Goldwing...Cafe Racer!!?!?!!??

1976 Honda Gold Wing GL1000 Cafe

You'd have to be nuts to try to build a cafe racer from a goldwing.

Unless you want a lot of old guys at a car show to oooh and ahhhh over your scoot.

iLike

off topic - but I started riding on a pristine CB750 My father was really big into his new goldwing at the time so we went to a whole bunch of Honda theme'd shows. Never failed that some older guy would walk over and tell me all about how this was the first bike he ever bought new, or the bike he learned to ride on, or something.. More than one occasion I would find some old guy sitting on it and have to shoo him off my bike.

Sweet, and not any more crazy than the Cafe'd BMW boxers of the era, which in my relative isolation growing up was my introduction to cool motorcycles. I still remember the pair of Boxer cafe die-cast toys my brother and I played with. The 76 models were no way as big as the ones of today. I like.

I really like it.

Did anyone click on the link below it?

That's crazy..

I don't know that I would consider that a cafe bike. More of a sport cruiser or something.

This is more of what I was thinking: Misc Motorcycle Photos - AndyW-inuk's Photos

They have had those in the UK, and maybe in other places in Europe for a few years at least. I think there are some pictures/video/links in one of the threads on this site.

Works great to get through stopped traffic and pull the diabled vehicle off the roadway (to the next exit) to get traffic going again. Many freeways around and in cities there isn't enough of a curb lane to get a tow truck through. It makes brilliant sense.

Or these ones?

um...yeah..... sorry about that... it was just like my first bike....sorta... :o
