Saw this on another forum, probably a repost but here goes.

A brand new cafe racer conversion kit or complete bike:

Sorry about the flash content, some people don't get the message.

Very cool since it is based on a currently produced machine. Wish I had the cash for the kit, I'd start looking for a used bike to put it on.

I like the look, but I suppose it would be pretty doggy and handle not so good.

Something someone could easily build in the garage from an old CB or whatnot.

Apparently Suzuki builds a "standard" based on the Savage cruiser that's sold in Japan. That bike is a lot like it.

It's a shame these guys can't get Blast engines. I would have loved a Ruby:

A skinnier front tire and more front brake would be good.

I really like that.

EDIT: I really like that for a lot less money. Looking at the kit prices and for what you get, it seems to cost about twice what it should.

I always thought that the blast's rear pulley was the worst aspect of it.
Narrow belt, wide pulley plus looks like it weighs a ton.

It need to go on a diet in a milling machine.

there is a blast on ebay with a XB swingarm and big rear tire. It looks like a different bike with a small rear sprocket

Thats COOL. I posted on the MAC site they should consider the 650 Suzuki single engine as a belated substitute for the Blast engine they can no longer get.
I want a Savage now.

By default all I see is a little "F" on the screen. Flash has it's places, but constructing entire web pages is not one of them.
