Thats a NSR500 Honda and the bottom pipes are like that so they have ground clearance and exit on the right hand side of the bike. That engine is sitting as it would in the bike....

A modest "racing" modification back in the day. Just the way I like it, now to much.

Great photo, Viktor. Do you have a link to the photo site? RR

Thanks, Sam! Darned good looking "conservative cafe." I like it, and I've got this excellent stone stock K2 I'm ready to lightly (bolt on) mod! I do believe that a set of drilled "M" bars and one of our Giuliari repro seats will get 'er done!

Sam was first

he was quite glad that someone read his site

take a look at his site, it's quite interesting photos from Swedish "motor culture"

Is this guy a member here? I saw his bike on the cycleX fbook page. Is that frame one-off or is it modified from something else? Looks fun

Frame looks like a Bakker, or possibly a Martin.

looks to be on Morris Mag wheels too

Looking at the tailpiece on it i would put my money on Martin....

The do look a little like Morris' but Five spoke. So not Morris. Possible EPM or PVM? RR

Blitzburgh207 · « **Reply #9042 on:** March 14, 2013, 02:26:15 PM »

Oh yeah. I just googled martin cb750 and a ton of them came up. Are they originally a monoshock design? I saw both. 80's?

Tintop · « **Reply #9043 on:** March 14, 2013, 03:47:33 PM »

Here you go, couple of pages re Martin frames - http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=65072.0

Anyone know what he is using to split the front brake line?

brandEn · « **Reply #9045 on:** March 17, 2013, 04:18:01 PM »

Looks like he is using braided hydraulic line and a flare hydraulic tee. Pretty cool actually. This is the stuff used on airplanes as well.

Ricky_Racer · « **Reply #9046 on:** March 17, 2013, 05:22:30 PM »

Yep, and very clean approach! I wonder how he attached the nylon wire tie to the "T" fitting? RR

I'm more interested in what more modern bike the rotors came from that they just bolted up and were the correct diameter....
