Cafe Racer CB250 PROJECT !!

[Bulla101 0]

Hello Guy & Gals,
My names Andy, i live on the Isle of Man and im just about to start a Cafe Racer build using a 1982 CB250, i know im gonna be looking for mechanical tips and advice at some point(s), so i thought where best to get some tech tips but a biking forum, anyway i collect the bike on wednesday night or should i say the box's of bits and ill be getting stuck in, if any one is interested in this project ill be happy to post pics showing progress.
I ride a 2009 Fireblade normally, hard not owning a sports bike when you live on the Isle of Man, 37 miles of race track on your door step!! but just fancied having a dabble with somthing a little less upto date.

Well i hope yopu guys can give me some pointers if i come unstuck with this project.

Cheers

Living on the IOM is mint madsod, when the weather is good mind, when its cold its freezing, but in the so called summer months its spot on, bikes every where and of course the obvious 37 mile play ground which gets sbused every sunday morning without fail, i take it you have visited before? was it for th TT or just a trip over?

welcome on board. Need the picks of any projects, just so us less technical guys can sit in awe of the builders on here

Just had a thought, how about a quick trip to see Andy??????? Sounds like an ideal ride out that one
