle forum to document my café racer motorcycle build, but someone told me I should also start a blog as well. I will catch you up on the progress so far and also provide updates in the future as the bike project progresses.
I will be sharing some how-to's on not only how to maximize your bike's performance and handling., but also how to make it look sweet!.
Many specialty tools will also be reviewed and discussed...
