    gsx550 cafe racer

    https://fbcdn-photos-g-a.akamaihd.ne...24dd259735c1f9

    hey all,

    I have a gsx550 cafe racer possibly up for grabs or trades! reasonably tidy for age fresh from revin wof and reg, looking for a savage 650 bobber or similar.

    unbelievably its on the lams list and is incredibly quick for a learner approved bike

    ks are unknown as it has a new speedo

    Nice cr.
    Café racers a bobbers becoming popular now. Even more overseas so I guess we will catch up.
    Its easy to calculate what they owe as mines going to reach 6k plus countless hours but working out what they are worth is the hard part.
    Made my one to keep it unless I get a silly offer I cant refuse.

    Good luck. Guess its about finding the right person that counts to buy it.

    Had one of them, was an E. Didn't look as nice as that though. Good luck with your sale/trade.
    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    Did you need a mirror on the right hand side for WOF or did they let it slide.
    Im hoping mine looks half as good as yours does when finished.

    It went through revn with just 1 mirror, didn't have any when it went in so was just a quick fix for its recheck. Been meaning to put new ones on but haven't got around to it.
    just buy this 1, already complete!

    They walked around it and ticked off some paperwork.. After all, in 2015 who is a vinz inspector to question a plates orientation.

    but in all honesty it didn't have a plate when it went for its Vin. It can't go anywhere else and any less angle it starts being shredded by the Tyre.
