hi guys,
has anyone cut the front end which holds the light off, I am cutting the bike down into a café racer type set up, I've seen pics but can't get a close up to see how its been done.

has there been talk about this before, has someone got pics they can post?

thanks

Pat Conlon

Don't do that.

You have a perimeter frame and that center piece ties together the left/right sides.
If you do it, you will crash and die. Are you ready to die?

If you want the cafe racer look, live with the center piece, or get a backbone type frame...
Unless of course, you really want to die.
