I feel the retro vibe now and then, but it isnt the cafe racer, its the Mad Max GS1100 / Kawi Z1 thing. 4 bell mouth carbs and a dust bin fairing like the 'goose' or 'Bubba Zenetti' rode in Mad Max.

I've seen too many old school chopper guys (thanks to my ex) sweat, get pissed off, and about break their foot to think that would ever be sexy! It's even funnier when the bikes owner gets so tired his buddies start taking turns trying to start it!
