Retroreflective! That's the word I couldn't think of earlier!
Thanks, you've been a huge help. I like the candy-over-chrome effect, but
the place I'd really love to use it would burn off the candy. Body-matched
exhaust, anyone? :D
Now I have good starting points. Thanks again!

On Apr 13,
Gotta go with the conventional wisdom here. The old school Harleys
and Indians looked good as bobbers, because they were big, beefy and
overdone. So minimalizing the underlying design actually enhanced
their lines, for the most part.
Metric bikes are already pretty minimal to start with, so
I thought that myself, thus my decision to go courier. Basically, café
with luggage of a harder sort. Plan to color match cases and such, and go
with the more angular style to match the angles on the very 80s 650. It
won't be /quite/ true to cafe standards, but it will definitely show cafe

I'm hoping to work something out with Graham to get a hold of a 1978 GS100L
he has been working on. Since we're talking about cafe' and other mods I
thought I'd post my photoshop of what I want to do with it. What I did was
chop the rear fender, cut down the Queen part of the seat, moved the rear

Yes, I didn't chop the frame at all just the rear fender, it looked like
the rear turn signals mount to the fender so I don't think it would require
cutting the frame to relocate them forward, might need to weld on a bracket
though.

Off the top of my head - I couldn't tell you. Mine are mounted through
the Vetter hard bag quick attach framework - so their location is not
stock. I don't think they are even the same lights as stock - but then
again I'm basing that on the physical size - and perhaps they just
look too big cause

Rigid is dumb. Suspension: handles better, saves your kidneys, gives you
more stuff to paint and chrome. Why would anyone CHOOSE rigid?

So I'm on vacation in Tuscon, AZ. My brother in law has a Harley and suggested
I rent one so we could ride. Unfortunately all the Harley's were rented. So I
paid almost double and rented a BMW R1200RT. 2 days 180 miles my opinion.
Big, but not too big. Good fit and finish. Comfortable riding

I'd take a CX650T or a GL650I, actually... I'd really love to know what
model turbo they put on those bikes, too. Love to match up some turbo
maps...
Most of the fairing and the trunk wouldn't survive on the GLi, however.

So I am planning to buy a 1991 Nighthawk as my first bike! I have
always loved the model. It's the perfect mix of the classic CB and the
newer street style CB's. I won't front. I don't know too much about
riding or the bike yet and I want to know everything there is to know
so I can have a long,

Ok. I get most of our humor here, but i just dont get this advice
and congrats on your bike. Best you can do for it is keep up with oil changes
with a mc spec oil, if that model is chain drive clean and lube the chain
often, and most important... Take a msf couse!

from albuquerque, new mexico. I came across a dusty old black creature
back in the corner behind some old aircaft parts and boxes. I've been
off two wheel's for about 8 years now. I've been blessed for over 30
years of great riding. TT 500's white, yellow, orange, bunch of
harley's. But any way,
