Does that bike use the engine as a stressed member? I’ve always wondered how many bikes did that. Wouldn’t be too hard tbh.
If ever I get round to making a cafe racer, I think I’ll go for something on the smaller side like a 250 or a 500 and make it as light as possible with things like that :)

Top fuel rails beat top fuel bikes. Plus I think I’d find the P1 seats slightly more comfortable?
